Amazon's Kuiper Legal team is looking for a talented Program Manager to help us support Project Kuiper -- Amazon's 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.

This role will support the legal teams advising Kuiper organizations dedicated to engineering, supply chain, licensing, compliance, security, deals, and more. You will also get to talk about space...a lot.

The successful candidate must be an avid learner and enthusiastic about technology; enjoy working hard, reaching for the stars, and solving challenging problems at warp speed; operate, innovate and ultimately deliver results with limited direction; and thrive in team-oriented environments and ambiguous situations.

This position will be based in Redmond, WA. Limited travel, domestic and international, will be required. No intergalactic travel is required at this time.

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.
