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. This senior Structural Analysis Engineer will lead the structural analysis and verification of a satellite subsystem or major structural area, with deep expertise in dynamics. They must have a strong background in spacecraft structural development and understand the balance between engineering judgment and analysis rigor, and when each is appropriate. They will be able to contribute from day one, defining the approach when requirements and interfaces are not fully defined, and raising the quality of the team's analysis through the methods, tools, and reviews they put in place. ### 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 - Lead structural analysis and verification of a satellite subsystem or major structural area, from requirements through qualification - Define requirements, interfaces, analysis approaches, and verification strategies from incomplete or evolving direction - Lead dynamic analysis and test planning: derive component loads and test levels from launch vehicle and system loads, determine qualification and acceptance margins, and plan random vibration, sine, shock, and acoustic verification - Own and verify subsystem and system-level FEMs, and correlate models to test data - Document stress analysis substantiating engineering drawings and documents, and review the analysis of other engineers for rigor and consistency - Support test execution, analyze results, and close out verification of structural requirements - Support production and operations through analysis of non-conformances, failure investigations, and improvements, working with MRB and liaison partners on complex dispositions - Drive configuration development and trade studies with clear decision criteria - Work with suppliers, manufacturing, test, and systems engineering to align on loads, interfaces, and verification - Create and improve analysis methods, tools, and processes that reduce repeat issues across the team - Mentor and develop engineers, and lead technical discussions in internal and external design reviews, technical interchange meetings (TIMs), and program gates (PDR/CDR) ### A day in the life This Sr Structural Analysis Engineer will be a technical leader and subject matter expert for their area of the satellite. They will balance hands-on analysis with mentoring and review: building and checking FEMs, completing classical hand calculations, performing dynamic strength analysis, correlating models with test results, and interfacing with design, test, and supplier teams. They will represent Structural Integrity and Analysis in cross-functional forums to align on structural design and verification approaches. ### About the team The Structural Analysis team is responsible for Structural Integrity of not only the spacecraft but all supporting flight and ground support hardware across the program, inside and outside of the Mechanical Engineering group. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Oct 15, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 18, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 18, 2026 - Listed for: 3 days - Location: US, WA, Redmond[Apply on Amazon’s careers site →](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/10579522/sr-structural-analysis-engineer-leo-structural-analysis-team) ## More jobs at Amazon ### [ASIC Engineer Early Career - 2027, Project Leo](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/14f933189515141b14fa/) US, WA, Redmond ### [Aerospace Hardware Development Engineer, LEO](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/c8697ee12cbef96b127b/) US, WA, Redmond ### [Antenna & RF Engineer, Amazon Leo](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/dbdc06169433b8675f96/) US, WA, Redmond ### [Antenna & RF Engineer, Amazon Leo Antenna Development](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/3989c0345bbde3c8adce/) US, WA, Redmond ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Structural Analysis Engineer - Level 3](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/lockheed-martin/jobs/e5fbecd3cf886ae26a2f/) Lockheed Martin · Fort Worth, TX ### [Structural Analysis Engineer – Level 2](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/northrop-grumman/jobs/5a3a14e27552a3499f9a/) Northrop Grumman · United States-California-San Diego ### [Senior Mechanical Engineer - Structural/Thermal Analysis](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/bae-systems/jobs/737790bde244cbff3f1e/) BAE Systems · Merrimack, New Hampshire, United States ### [Sr. Principal Mechanical Engineer (Structural Analysis SME)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/bae-systems/jobs/81594b421425afe5a0e9/) BAE Systems · Nashua, New Hampshire, United States ### [Structural Analysis Sr.](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/lockheed-martin/jobs/72657d21004b1d62b513/) Lockheed Martin · Orlando, FL [Jobs in Redmond, WA](/locations/us/wa/redmond/)[Jobs in Washington](/locations/us-wa/)[Operations jobs](/functions/operations/) OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
