Full Job Description
Project Kuiper is Amazon’s low Earth orbit satellite broadband network. Its mission is to deliver fast, reliable internet to customers and communities around the world, and we’ve designed the system with the capacity, flexibility, and performance to serve a wide range of customers, from individual households to schools, hospitals, businesses, government agencies, and other organizations operating in locations without reliable connectivity. Export Control Requirement: Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum. The success of Kuiper depends on the quality, reliability, cost, integration, throughput, and security of the products delivered. It is a fast-paced, dynamic environment. As part of the Kuiper team, you will solve difficult problems where resolutions have high impact, and help create a brand new set of launch site processes and standards. To be successful you need to be highly motivated and detail oriented while maintaining the highest standards of execution. The Propellant Loading Engineer will lead a team of technicians through satellite battery charging, propellant loading, post-load testing, and securing operations on second shift. The propellant loading system commodities consist of cryogenic liquid Nitrogen and high-pressure gaseous Argon and Krypton; experience with cryogenic and/or high-pressure fluids systems preferred, especially in spaceflight/launch operations settings. The Engineer performs satellite load and system test per propulsion and satellite requirements, authors and updates operational procedures, implements process controls, and supports continuous improvement. The Engineer will initiate and disposition nonconformances when they arise, working closely with design, manufacturing, and quality teams as required to execute and resolve issues. The ideal candidat
