<p> </p> <p>Why LeoLabs?</p> <p>At LeoLabs, we’re building the living map of activity in space. Through our proprietary global radar network and AI-enabled analytics platform, we collect millions of measurements daily on more than 25,000 objects in low Earth orbit (LEO). Our radar-powered intelligence protects billions in assets, monitors adversarial behavior, and ensures safe operations for commercial and government missions.</p> <p>We’re not just building technology, we are redefining global security, safety, and transparency in space. As orbital activity accelerates and threats grow more complex, LeoLabs is a trusted partner for Space Domain Awareness, Space Traffic Management, and Satellite Operations for top-tier space operators and allied defense organizations.</p> <p>If you're looking to work on mission-critical challenges at the forefront of aerospace, national security, and AI, your impact starts here.</p> <p>As an Electrical Engineer, you will help design and develop the electronics that power our next-generation radar systems. You will contribute to board-level hardware development across mixed-signal, power, timing, and control electronics, supporting designs from initial requirements through prototype bring-up, validation, and production.</p> <p>This is a hands-on role for an engineer who enjoys solving technical problems, working in the laboratory, and collaborating with experienced engineers to build reliable hardware that moves quickly from development into the field.</p> <p>This position is based in the San Francisco Bay Area and is full-time onsite at our Menlo Park Facility.
