Amazon • Arlington, VA • 2h ago

Description

Leo is 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. We are looking for an entrepreneurial minded Finance Manager to work in a start-up environment who is passionate about technology, is interested in analyzing transformative business opportunities at global scale, who thinks/acts globally, and has the ability to create, implement, and drive solutions to complex business questions.

Amazon Leo seeks a Finance Manager to support the Direct-to-Device (DTD) constellation business. Leo's DTD service will connect billions of devices globally through satellite-based connectivity, partnering with Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) to deliver ubiquitous coverage where terrestrial networks cannot reach. The successful candidate will be entrepreneurial by nature, a strategic thinker with strong leadership capabilities, analytical in approach, and have a demonstrated ability to develop and own financial models that provide intelligence for multi-billion-dollar investment decisions. This role requires a self-starter with superb business modeling skills, the ability to influence senior leadership, keen attention to detail, and the ability to manage ambiguity in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment.

Key job responsibilities

Own, design, develop, and maintain long-range financial models to project and evaluate DTD business performance across constellation generations, including revenue forecasting, ARPU modeling, and capacity-driven economics

Perform strategic financial analysis of go-to-market strategies including MNO partnership evaluation, spectrum acquisition economics, pricing strategy, and market entry prioritization

Build and own P&L models for the DTD business, develop business insights and KPI dashboards, and drive ad hoc analyses that inform investment decisions at the VP+ and S-Team level

Develop financial frameworks to evaluate constellation capacity allocation, beam optimization trade-offs, and satellite manufacturing/launch economics as they pertain to DTD service delivery

Partner with Product, Engineering, and Business Development to translate technical assumptions (satellite capacity, spectrum bandwidth, device penetration) into financial impact and business cases

Create and implement revenue and cost models incorporating MNO revenue share structures, spectrum costs, and device ecosystem scaling to be presented in business reviews

Educate and influence business partners on financial and operational trade-offs, exercising sound judgement in highly ambiguous situations with limited or rapidly evolving data

Assist in developing and implementing financial policies, procedures, and internal controls for a nascent and rapidly scaling business

Basic Qualifications

6+ years of tax, finance or a related analytical field experience

6+ years of applying key financial performance indicators (KPIs) to analyses experience

6+ years of building financial and operational reports/data sets that inform business decision-making experience

6+ years of participating in continuous improvement projects in your team to scale and improve controllership with measurable results experience

6+ years of dissecting financial data and identifying patterns that support business strategy experience

6+ years of leading cross-functional initiatives that drive financial performance and strategy experience

Bachelor's degree in engineering, statistics or business, or Bachelor's degree and 6+ years of quantitative role (engineering, process re-engineering, quality assurance) experience

Export Control Requirement: Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum

Preferred Qualifications

6+ years of solving complex business challenges by delivering accurate and timely financial models, analysis, and recommendations that have a proven impact on business (e.g., financial savings, operational improvements, or customer benefits) experience
