This expansion marks an exciting milestone for Elektrobit.
“Elektrobit is committed to its workforce in India by offering alternatives for remote working from outside its base location in Bangalore,” said Satish Sundaresan, Vice President, Elektrobit. “Kochi offers the perfect ecosystem and quality of living to support our native workforce from this region as well as attract new talent from the growing tech and start-up community.”
The Kochi office will mirror many of the benefits that employees have at the regional headquarters in Bangalore. Offering this level of flexibility, which has become the accepted employment model in many societies, the new location underlies Elektrobit’s position as an employer of choice for those talented individuals who wish to work in a company with a global reach.

Elementary Mr. Watson: Chasing Checkmarks, Not Signal Integrity
10/01/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonFor the September 2025 issue of Design007 Magazine on signal integrity, I explored how the PCB is similar to a military obstacle course: walls that sap energy like impedance mismatches, barbed wire that cuts like crosstalk, and mud pits that drag a signal down like attenuation.
