Description

Amazon Leo is building the world's most advanced satellite broadband network to deliver fast, affordable connectivity to underserved communities and enterprise customers around the globe. Global Enterprise Services (GES) is the customer-facing organization that ensures enterprise customers realize the full value of Amazon Leo's connectivity solutions.

As a Senior Customer Delivery Manager (CDM) in GES, you are the customer's single point of contact from contract signature through production deployment. You own the onboarding execution - translating what was sold into what gets delivered, on time, with the customer fully operational. CDMs coordinate across Product, Engineering, Operations, Field Support, Customer Delivery Engineers, system integrators, and customer IT teams to deliver predictable deployment outcomes.

This is not a sales role. You are the execution owner who builds lasting customer relationships through transparent communication and reliable delivery. You will manage complex, multi-site deployments across enterprise verticals including energy, maritime, aviation, and telecom - developing onboarding plans, driving milestone execution, managing escalations, and conducting structured handoffs to post-deployment support teams.

The ideal candidate brings strong program management skills, experience with complex technical deployments in enterprise settings, and the ability to build trust with customer executives through consistent delivery. You are comfortable navigating ambiguity in a fast-moving startup environment and can drive operational rigor without sacrificing speed.

This position may require access to export-controlled information (ECI) subject to EAR and ITAR. Final employment decision is contingent upon satisfactory completion of export control screenings and obtaining any necessary export licenses or approvals, based on nationality, citizenship, and other factors considered by applicable export control regulations.
