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 role is for a highly dynamic and motivated individual that will work on development hardware to meet the needs of Amazon Leo. We are looking for an individual who works well with engineering teams under minimal oversight to take hardware from concept to production. You'll partner directly with design engineers to iterate hardware quickly and qualify it for space, following that hardware through the full arc of development — initial prototyping, development builds, testing, and rigorous qualification testing. You'll also help shape the lab spaces themselves, adapting layout and equipment as designs change to keep labs clean, well-organized, and set up to serve their engineering customers. This will be an R&D focused position, and the work covers the full range of hardware development lab support — assembly, troubleshooting, testing, equipment upkeep, and documentation — so expect the day-to-day to shift as project needs change. ### 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 - Able to work with minimal guidance and instruction - Partner directly with design engineers to iterate hardware quickly, optimize manufacturability, and qualify hardware for space - Support hardware through the full development arc — initial prototyping, development builds, testing, and rigorous qualification testing - Mechanical and electrical assembly of various spacecraft mechanisms - Troubleshoot hardware and test setup issues, working through problems to root cause - Engineer and adapt lab spaces and equipment to meet evolving customer needs, keeping labs clean, organized, and functioning well for their intended purpose, including tracking equipment calibrations - Develop custom automation equipment to support test and build needs - Maintain clear work documentation, including build notes and test records - Accurately estimate time required to complete tasks, and meet deadlines as assigned - Participate constructively and take ownership in the success of interdisciplinary projects - Familiarity with aerospace/space quality standards for mechanical and electrical components ### About the team The Amazon Leo Development Operations (DevOps) team builds and maintains the labs and hardware infrastructure that let engineering teams design, prototype, and test satellite hardware quickly. We support projects from first prototype through qualification testing, and our team members cross-train across assembly, test, and lab equipment so we can flex to wherever the work is needed. Priorities shift fast as designs evolve, and you'll often move between projects to keep pace with what engineering teams need next. We take pride in keeping our labs and equipment in excellent shape, and we hold ourselves to a high standard because the hardware we build and test directly impacts what makes it to space. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Oct 16, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 18, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 18, 2026 - Listed for: 2 days - Location: US, WA, Redmond[Apply on Amazon’s careers site →](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/10581020/spacecraft-hardware-development-specialist-amazon-leo-devops) ## More jobs at Amazon ### [CMM Programmer- 2nd Shift, Amazon Leo](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/55094f676ffe256baeea/) US, WA, Redmond ### [Dev Harnessing Technician II, Amazon Leo DevOps](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/8c52c842ce27f115879b/) US, WA, Redmond ### [Embedded SDE, Flight Software - Avionics Endpoint](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/bbabe869576306bf957a/) US, WA, Redmond ### [Embedded Senior Software Engineer, Project Leo Customer Terminals](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/bd872b94d896daa9cb72/) US, WA, Redmond ### [Embedded Software Dev Engineer, Amazon Leo Antenna Development](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/684b71bdcd6e2032220b/) US, WA, Redmond ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Spacecraft Integration & Test Manager](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/lockheed-martin/jobs/fe24ecbf3fd78f9408fc/) Lockheed Martin · Littleton, CO ### [Senior Project Engineer – Military GPS Hardware Development (Hybrid & Relocation Assistance Available)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/bae-systems/jobs/4f315f578c908cf23c35/) BAE Systems · Cedar Rapids, Iowa, United States ### [Engineer Senior – Spacecraft Optical Communications - $20K Sign On Bonus](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/bae-systems/jobs/8588d3ce97f97d004fd2/) BAE Systems · Boulder, Colorado, United States ### [Modem Hardware Design Verification Engineer – AI Driven Next Gen Modem Hardware Development, Staff](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/qualcomm/jobs/28d3917ea111a1d03da7/) Qualcomm · Boxborough, Massachusetts, United States of America ### [Senior Principal Hardware Development Engineer - Network Switch](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/dell-technologies/jobs/415f761aa15702c9ada2/) Dell Technologies · Santa Clara, CA, United States OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
