    Job Description

    Amazon Leo is delivering fast, reliable internet to customers and communities beyond the reach of traditional networks. With thousands of satellites in low Earth orbit and a full-scale constellation deployment underway, we are bridging the digital divide for households, schools, hospitals, businesses, and governments in the most remote places on the planet. Our enterprise customers rely on seamless connectivity into AWS environments, making this role critical to enabling secure, high-performance cloud integration at the edge of space. Welcome to the space industry, and internet infrastructure at a scale never attempted before.

We are looking for an SME who thrives in high-pressure environments and brings the technical depth to keep a space-based global network delivering for customers worldwide.

    Key job responsibilities

    • Provide in-depth technical guidance to customers and internal teams during high-severity incidents, partnering with development and operations teams to drive rapid resolution.
    • Perform detailed root cause analysis (RCA) for customer-impacting events, identifying systemic issues and collaborating on long-term fixes.
    • Troubleshoot SD-WAN/SDN connectivity issues across ISP backbone and customer edge networks, identifying misconfigurations and service-impacting faults.
    • Proactively identify support gaps and contribute to tooling, diagnostics, and automation that reduce time to resolution and improve customer experience.
    • Develop troubleshooting playbooks, technical guides, and knowledge base articles to enhance case deflection and onboarding of new support engineers.
    • Mentor junior support engineers, providing case coaching, knowledge transfer, and technical escalation support.
    • Work in a rotating shift schedule, including weekdays and weekends, with the requirement to be available for on-call duties as needed to ensure continuous operational coverage.

    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.
