I grew up “in space,” as my dad worked at NASA, and my career has been in satellite communication and reconnaissance systems. As the lead for the compliance team at KGS, my favorite part of my job is the customer interaction, working directly with them to develop a mutually beneficial solution.
Briana, Senior Compliance Manager, KGS
When I started at Kuiper in July 2023, I was excited about deploying revolutionary new satellite communication capabilities. I help to integrate processes and procedures across the entire business development team to ensure efficiency and scalability as we expand the business.

Lisa, ADCE Manager, ADC
My favorite part of my role is the pace of growth. I’ve learned more in two years here than I did in five years elsewhere. It’s fast-moving and constantly challenging, but in the best way. I feel like I’m developing both my leadership skills and technical expertise at a much faster rate than I could anywhere else.

I meet with customers and delivery teams to discuss how AWS can build solutions that create efficiencies and make an impact to the customer’s mission.
