    Description

    Amazon Leo is an initiative to increase global broadband access through a constellation of over 3,000 satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO). Its mission is to bring fast, affordable broadband to unserved and underserved communities around the world. Amazon Leo will help close the digital divide by delivering fast, affordable broadband to a wide range of customers, including consumers, businesses, government agencies, and other organizations operating in places without reliable connectivity.

    • Troubleshoot eBGP peering issues with upstream providers, IXPs, and customers, including prefix advertisement problems, route leaks, and path anomalies.
    • 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.
    • Drive operational readiness and support planning for new network features, firmware rollouts, SD-WAN deployments, and regional launches.
    • Participate in customer communications for major incidents and complex technical engagements, ensuring clarity, accountability, and technical excellence.
    • 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.
