The compensation package is competitive, ranging from $89,500 to $189,900 annually, depending on location and experience. Amazon offers a comprehensive benefits package including medical coverage, equity compensation, and sign-on payments. This is an excellent opportunity for someone passionate about space technology and interested in contributing to a project that will impact global connectivity.
