Leo antenna team is seeking a candidate to develop and own the lifecycle, procurement, tracking, and logistics of prototype components and hardware— the independent audit, reconciliation, and accountability function that ensures every piece of Leo IP hardware is accounted for. This role is critical to protecting intellectual property (IP) by establishing a clean separation of duties, maturing the reconciliation program as Leo scales, and converting accountability data into enforceable controls.
Key job responsibilities
• Develop, own, and mature Leo's IP hardware asset assurance
• Inventory & Asset Tracking: Managing highly confidential, pre-production components, tools, and mockups. This includes tracking where "proto" assets are across engineering labs, test tracks, and vendor facilities.
• Establish and maintain SOPs for reconciliation, discrepancy classification, and closure verification
• Execute on the reconciliation methodology, cadence, sampling criteria, and accountability standards for hardware asset system-of-record data
• Own verification of enforcement controls; tracker-association gating, assignment caps, and physical-verification requirements for Critical/High-tier hardware, and validate they hold as asset tracking tooling capabilities come online
• Own loss-trend and non-engagement analytics (device loss rate, non-response rate, unrecovered device aging); identify systemic drivers and recommend structural fixes rather than one-off corrections
• Partner with the Physical Security Manager and Audit & Compliance Manager to ensure accountability gaps inform design standards and audit strategy
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.
