Support high-stakes moments such as launches, on-orbit operations and operational rehearsals, where the tools have to just work.
About you
You care about craft and about the people who use what you build. You're comfortable owning ambiguous problems, balancing several priorities at once, and staying calm under pressure. You have deep frontend engineering skills, enjoy making complex systems understandable, and like turning data into decisions. Experience with design systems, performance tuning or observability is a plus. Familiarity with space or network systems is welcome but not required; you'll learn the domain here.
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.
About the team
The Leo Ground Control Console team owns the operational tooling used across Amazon Leo, on the ground and in orbit. We build a shared platform that is scalable, reliable, adaptable and fast, so every team at Leo can deliver tools their users rely on. We're a small, high-ownership team that ships quickly, measures its impact, and invests in the tools and practices that make the whole organization more productive.
