Amazon Leo is an initiative to increase global broadband access through a constellation of 3,236 satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO). Its mission is to bring fast, affordable broadband to unserved and underserved communities around the world. Amazon Leo will help close the digital divide by delivering fast, affordable broadband to a wide range of customers, including consumers, businesses, government agencies, and other organizations operating in places without reliable connectivity. As a Mission Operations Engineer on the Optical Inter-Satellite Link (OISL) team, you will own and execute the overall operational success of these payload and bus functions at a systems level and coordinate between engineering teams across ground, network, and space systems to achieve it. Because of the scale of the mission, you will be focused on driving automation and operational excellence — identifying areas of improvement and initiating changes to improve the productivity of the fleet and optical network. You will coordinate and prepare for each launch and on-orbit demonstrations, design and conduct operational rehearsals, and drive automation efforts with scalability in mind, ensuring that the constellation functions at peak performance with little-to-no manual intervention. You will develop concepts for OISL network operation for missions and experiments, participate in launch and early operations, develop and perform analysis on system data, and identify areas and mechanisms for further improvement. The ideal candidate will be detail-oriented, have strong verbal and written communication skills, strong organizational skills, be able to juggle multiple tasks at once, be able to work independently, and maintain professionalism under pressure. You should have knowledge in space system design, optical systems, and software engineering practices.
