•Enhancing the customer experience by shaping national and regional policies and regulations affecting non-geostationary satellite orbit (NGSO) communications systems, the access to and use of Ka-band band frequencies, and space safety, in collaboration with relevant stakeholders.
•Engaging in national and regional telecommunications organizations, while maintaining liaison with regulators, relevant industry actors and trade associations in multiple countries in South Asia.
•Identifying potential policy and regulatory risks that may impact Kuiper’s ability to deploy services in countries in South Asia, and strategies to mitigate those risks.

You will work closely with other regulatory country leads, Technical Program Managers (TPMs), and Kuiper teams to ensure alignment on a country and regional basis, anticipating bottlenecks, and communicating risks clearly to leaders. You will also escalate effectively, remove blockers, and will deliver results across countries in South Asia.
You will report to the Head, Global Licensing for Project Kuiper and work in close collaboration with other leaders and team members within the Regulatory team and across Kuiper to ensure our licensing for each country enables on time service delivery at scale.
