Project Kuiper is now Amazon Leo
Amazon Leo is a simple nod to the low Earth orbit satellite constellation that powers the network.
Amazon Leo is Amazon’s low Earth orbit satellite network. Our mission is to deliver fast, reliable internet connectivity to customers beyond the reach of existing networks. From individual households to schools, hospitals, businesses, and government agencies, Amazon Leo will serve people and organizations operating in locations without reliable connectivity.
Inside our state-of-the-art facilities we’re developing new technology that will impact millions of customers globally, including households, small businesses, and other organizations. From designing satellite management systems to building solar panels, we create solutions that make technology more accessible. We’re aiming high. We want to transform the satellite industry and help close the global digital divide.
We’re looking for top talent to help take our project to the next stage. You’ll join a world-class team of manufacturing, hardware, mechanical, and electrical engineers; software developers; supply chain program managers; and production and assembly technicians. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to make a positive impact for customers and communities around the world.
Will you join our mission to bring connectivity to all?
Amazon Leo is a simple nod to the low Earth orbit satellite constellation that powers the network.
Amazon Leo (formerly Project Kuiper) will include laser links on every satellite in our constellation to form a mesh network in space.
On October 6, 2023, Amazon Leo (formerly Project Kuiper) sent its first two prototype satellites to space aboard an Atlas V rocket from United Launch Alliance (ULA), beginning the Protoflight mission.
Within 30 days of sending two prototype satellites into space, Amazon Leo (formerly Project Kuiper) achieved a 100% success rate for its Protoflight mission, validating technologies that underpin the network and moving the program closer toward our long-term vision.
Come build the future of technology with us.
