    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.

    Key job responsibilities

    Design and implement commerce applications and services that power the end-to-end customer experience for Amazon"s satellite connectivity offering.

    Collaborate with product managers, UX designers, marketing, and backend service teams to translate customer and business needs into accessible, scalable solutions that work across devices and browsers.

    Leverage generative AI tools and agentic development workflows to accelerate feature delivery, and identify opportunities to improve infrastructure using AWS native services.

    Participate actively in code reviews, providing constructive feedback to teammates while coaching others on best practices, design patterns, and maintainable coding standards.

    Write clear documentation for your team"s software, train new team members on how it is constructed and operated, and drive root-cause resolution for operational issues.

    A day in the life

    You might start your morning reviewing a pull request from a teammate, suggesting improvements to a mobile app design pattern and performance. After standup, you pick up a new feature that doesn"t have a clear precedent yet, sketching out an approach with your product manager before writing code. In the afternoon, you pair with a designer to refine interaction details for an upcoming launch, then dig into an operational metric that looks off, tracing it to a rendering edge case you fix before it reaches customers.

    About the team

    We are part of the Amazon Leo Commerce engineering organization, building the e-commerce experience for a global satellite connectivity customer base. Our team works closely with backend commerce services, product, marketing, and business partners to launch new experiences from scratch. We are scaling the team and investing in AI-based development and operational workflows to meet the growing needs of our customers. If you are looking for a place where you can grow your expertise by tackling new problems regularly alongside an inclusive group of engineers, we would be glad to have you.

    About Company

    At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

    Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles
    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
