Are you ready to get in on the ground floor of Amazon’s long-term initiative to design, launch and maintain a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites to provide low-latency, high-speed broadband connectivity to unserved and underserved communities around the world?

It’s Day 1 for Amazon’s next billion dollar business and we are looking for an entrepreneurial minded Finance Manager to work in a start-up environment who is passionate about technology, manufacturing and FP&A, who thinks/acts globally, and has the ability to create and implement solutions, processes and controls.

This includes bringing best-in-class business partnership while providing strong controllership, being comfortable leading analysis projects with high ambiguity, creating a robust process to track and manage the spending needs, presenting to business owners during reviews, and the ability to pivot between the defined financial rhythms and ad-hoc project analyses.
