DESCRIPTION
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.
One of the most ambitious missions that Kuiper has undertaken to date, the Kuiper satellite constellation, is our solution to providing reliable internet around the world.
We are looking for talented engineers to help process Kuiper satellites to prepare them for launch into Low Earth Orbit.
The success of Kuiper depends on the quality, reliability, cost, integration, throughput, and security of the products that you deliver.
If you seek a fast-paced, dynamic environment; if you thrive on solving difficult problems where resolutions have high impact;
and if you love the challenge of building something from scratch, then this role will be an ideal next career step. To be successful you need to be highly motivated and detail oriented while showing the highest standards of execution.
The Mgr, Test Rack Engineering will supervise and lead a team that is matrixed across three product line teams to include satellite separation systems and Electrical Ground Support Equipment.
