Senior Product Engineer

Doodle Labs builds the connectivity backbone of the autonomous systems revolution — resilient wireless mesh networks that let drones, robots, and unmanned platforms operate reliably in the world's most demanding environments. We sit at the intersection of defense, robotics, and next-generation autonomy, powering the machines that are changing how militaries, first responders, and industries operate in the field. Our core purpose is simple: connect anyone and anything, at any time, in any place.

For over 25 years, our team has been at the forefront of mesh networking, partnering with leading defense programs, robotics manufacturers, and system integrators worldwide. The work here doesn't sit in a slide deck — it ends up in the field, in the hands of people for whom failure isn't an option.

The Senior Product Engineer is responsible for leading product engineering activities across Doodle Labs’ radio product lines and will play a key role in driving product development from design through validation and manufacturing.

In this role, you will work closely with RF, Software, Mechanical Design, NPI, Operations, and Manufacturing/Quality Assurance teams to deliver high-performance radio systems. This position will help shape product quality, manufacturability, and scalability as Doodle Labs continues to expand its radio portfolio.

This is an opportunity to build and scale next-generation wireless products within a high-growth company at the forefront of autonomous systems and wireless networking.
