That includes mission operations, network health, satellite and ground systems, and the leadership views that show how the network is performing. You'll own features end to end, from design through production, and see them used by the people flying and operating the network.\nWhat you'll do\n- Build and evolve a shared frontend platform that operator and leadership dashboards are built on: common components, charts, maps, tables, navigation, and mobile-friendly layouts, so every team ships a consistent, fast experience.\n- Make operational tools fast and dependable at fleet scale. Profile and remove performance bottlenecks, design data-heavy views that stay responsive, and harden the platform against real-world failure modes.\n- Instrument what you build. Use real-user monitoring and usage data to find where operators struggle, fix it, and measure the improvement.\n- Work directly with engineering teams across ground and space systems to turn complex mission workflows into clear, easy-to-use tools.\n- Raise the bar on engineering practice: shared design standards, automated code review, test and release tooling, and AI-assisted development workflows that help a small team move quickly without sacrificing quality.\n- Support high-stakes moments such as launches, on-orbit operations and operational rehearsals, where the tools have to just work.\nAbout you\nYou care about craft and about the people who use what you build. You're comfortable owning ambiguous problems, balancing several priorities at once, and staying calm under pressure. You have deep frontend engineering skills, enjoy making complex systems understandable, and like turning data into decisions. Experience with design systems, performance tuning or observability is a plus. Familiarity with space or network systems is welcome but not required; you'll learn the domain here.\nExport Control Requirement:\nDue 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.\nAbout the team\nThe Leo Ground Control Console team owns the operational tooling used across Amazon Leo, on the ground and in orbit. We build a shared platform that is scalable, reliable, adaptable and fast, so every team at Leo can deliver tools their users rely on. We're a small, high-ownership team that ships quickly, measures its impact, and invests in the tools and practices that make the whole organization more productive.\nKey job responsibilities\nKey job responsibilities\n- Design, build, test and operate features end to end in the shared web platform behind Amazon Leo's operator and leadership tools, from design through production support.\n- Build reusable components and patterns (tables, charts, maps, navigation, layouts and mobile views) that many teams adopt, and keep them consistent, accessible and well documented.\n- Own the performance and reliability of data-heavy applications: measure real-user experience, find and fix bottlenecks, and make tools resilient to slow or failing dependencies.\n- Add usage and error telemetry to what you ship, and use the data to prioritize improvements and show their impact.\n- Partner with engineers, operators and product owners across ground and space systems to understand mission workflows and turn them into clear, efficient tools.\n- Write high-quality, well-tested code, review others' changes, and help define the team's frontend standards, design guidelines and automated quality checks.\n- Improve developer productivity through better tooling, CI/CD, test automation and AI-assisted development workflows.\n- Participate in on-call and support launches, on-orbit operations and operational rehearsals, where the tools have to just work.\nBasic qualifications\n- 2+ years of non-internship professional front end, web or mobile software development using JavaScript, HTML and CSS experience\n- 1+ years of computer science fundamentals (object-oriented design, data structures, algorithm design, problem solving and complexity analysis) experience\n- Experience using JavaScript frameworks such as angular and react\nPreferred qualifications\n- 1+ years of agile software development methodology experience\n- Experience with common front-end technologies such as HTML, CSS, JS, TypeScript, and Node\nAmazon is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of protected veteran status, disability, or other legally protected status.\nOur inclusive culture empowers Amazonians to deliver the best results for our customers.
