Job description

Echodyne is seeking a Senior Radar Engineer to join our fast-growing team! 

The Senior Radar Engineer will play a key role in advancing the performance and capability of Echodyne's current and future radar systems. This position focuses on the research, design, and development of radar algorithms-from concept and simulation to system validation. The ideal candidate combines deep radar domain knowledge with strong analytical and problem-solving skills, using simulation and real-world data to innovate in areas such as clutter mitigation, interference suppression, and field calibration.

Working within a small, highly collaborative radar algorithms team, this individual will partner closely with experts in antennas, electrical engineering, and data analysis to ensure that new algorithmic approaches translate effectively to high-performing radar systems. This role is ideal for a radar engineer who enjoys exploring novel solutions, building models and simulations, and developing a deep understanding of radar phenomenology to push the boundaries of sensing performance.

RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Contribute to the design, simulation, and prototyping of advanced radar signal processing and control algorithms for FMCW and pulsed radar systems.
  • Develop MATLAB/Python simulations to design, test, and evaluate algorithms for radar performance, clutter suppression, interference mitigation, and system control.
  • Analyze radar data to characterize performance, identify failure modes, and derive insights that guide algorithmic and system-level improvements.
  • Collaborate with Electromagnetics, Electrical Engineering, Software, and Data teams to ensure algorithms complement  real-world hardware and environmental constraints and are implemented correctly in production code.
  • Support the bring-up and verification of next-generation radar hardware and signal processing chains.
  • Participate in architecture discussions, code reviews, and technical mentorship across the algorithms team.
  • Document and communicate algorithm design rationale, performance results, and system implications across technical teams.
REQUIRED SKILLS / EXPERIENCE

  • BS in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Applied Math, or a related field with 5+ years of experience, or MS with 4+ years, or PhD with 2+ years.
  • Deep understanding of radar systems, including waveform design, signal processing, and system-level architecture.
  • Strong background in radar signal processing for FMCW and/or pulsed LFM high gain, analog beam-forming systems.
  • Strong proficiency in MATLAB and/or Python for simulation and algorithm prototyping.
  • Practical understanding of electromagnetics, antennas, wave propagation, and classical mechanics.
  • Has demonstrated ability to take problem statement to algorithm prototype.
  • Experience working collaboratively across hardware and software disciplines.
  • Proficiency with modern software development practices, including source control, testing, and documentation.
DESIRED SKILLS / EXPERIENCE 
(Looking for one or more as a complement to the core skills)
 
  • Strong mathematical foundation, including statistical signal processing, estimation theory, and linear algebra.
  • Experience with multi-sensor or multi-radar coexistence, frequency management, or cognitive radar concepts.
  • Experience with sensor fusion, tracking, or state estimation (e.g., Kalman filtering).
  • Familiarity with object detection and classification using radar data.
  • Experience with embedded systems, real-time signal processing, or RTOS environments.
  • Exposure to IMU/GPS integration or motion compensation techniques.
  • Experience with instrument control and automated test systems.

Echodyne's technology is export controlled by the U.S. Government and we must evaluate an applicant's eligibility to handle export-controlled information or obtain required Government authorizations. Therefore, we will ask you as part of the application process to identify whether you are a U.S. Citizen or green card holder, or have asylum/refugee status in the U.S. 


WHAT WE OFFERThis is an exempt position.
