Amazon Leo 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.

We're looking for Mechanical Engineer with a background in design and analysis of secondary structure and printed circuit board assemblies (PCBA) for satellite systems. The ideal candidate has experience performing secondary structure specific design and analyses such as random vibration analysis and hand calculation sizing based on quasi-static accelerations.

This is a hands-on role for a highly collaborative individual that combines technical and analytical capabilities to convert analytic trade studies to a qualified physical design, while optimizing for high volume production and meeting cross-discipline requirements. The candidate will design, analyze, and test secondary structures while ensuring all requirements are met.

· Generate detailed designs with 3D CAD assemblies/components and 2D drawings as deliverables.
· Conduct static, dynamic, and modal structural analysis as needed to support design work.
· Deliver efficient designs capable of high volume production throughput (DFM, DFA).
· Documentation and presentation of materials for technical design reviews.
· Design and support test campaigns, both development and qualification/acceptance, for space hardware.
