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.

Echodyne designs and builds advanced radar solutions that unlock new capabilities for intelligent systems and autonomous machines and shatter price-performance barriers for sensor arrays. Our combination of patented metamaterials electronically scanned array (MESA®) technology with powerful software ultimately means significantly greater situational awareness that increases safety and saves lives. Our first radar is the size of a paperback book, weighs less than bowling pin, draws less power than a light bulb, yet outperforms every comparable radar on the market. We are just getting started.
Echodyne delivers commercial radar solutions for end users and integrators in Government and Defense, Critical Infrastructure Protection, Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS), and Autonomous Vehicle markets globally. The company is based in Kirkland, Washington and backed by Bill Gates, NEA, Madrona Venture Group, Baillie Gifford, Vulcan Capital, Vanedge Capital, and Irongrey among others.
