Amazon Leo is seeking an experienced Finance Manager to join our Global Long-Range Planning (LRP) & Strategy team. This role will shape the financial strategy behind one of Amazon's most ambitious and capital-intensive investments - a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites designed to provide fast, affordable broadband to unserved and underserved communities worldwide.

As a key member of the LRP team, you'll own the 10-year financial roadmap that guides long-term capital prioritization and global expansion. You'll consolidate inputs from 150+ country-level P&Ls across multiple business segments, coordinate across 50+ global stakeholders, and produce planning outputs that directly inform executive decisions on satellite design, market entry sequencing, and multi-billion-dollar capital allocation. Your materials will cascade to Amazon's most senior leadership - including C-suite, Board of Directors, and S-Team.

This is not a typical FP&A role. You will operate at the intersection of finance, engineering, and technology in a Day 1 startup environment within Amazon, with full ownership of planning methodology, financial governance, and executive-level deliverables.

Key job responsibilities

- Own Leo's 10-year global P&L consolidation - design and maintain the architecture across 150+ country, regional, and segment P&Ls; validate and synthesize inputs each cycle into outputs that inform leadership decisions

- Lead the OP planning cycle end-to-end - coordinate across 50+ global stakeholders; design the operating model, timeline, and quality checkpoints

- Build scenario models and NPV/IRR frameworks quantifying long-term financial impact of strategic decisions on satellite design, market entry, and capital allocation

- Own the enterprise planning infrastructure roadmap - partner with FinTech to extend Leo's automated planning tools and integrate LRP with short-range systems

- Architect the reconciliation between FP&A and LRP - segment mapping, FCF methodology alignment, and expense classification conventions

- Design and govern fixed cost allocation methodology - regionalized CPH rates, gateway expense allocations, and controllable country-level profitability

- Serve as approval authority for BizOps Non-HC OpEx purchase orders and month-end close reconciliation, including accrual management and variance analysis

- Own headcount approval and budget governance - approve HC requests against plan and track plan-to-actual variances

- Synthesize complex financial outputs into executive narratives for C-suite audiences

- Drive process automation - build mechanisms that reduce manual effort and enable the team to scale

A day in the life

You start your morning reviewing overnight country-level P&L submissions from global stakeholders - validating assumptions and resolving discrepancies before consolidation deadlines. Mid-morning, you're prioritizing automation features with the FinTech team. After lunch, you're building a scenario analysis quantifying the 10-year impact of a proposed launch cadence change for senior leadership. In the afternoon, you approve operating expense purchase orders, review headcount variances, and close out month-end accruals. You end the day aligning with international partners on cost allocation methodology updates.
