A day in the life
You start by triaging escalations—unblocking landlord disputes or payment discrepancies your team cannot resolve independently. You audit lease data integrity, approve abstracted records, and review critical date dashboards to protect against missed deadlines. You partner with real estate and fiber acquisition, as well construction, leads to align lease timelines with site builds, then shift focus to refining the AI-enabled workflows that are eliminating manual processing across the portfolio. Your day closes by advancing strategy: updating SOPs, reviewing KPI trends, and ensuring your processes scale with LEO's accelerating global expansion.

What if you could help connect the world from space? The Operations Portfolio & Programs (O2P) team within Amazon's LEO Ground Infrastructure organization is building a portfolio management function from scratch—designed for speed, scale, and AI-driven automation.

You'll work alongside engineers building satellite terminals, construction teams in remote locations worldwide, and operations leaders running critical infrastructure 24/7. Your decisions directly impact how quickly Amazon delivers satellite connectivity to communities around the world.
