Echodyne offers the world’s first compact solid-state true beam-steering radar for a wide range of industries and applications. Our high-performance radars work in all weather and are designed for autonomous vehicles, uncrewed aircraft & drones, and security of borders, critical infrastructure, and smart cities. The company combines the patented technology of metamaterials with powerful software to create a radar sensor with unprecedented performance at commercial price points. Echodyne offers its radars to companies working in Automotive, Transportation, Critical Infrastructure Protection, Border Security, Smart Cities, Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS), and Airspace Management including Urban Air Mobility (UTM).
Accessory Ecosystem is critical to deploying, integrating, and operating Echodyne’s advanced radar products. Echodyne is seeking a Principal Electrical Engineer to join our Analog/Mixed-Signal (AMS) Engineering team and lead the electrical architecture, development, and lifecycle support of our accessory portfolio.
In this role, you will translate product and system needs into reliable, manufacturable electrical solutions spanning power distribution, communications and networking, embedded computing, interconnects, junction boxes, electrical protection, and related integration hardware. Working with cross-functional teams and external partners, you will lead these solutions across the product lifecycle, from concept and architecture through qualification, production release, and sustaining support, using the appropriate combination of internal development, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products, supplier-manufactured hardware, vendor co-development, and external design services. The ideal candidate combines broad, hands-on electrical design expertise with Principal-level technical judgment and the ability to align technical decisions across functions.
