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 serves people and organizations operating in locations without reliable connectivity.
As a mechanical engineer within the propulsion team you will sustain and improve propulsion hardware across high-volume production and on-orbit operation, designing upgrades, resolving anomalies, and driving hardware reliability at scale. You will combine analytical rigor with hands-on ownership to conduct root-cause investigations and design corrective solutions that keep hardware lightweight, cost-effective, and performing consistently at scale. This is a hands-on role which requires collaboration across functional boundaries to disposition non-conformances, design and release engineering changes, and maintain the structural, thermal-mechanical, fluid, and packaging hardware that underpins the propulsion system.
