Description

We are seeking a stellar Program Manager to join the Global Service Compliance (GSC) team supporting Amazon’s Project Kuiper. Amazon’s Project Kuiper is an initiative to launch a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites that will provide low-latency, high-speed broadband connectivity to unserved and underserved communities around the world. We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic about technology, enjoys being continually challenged, and demonstrates sound judgment even in ambiguous situations.

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.

Key job responsibilities

Working closely with Kuiper legal, engineering, accounting, tax and finance teams, you will develop out-of-this-world strategies for operationalizing requirements in creative ways that allow Kuiper to meet compliance requirements. As a Program Manager for Kuiper GSC, you will support requirements review and responsive requirements writing, as well as testing for business operationalization. You will also focus on the development, implementation, and improvement of systems Kuiper implements to enable compliance with extensive legal and regulatory obligations.

To be successful in this role, you must be able to work efficiently and independently in a fast-paced environment. You will be called on to manage projects and program mechanisms, facilitate agreement between teams with different – and sometimes competing – priorities, escalate or act with appropriate urgency to move the program forward even in the face of ambiguity, and communicate clearly both verbally and in writing.
