Job description

Amazon Leo is Amazon's low Earth orbit satellite network. Our mission is to deliver fast, reliable internet connectivity to customers beyond the reach of existing networks. From individual households to schools, hospitals, businesses, and government agencies, Amazon Leo will serve people and 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. As a member of the Amazon Leo's Materials team, you will play a crucial role in developing advanced materials and processes that enable the cost-effective and reliable production of our satellites. You will be responsible for conducting hands-on laboratory testing and failure analysis of flight hardware and raw stock materials, as well as developing next generation materials to improve satellite performance.

You will work closely with external vendors to establish process control and identify new opportunities for product development and improvement.
