Sr Engineer - Systems Architecture and Desig

Overview

Senior systems architecture and design role within PCS Hardware Platforms, providing shared systems-design leadership for coordinated Common OS and Common UI platform releases.

What you'll do

• Own subsystem requirement definitions derived from system requirements, user needs, intended use, and platform strategy, and ensure flow-down to design outputs, component requirements, interfaces, and verification evidence.
• Provide shared systems-design leadership for coordinated Common OS and Common UI releases, including joint planning, dependency management, integration milestones, readiness reviews, and release decisions.
• Lead system decomposition, interface definition, architecture-to-requirement traceability, critical-to-quality attributes, non-functional requirements, and documented technical trade-offs.
• Balance safety, security, privacy, usability, performance, reliability, serviceability, manufacturability, cost, reuse, and lifecycle sustainability.
• Own the subsystem Design History File strategy and ensure completeness, consistency, traceability, and audit readiness of engineering evidence.
• Define subsystem verification strategies and ensure bidirectional traceability among requirements, risks, verification methods, results, anomalies, and release decisions.
• Ensure subsystem and component Technical Design Review strategies align with system plans and the needs of Common OS and Common UI.
• Lead product and subsystem risk profiling based on intended use, safety, privacy, and cybersecurity; drive FMEA, FTA, risk-benefit analysis, and risk-control traceability.
• Define and monitor platform-health metrics covering quality, reliability, cybersecurity, defect trends, performance, technical debt, obsolescence, and adoption.
• Review product-to-platform and Common OS-to-Common UI interface requirements; maintain clear interface ownership, compatibility expectations, and supported version combinations.
• Drive integrated validation with product teams, including interface, compatibility, performance, upgrade, failure-recovery, cybersecurity, and regression considerations.
• Establish integrated Common OS and Common UI release-readiness reviews covering dependencies, risks, verification evidence, deviations, known limitations, and product-consumption readiness.
• Coordinate defect triage and technical decisions for issues crossing operating system, UI framework, middleware, application, hardware, or product boundaries.
• Conceptualize and drive proofs of concept for new platform capabilities and influence Common OS, Common UI, process, and engineering-tool roadmaps.
• Mentor engineers and emerging system designers in systems engineering, design controls, risk management, technical reviews, and evidence-based decision making.

What you'll need

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related STEM discipline.
• Typically 10+ years of engineering experience, including substantial experience in systems architecture and design, embedded software, platform engineering, or medical-device development.
• Demonstrated experience translating system and product needs into subsystem requirements, interfaces, design outputs, verification strategies, and traceable release evidence.
• Experience with regulated product development, design controls, risk management, quality systems, and cross-functional technical reviews.
• Technical depth in embedded Linux architecture and development, middleware or application architecture, cybersecurity, reusable platform technologies, and Qt/QML application development.
• Proficiency in at least one programming language such as C or C++, with scripting experience using Python and/or shell.
• Demonstrated ability to lead complex technical initiatives across multiple teams, products, sites, or business stakeholders through influence.

Nice to have

• Master's degree in Systems Engineering, Computer Science, Electronics, Biomedical Engineering, or a related discipline.
• Experience developing and sustaining reusable platforms consumed by multiple medical-device products.
• Experience coordinating releases across interdependent operating-system and user-interface platform areas.
• Experience with Yocto Project or Buildroot, Linux BSPs, bootloaders, device drivers, NXP or TI application processors, and hands-on Qt/QML development for embedded user interfaces.
• Working knowledge of INCOSE-aligned systems-engineering practices, requirements modelling, interface management, CTQs, FMEA, FTA, and risk-benefit analysis.
• Experience with Agile development, CI/CD, DevOps, automated verification, configuration management, SBOM practices, lifecycle vulnerability management, and defect management.
• Experience across concept, new product introduction, sustaining engineering, installed-base support, obsolescence, and end-of-life phases.
• Ability to communicate complex technical decisions clearly to engineering teams, quality and regulatory partners, product stakeholders, and senior leadership.
