Description
Amazon Leo is Amazon's low Earth orbit satellite broadband network. Its mission is to deliver fast, reliable internet to customers and communities around the world, and we've designed the system with the capacity, flexibility, and performance to serve a wide range of customers, from individual households to schools, hospitals, businesses, government agencies, and other organizations operating in locations without reliable connectivity.We are seeking an innovative and solution-oriented Sr System Development Engineer (SysDE III) to join our team to develop solutions that integrate machines and equipment with enterprise manufacturing systems, build custom manufacturing applications, and deploy applied AI within an active satellite manufacturing facility. This role combines hardware, software, OT and IT stack development to connect plant-floor assets with enterprise platforms, create purpose-built applications that streamline production workflows, and build intelligent solutions that unlock value from manufacturing data.
In this position, you will primarily work on integrating machines, robots, PLCs, SCADA systems, and production equipment with enterprise systems such as MES (Manufacturing Execution System), enabling real-time data flow between the shop floor and higher-level business systems. You will build custom manufacturing applications such as operations dashboards, digital work instructions, traceability tools, and production monitoring systems tailored to the unique needs of satellite manufacturing. You will also design and deploy applied AI solutions that leverage equipment and process data to drive predictive maintenance, automated quality inspection, process optimization, and intelligent manufacturing workflows. The ideal candidate will have direct hands-on experience connecting industrial equipment (PLCs, SCADA, Torque Tools, CNC machines) to enterprise manufacturing systems (MES), developing custom applications for manufacturing environments, building applied AI solutions for production use cases, or deploying industrial connectivity and data integration solutions using modern DevOps practices at scale.
Key job responsibilities
Bridge the gap between IT and OT environments by integrating plant-floor equipment (PLCs, SCADA, robots, CNC machines, torque tools) with enterprise systems such as MES using OPC UA, MQTT, and REST APIs
Build and maintain real-time data pipelines that converge OT and IT layers, enabling end-to-end production visibility, traceability, and data-driven decision-making across the manufacturing stack
Develop custom manufacturing applications (dashboards, digital work instructions, production monitoring, and quality traceability) tailored to satellite manufacturing operations, serving as the connective tissue between shop-floor systems and enterprise platforms
Design, train, and deploy applied AI solutions for predictive maintenance, automated quality inspection, anomaly detection, process optimization, and intelligent chatbots leveraging data from both OT and IT systems to drive actionable insights for Production Operations.
Partner cross-functionally with controls engineers to ensure equipment-level connectivity and PLC/SCADA integration
Collaborate with manufacturing engineers to translate process requirements and domain expertise into scalable digital solutions
Work alongside network development engineers to architect reliable, secure industrial network infrastructure that supports OT/IT convergence
