Principal Scientist, Kuiper Capacity Planning - Simulation & Optimization
Project Kuiper is an initiative to increase global broadband access through a constellation of 3,236 satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO). Its mission is to bring fast, affordable broadband to unserved and underserved communities around the world. Project Kuiper will help close the digital divide by delivering fast, affordable broadband to a wide range of customers, including consumers, businesses, government agencies, and other organizations operating in places without reliable connectivity.The Kuiper Global Capacity Planning team owns designing, implementing, and operating systems that support the planning, management, and optimization of Kuiper network resources worldwide. We are looking for a talented principal scientist to lead Kuiper’s long-term vision and strategy for capacity simulations and inventory optimization. This effort will be instrumental in helping Kuiper execute on its business plans globally. As one of our valued team members, you will be obsessed with matching our standards for operational excellence with a relentless focus on delivering results.Key job responsibilities
In this role, you will:Work cross-functionally with product, business development, and various technical teams (engineering, science, R&D, simulations, etc.) to establish the long-term vision, strategy, and architecture for capacity simulations and inventory optimization.Design and deliver modern, flexible, scalable solutions to complex optimization problems for operating and planning satellite resources.Lead short and long terms technical roadmap definition efforts to predict future inventory availability and key operational and financial metrics across the network.Design and deliver systems that can keep up with the rapid pace of optimization improvements and simulating how they interact with each other.Analyze large amounts of satellite and business data to identify simulation and optimization opportunities.Synthesize and communicate insights and recommendations to audiences of varying levels of technical sophistication to drive change across Kuiper.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.BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
