Description

Project Kuiper is an initiative to increase global broadband access through a constellation of 3,236 satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO).

The role will interface with cross-functional engineering, program/product management and commodity sourcing teams including suppliers to develop and manage the PCBA supply value stream for Kuiper.

Tackle challenging, novel situations every day and given the size of this initiative, you’ll have the opportunity to work with multiple technical teams across Amazon.

Along the way, we guarantee that you’ll learn a ton, have fun and make a positive impact on millions of people.

Your ability to take large, complex projects, break them into manageable pieces, and deliver timely results is invaluable. You will work with a team of experts and drive the team to successfully drive business goals.
