120 Amazon Reliability Manager Jobs Hiring Near You

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.
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.
We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Senior Reliability Engineer to join the Hardware Reliability Engineering team within the satellite development organization. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in electronics manufacturing processes, hardware reliability concepts, and reliability test practices, with a focus on ensuring the functional reliability and performance of satellite hardware systems in the harsh environment of space. You will be responsible for developing and implementing design-for-reliability best practices, conducting rigorous testing, and analyzing on-orbit data to enhance the robustness of Amazon Leo satellite hardware.
You will play an important role across key dimensions of a product’s lifecycle: design trades, product development and release, manufacturing process qualification, supply chain reliability, environmental stress screens, and on-orbit fault and failure investigations. You will be a key member of a high-performance team responsible for delivering a reliable satellite constellation.
