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.

As part of the Global Enterprise Services (GES), the Customer Delivery Engineer (CDE) for Amazon Leo serves as the primary technical authority and trusted advisor for customers integrating with the Leo. This role bridges the gap between customer needs and Amazon Leo"s technical capabilities driving successful implementation, managing integration activities, and ensuring long-term customer success. The CDE is expected to deliver architectural guidance to customers, lead implementation and configuration activities through hands-on engagement, and provide support to business development and internal teams.

As a CDE you will engage with customers from contract execution, guiding them through the full lifecycle of network and backoffice integration from initial architecture design, implementation and deployment of system configurations, development of code and scripts to optimize and automate functions that meet customer needs, testing, and establishing an ongoing support funnel across the post-sales organization. The CDE operates at the intersection of networking, cloud services, backoffice and business systems, and customer enablement, providing white-glove technical guidance that accelerates customer time-to-value with Amazon Leo.

The CDE is a customer-facing individual who works together with Customer Delivery Managers (CDMs), Partner Development Managers (PDMs), and Technical Program Managers (TPMs) on customer onboarding activities, and collaborate with Product Managers, Engineering and Solutions Architects to represent external customers' needs. If you are exceptionally motivated and passionate about enabling customers on Leo, then we encourage you to join us, working in a customer-obsessed environment that welcomes innovation and development of automation tools, internal and external processes, while working with talented people in the industry to make the Leo goal a reality.

  • Provide on-site and remote support to Customers during demonstrations, training sessions, trials, workshops, and systems deployment planning meetings. Support on-site customer meetings to complete final design for custom network and backoffice integrations.
  • Represent Amazon Leo during customer testing and validation procedures, collaborating with internal and external stakeholders on definition of testing procedures and infrastructure, and supporting onsite or remote testing activities until final customer acceptance is achieved.
  • Work with sector and core GES leads guiding Engineering activities, defining the baseline operational runbooks, coordinating development of tooling and mechanisms, and sharing knowledge within the organization through mentoring, training, and creating reusable artifacts
  • Provide technical support to internal and external customers including problem troubleshooting and resolution of newly fielded solutions.

About the Company

Amazon.com Inc

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.
