About
Red Kite Design was founded in 2018 by Steven de Rooij. With more
than 20 years of experience in the development of complex electronics,
Red Kite Design is your preferred partner for the specification,
design and production of the electronics you need.
Before starting Red Kite Design, Steven has developed designs for
telecommunications, space and defense applications. The common item
throughout these designs is the uniqueness of the requirements. Each
of these fields presents its own requirements and its own quirks. The
only way to succesfully develop products in those circumstances is to
carefully analyse all relevant requirements, and start the creative
design process with an open mind. Something Steven de Rooij is very
good at.
Steven de Rooij holds a Master of Science degree in Electronics from
Delft University of Technology.
Steven de Rooij or Red Kite design has experience with a broad range of
technologies and applications.
