4 Automated Logic Controls Technicians from EMS Technologies submitted salaries.
EMS Technologies provided connectivity solutions for mobile telephony, defense and satellite systems. In August 2011, Honeywell International acquired the company for $491 million. EMS has been operating as a subdivision of Honeywell since that time. EMS maintained an American headquarters in Norcross, Georgia and a Canadian headquarters in Ottawa, Ontario.
EMS Technologies was founded in 1968 by Dr. John E. Pippin who focused on the application of microwave technologies in the engineering field. Dr. Pippin held a PhD in Applied Physics from Harvard University.
In 1976, EMS designed the first steering system for a Defense Satellite Communications System (DSCS) satellite that could be operated manually by ground personnel. Over the next three decades, EMS became an increasingly important supplier of antenna systems, tracking software and satellite-based communication technologies to the Defense Department. Today, almost every major military satellite contains EMS technology of some sort.
Before its acquisition by Honeywell, EMS maintained a staff of approximately 2,000 and generated gross revenues of $288 million per year. In addition to product engineers and technicians, the company also employed a sales staff and administrative personnel working at the corporate level. Compensation and benefits were commensurate with those earned by other individuals working in the defense industry.
Principal Mechanical Engineer is the highest paying job at EMS Technologies at $111,000 annually.
