Bengaluru, India Amazon Kuiper Services India Private Limited - Q38 Full time
Project Kuiper is an initiative to launch a constellation of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites that will provide low-latency, high-speed broadband connectivity to unserved and underserved communities around the world. This is a unique opportunity to work in the development of a global broadband satellite communication system and make a difference in bridging the digital divide.

The Lead, Licensing and Regulatory Affairs will work to align the licensing strategy in countries in South Asia with business priorities and service availability. The ideal candidate will manage complex projects dealing with satellite and spectrum regulations, telecommunications services, and other issues involved with deploying a global satellite broadband constellation. The Lead, Licensing and Regulatory Affairs will have experience obtaining licenses for satellite systems -- to include space stations, earth stations/gateway stations, customer/user equipment, spectrum, and the provision of services (wholesale and retail models) -- in countries in South Asia. Additionally, the ideal candidate will be familiar with regulatory agencies and frameworks in countries in South Asia, and be able to assess and, if necessary, improve regulatory frameworks in order to optimize Kuiper service to customers. The Lead, Licensing and Regulatory Affairs will engage cross-functionally with Public Policy, Legal, Business, Engineering and Operations professionals, and collaborate with members of the International Regulatory team to advance objectives for the ITU World Radiocommunications Conferences (WRC) at the national and regional levels.

Key job responsibilities
•Executing the licensing strategy in countries throughout South Asia, in alignment with Kuiper technical, business, and customer objectives, and developing the corresponding budget projections for licensing, regulatory, spectrum, and other fees.
•Securing and maintaining the necessary licenses to enable Kuiper services (e.g., satellite system, earth stations/gateway stations, user/customer equipment, spectrum, and service), and ensuring compliance with national regulations, deadlines, and regulatory/fee requirements.
•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.

A day in the life
In this role, you will be responsible for the licensing of Kuiper space and ground stations, as well as services in countries in South Asia, enabling and protecting Kuiper’s use of radio frequency spectrum at home and abroad, and defining and leading the Project Kuiper regulatory agenda. You will collaborate with trade associations, government agencies, multilateral organizations, and other operators to advocate for rules and regulations in the best interest of our customers, and work in close collaboration with Kuiper technical, operations and business teams to optimize for spectrum sharing and customer experience as well as with Amazon’s Public Policy, Public Relations and Legal teams to enhance the overall regulatory strategy in countries in South Asia. 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.
