About the role
Original posting provided by amazon
Amazon Leo is Amazon's low Earth orbit satellite network. 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.
In the Sr. NPI Engineer role, you will lead the industrialization and production launch of wiring harnesses. Robust harness systems are crucial to maintaining reliable electrical system functionality. You will have direct impact on the success of creating a constellation of communication satellites that will be capable of reaching and providing broadband internet to the most remote areas of the world.
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
Wire Harness NPI leads the transition of complex wire harness products from design to high volume manufacturing
Develop and own the end-to-end wire harness NPI strategy, aligning with design engineering, supplier manufacturing, quality and supply chain teams to meet product lifecycle milestones
Drive Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Test (DFT) requirements
Optimize wire harness fabrication, assembly, and test processes to maximize yield and reduce costs, including in advanced/novel packaging
Lead cross-functional teams to resolve technical and supply constraints during the NPI phase, ensuring a seamless transfer to mass production
Guarantee that products meet quality standards and reliability specifications before product release in conjunction with the Supplier Quality team
A day in the life
As a Sr. NPI Engineer on the Harness Design team, you will be the technical authority on interconnect and cabling solutions. You will provide technical leadership to the team while developing novel space hardware. You will play an integral part of gathering requirements for harness development as well as providing critical input for successful development of avionics hardware.
About the team
On the Harnessing Team, each member has the freedom to explore new ideas and explore their feasibility. Collaboration is critical to success and is always a high priority both within the team, as well as when working with other teams. While you are an individual contributor, it is still expected that each member takes ownership when needed. No job/task is beneath any member.
