Project Leo is Amazon’s low Earth orbit satellite broadband network. Its mission is to deliver fast, reliable internet to customers and communities around the world, and we’ve designed the system with the capacity, flexibility, and performance to serve a wide range of customers, from individual households to schools, hospitals, businesses, government agencies, and other 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. The Production Test Engineer will support test operators and operations by coordinating, maintaining, and improving testing hardware and software capabilities for a variety of different propulsion subsystems: PCBAs, feed systems, electric propulsion thrusters, tanks, and integrated propulsion systems. The Propulsion Test Engineer will support existing test processes and hardware in order to ensure the needed test coverage is achieved at production rates. This will include coordinating tests, training test operators, resolving test nonconformances, building up additional test stations, and implementing methods of optimizing testing. In support of maintaining the production delivery rate, this position is intended to support weekend operations after a on-boarding period of weekday support. Key job responsibilities Key job responsibilities - There are 2 shift options available for this position. First is Wednesday - Saturday (10 hour shifts). Second is Saturday through Tuesday (10 hour shifts). - Disposition and resolve test failures and flight hardware non-conformances - Improve test automation, data acquisition, and data analysis to improve test efficiency and cycle times - Work with hardware subsystem owners to ensure test coverage is maintained across flight hardware design update cycles - Work with hardware subsystem owners to refine test requirements and the methodologies to test against those requirements - Train operators in the execution of developed testing and processes. A day in the life You will coordinate and support a variety of hardware tests of propulsion subsystems to ensure the hardware meets acceptance requirements for flight. You will also work closely with multiple internal engineering teams to identify process improvements, disposition and resolve non-conformances, and generally improve test efficiency. To be successful in the fast-paced environment, you will need to be detail oriented and motivated to apply your technical expertise to optimize your work to the highest standards of execution. About the team The Leo Propulsion Team is responsible for the design and development of the propulsion system which provides maneuvering capability to the spacecraft. The Propulsion Team is made up of a variety of sub-teams which are responsible for various aspects of the development and production process, such as mechanical design, systems engineering, subject matter experts, manufacturing, and test. This integrated team structure allows direct communication and rapid process feedback while also promoting close collaboration across the team.
