About The Position

Radar Reinvented. 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). Echodyne is seeking a Senior Manager, Analog & Mixed Signal Engineering to join our fast-growing team. ROLE OVERVIEW The Senior Manager of Analog & Mixed Signal (AMS) Engineering leads Echodyne’s AMS organization—responsible for architecting, designing, verifying, and sustaining the analog, digital/mixed-signal, power delivery, clocking, and high-speed interfaces that form the electrical backbone of Echodyne’s next-generation radar platforms. This leader combines deep technical expertise with people leadership, guiding the AMS team through the full hardware lifecycle—from concept and architecture through design, bring-up, verification, transition to manufacturing, and long-term sustainment. They will champion engineering excellence, ensure alignment with program and product objectives, and drive continuous improvement across processes, workflows, and design methodologies. Reporting to the Senior Director of Electrical & RF Engineering, this leader balances technical ownership with organizational leadership, mentoring and developing engineers while remaining hands-on enough to influence architecture and solve complex cross-disciplinary challenges.
