Project Kuiper is an initiative to launch a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites that will provide low-latency, high-speed broadband connectivity to unserved and underserved communities around the world.Key job responsibilitiesFunctions include providing strategic direction and executing in the following areas:· Working with the technical and systems/RF engineering teams to analyze the potential for harmful interference between Kuiper and other satellite networks (both geostationary and non-geostationary) and terrestrial systems, developing the coordination strategy and mitigation techniques, and negotiating favorable coordination agreements.· Preparing and managing ITU satellite network filings in conformity with the Radio Regulations and applicable deadlines.· Executing the coordination strategy and reviewing satellite network filings and preserving coordination rights by commenting on filings within the regulatory deadlines.·Assist with the global licensing strategy by advancing coordination requirements for Kuiper’s system.· Excellent communication skills with the ability to identify tradeoffs, risks, and opportunities; remove bottlenecks; and establish mechanisms to speed progress.This position may require access to export-controlled information (ECI) subject to EAR and ITAR. Final employment decision is contingent upon satisfactory completion of export control screenings and obtaining any necessary export licenses or approvals, based on nationality, citizenship, and other factors considered by applicable export control regulations.A day in the lifeThe Engineer, International Spectrum Management and Strategy will articulate and execute the strategy for enabling and protecting Kuiper’s use of radio frequency spectrum and satellite orbits through the ITU filing, coordination, and notification processes. The ideal candidate has strong experiences with RF simulation tools and knowledge of the applicable Radio Regulations, Rules of Procedure, and ITU-R Recommendation.About the teamThe Global Regulatory Affairs team is responsible for enabling and protecting Kuiper’s use of radio frequency spectrum at home and abroad, defining and leading the Project Kuiper regulatory agenda. The Regulatory Affairs team operates worldwide, engaging with the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and regional organizations, coordinating the use of spectrum with other operators, obtaining licenses for Kuiper services, and promoting safety in space. The Global Regulatory Affairs team is also responsible for domestic licensing and collaborates with associations, government agencies, and other satellite operators in order to advocate for rules and regulations in the best interest of our customers. This team works in close collaboration with the Kuiper technical design teams to optimize for spectrum sharing and customer experience as well as with Amazon’s public policy and legal teams to enhance the overall regulatory strategy.
