Its mission is to deliver fast, reliable internet to customers and communities around the world, and we’ve designed the system with the capacity, flexibility, and performance to serve a wide range of customers, from individual households to schools, hospitals, businesses, government agencies, and other organizations operating in locations without reliable connectivity. ### 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. As an Environmental Test Engineer on the SSL team, you won't be one of many engineers maintaining a shared pool of equipment. You'll be the primary owner of an entire class of test equipment — Thermal, TVAC, Vibe, Shock, or HASS — accountable for keeping it running, driving its reliability upward, and building the processes that let the lab test at launch cadence. When something goes wrong at 2 AM, your name is on the escalation. When something needs to change, you own the engineering decision and the vendor conversation. When a technician learns the equipment, they learn it from you. Key job responsibilities ### Equipment Ownership - Serve as primary owner for an assigned class of environmental test equipment (Thermal, TVAC, Vibe, Shock, or HASS), managing configurations, maintenance, calibration, and improvement projects. - Provide technical leadership during troubleshooting events, driving issues from first response through root cause and corrective action. - Manage relationships with 3rd-party equipment vendors (service, spares, upgrades, escalations). ### Process Development - Establish standardized test processes and work instructions that enable technicians to operate with minimal engineer supervision. - Train and mentor technicians on equipment operation and troubleshooting; keep documentation accurate and current. ### Rate Improvement - Analyze test data to validate ability of test procedures to meet requirements. - Identify and lead projects that increase throughput, reduce cycle time, and improve first-pass yield. ### Automation Troubleshooting - Read and triage simple errors in LabVIEW and Python code execution; clearly articulate failures to support teams for more complex issues. - Apply understanding of control loops used in environmental test (thermal ramp control, vacuum/pressure control, shaker control) to diagnose equipment behavior. ### A day in the life This is a build job, not a maintain job. We're scaling SSL fast and we need an engineer who looks at tribal knowledge and turns it into standard work; who looks at a vendor's response time and decides it's not good enough; who can read a thermal ramp trace or a shaker response curve and tell you whether it's a tuning problem, a hardware problem, or a software problem. You will have autonomy, a direct line to leadership, and a tangible connection between the work you do this week and the hardware that leaves Earth next quarter. If you want your engineering decisions to show up in orbit — not just in a dashboard — come build this with us. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Oct 29, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Nov 1, 2026 - Last checked: Nov 1, 2026 - Listed for: 3 days - Location: US, WA, Kirkland[Apply on Amazon’s careers site →](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/10590082/environmental-test-engineer-space-simulation-lab) ## Hiring at Amazon - Open jobs: 19,174 - New in the last 7 days: After two weekly collections - Tracked since: Jul 10, 2026 [All Amazon jobs](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/) · [Weekly hiring report](/reports/hiring/) ## More jobs at Amazon ### [Dynamics Test Engineer - 2nd Shift, Amazon Leo](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/93e2c2626cf0b35e9c0a/) US, WA, Kirkland ### [Environmental Test Engineer, Amazon Leo](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/93babdc6fa3e6656ab63/) US, WA, Kirkland ### [Equipment Reliability Engineer, Amazon Leo](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/28379ad21978d8d66eb9/) US, WA, Kirkland ### [FLS Test Engineer, Amazon Leo](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/32033fafc137c4adc4e4/) US, WA, Kirkland ### [Lab Test Engineer, Environmental Test, Amazon Leo](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/d15a314facced617110a/) US, WA, Kirkland ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Space Vehicle Test Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/lockheed-martin/jobs/2c13a46fa82788e5427f/) Lockheed Martin · Littleton, CO ### [Space Vehicle Test Engineer Sr](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/lockheed-martin/jobs/f2dedba8a99bd0d79bbb/) Lockheed Martin · Littleton, CO ### [Senior Engineer - Space Vehicle System Test (AI&T)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/bae-systems/jobs/d76b0ea54acdcb4189fe/) BAE Systems · Boulder, Colorado, United States ### [Senior Engineer - Space Vehicle System Test (AI&T) - $15K Sign On Bonus](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/bae-systems/jobs/6b58c148417993a1d0ee/) BAE Systems · Boulder, Colorado, United States ### [Environmental Test Technician Senior (Second Shift) – Millennium Space Systems](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/boeing/jobs/21fc74e2dd01f5c2a004/) Boeing · USA - El Segundo, CA OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
