Software Dev Engineer II, Amazon Leo

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. Developer Experience organization owns the entire path from commit to satellite. This is a unique opportunity to offer this scope to platform engineers. We will build a unified platform that empower Leo engineers to see their code affect satellite operations within days not weeks, months or a quarter. We will build a self-service platform as the intelligence layer, to empower engineers with real-time root cause attribution and triaging in CT production, conversational analytics agents, automated narrative generation and potential bugs discovery capabilities. CT OTA Rolling out team is looking for an SDE to drive the Over-The-Air (OTA) software updates to millions of Customer Terminals (CTs) across multiple hardware variants in the field. You'll own the systems that ensure every CT from factory-fresh to years-deployed can be safely, reliably, and rapidly updated at massive scale. This is a high-impact role at the intersection of distributed systems, embedded software delivery, and fleet management. You'll work closely wi [... source excerpt omitted ...] ndidates 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. Key job responsibilities A successful engineer in this role is : - Have experience with OTA update systems, fleet management platforms, or large-scale device management (IoT, mobile, embedded, or similar) - Have experience with staged/progressive rollout strategies and automated release safety mechanisms - Have experience building observability and anomaly detection for device fleets - Highly analytical: You solve problems in ways that can be backed up with verifiable data. You focus on driving processes, tools [... source excerpt omitted ...] new problem spaces with unique constraints and thus non-obvious solutions; you’re quick to identify any gaps in the team and the right person to fill them to best deliver value to customers. - Invent and simplify: You will apply the first principal thinking into your work and find a simple solution to tackle the fundamental problem. A day in the life A Software Development Engineer works closely with Principal Engineer, Sr. Principal Engineer to deal with ambiguity and define technical strategy. The engineer will also work with the release teams to deeply understand the current workflow, use cases, pain points, inefficiency and come up with innovative simple solution. Basic q
