About the role
Senior configuration management and systems engineering role for Amazon Kuiper Leo. Responsible for engineering change analysis, configuration baseline management, data hierarchy, and cross-functional coordination across satellite bus, payload, EE, RF, structures, and related subsystems to protect configuration integrity throughout design, production, and on-orbit operations.
Responsibilities
- Configuration Baseline Management: Manage and maintain the configuration management baseline for the entire satellite across multiple vehicle configurations and evolving product lines; enforce configuration identification, change accounting, and configuration status accounting disciplines.
- Engineering Change Analysis: Perform comprehensive impact analysis across satellite and aerospace systems for all engineering change proposals; assess impacts to technical design, interface specifications (Physical, Informational, and Operational ICDs), requirements, schedule, cost, and production.
- Business Requirements & Process Governance: Own the definition and maintenance of business requirements and process documentation (QSD standards) for Engineering Change Control—ensuring change workflows, classification logic, and approval processes are codified, enforceable, and aligned with the LeoSpace Engineering Application Platform and Teamcenter
- Data Hierarchy & Structure: Establish and maintain data hierarchies and structures for aerospace systems with multiple evolving product lines; ensure as-designed, as-built, and as-tested configurations are accurately captured and traceable through the PLM toolchain.
- Change Control Board: Lead the Change Control Board (CCB) and LeoSpace Platform impact assessment mechanisms; manage analysis, dependencies, and deliverables for all change categories across engineering disciplines.
- Technical Data Package Development: Develop and present data-driven technical packages to leadership and management; produce GD&T-compliant drawing packages and engineering documentation that support change disposition.
- Cross-Functional Change Coordination: Coordinate change analysis across multiple engineering functions (Satellite Bus, Payload, EE, Phased Array Antenna, RF, Structures) ensuring impact assessments and necessary escalations are effectively managed.
- Configuration Status Reporting: Maintain engineering change notification logs; track status, ownership, and disposition across all open change actions; deliver executive-level reporting on change control health and metrics.
- Systems Engineering Integration: Apply systems engineering expertise to evaluate change impacts across spacecraft subsystems; ensure changes retain compliance with interface control documents and system-level requirements.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, Systems Engineering, or related field)
- 5+ years of experience in Configuration Management including Change Management in aerospace, satellite, or defense programs
- Demonstrated expertise in Systems Engineering of spacecraft systems
- Experience performing Impact Analysis across satellite or aerospace systems at the system and subsystem level
- Experience establishing data hierarchies and structures for aerospace systems with multiple evolving product lines
- Familiarity with Physical, Informational, and Operational Interface Control Documents (ICDs)
- Background in design of satellite systems, launch vehicles, or aerospace systems
- Expertise in GD&T and drawing technical data packages
