Amazon Leo is launching satellite-based connectivity in 100+ countries. Every country launch requires validation across tax, accounting, disbursement, legal, trade, and core commerce - thousands of test cases, dozens of teams, months of sequential human work. We"re replacing that entire process with orchestrated AI agent squads that execute in parallel, share cross-domain context, and learn from every launch.

Leo Regulus is an AI-native team building autonomous agents that compress Amazon Leo"s ecommerce launch lifecycle from months to minutes. We don"t write test cases -nwe build agents that write, execute, diagnose, and remediate them. We don"t configure financial systems - we build agents that learn accounting rules and produce correct configurations. We don"t coordinate cross-team handoffs - we build agents that do it for each other.

Export Control Requirement: Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.

Key job responsibilities

Key Job Responsibilities:

  • Design and build autonomous AI agents that execute end-to-end ecommerce validation without human intervention
  • Build orchestration systems that coordinate dozens of domain-specific agents working in parallel
  • Create knowledge base architectures that ground agent behavior in accounting, tax, and compliance rules
  • Solve novel problems at the intersection of AI, distributed systems, and financial domain complexity

A day in the life

An SDE II on Leo Regulus will be responsible for designing, building, and operating autonomous AI agent systems that automate the end-to-end ecommerce launch lifecycle - from requirements generation through financial configuration, test execution, and validation - enabling Amazon Leo to scale country and feature launches across 100+ markets without proportional headcount growth.

About the team

We are a team building the AI infrastructure that makes Amazon Leo"s 100-country launch possible. Our entire stack is AI-native - every system we build either is an agent, powers an agent, or feeds an agent. We don"t maintain legacy test frameworks or manual runbooks. We build autonomous systems and point them at problems that would otherwise require hundreds of engineers.

About the Company

So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in.

It’s Always Day 1
At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here
