R+D Systems Staff Engineer - Architect Digital ...

Job DescriptionJOB SUMMARY: The Staff R+D Systems Engineer will be part of a team developing new products for the medical diagnostics market. In this role, the Staff Systems Engineer serves as the System Architect for Diagnostic products, guiding end-to-end solution architecture across software, hardware, mechanical, and design/UX. The Staff Systems Engineer will oversee system architecture across multiple complex projects, working with project systems engineers to ensure that a methodical approach is utilized to translate needs into a sustainable system architecture, define interfaces and architectural budgets, and drive cross-domain technical alignment. This role will work closely with the teams implementing the architecture into a technical solution, making sure that architectural trade-offs and issues are properly analyzed and resolved. ESSENTIAL/PRIMARY DUTIES: Defines and maintains system architecture for complex diagnostic products, including structure, key behaviors, interface concepts, allocation boundaries, and architectural budgets (performance, safety, reliability, cost, etc.). Leads cross-domain trade studies and documents architecture decisions. Chairs an architecture review forum to drive timely alignment, closure, and decision rationale capture. Defines and governs system and subsystem interfaces; identifies architectural gaps and drives resolution among a diverse group of project stakeholders. Provides system-level technical integration intent (how subsystems fit together and what must be true at interfaces) and ensures cross-domain implementation choices remain consistent with the intended architecture. Works cross-functionally and collaboratively with project systems engineers to translate customer and business needs into clear system requirements and guides allocation to subsystem requirements. Reviews, helps develop, and approves architectural content expressed in MBSE models and associated architecture documentation, ensuring consistency across views and decision records. Partners with Diagnostics leadership to research and recommend forward-looking architecture options (technology roadmaps, platform strategy, make/buy, and key technical bets) to support the diagnostics business unit roadmap. Collaborates with senior leadership to drive alignment between technical decisions and business objectives. Communicates technical vision to executives and external partners as needed. Mentors systems engineers in best practices regarding system architecting and model-based approaches. Helps establish reusable architecture patterns and guardrails for future diagnostic projects, including collaborating with cyber-security engineering to ensure that security is designed into product architectures. SECONDARY DUTIES: Presents risk assessments and potential impacts to executives, enhances risk management processes. Provides expertise in shaping IP strategies aligned with organizational goals. Drives the creation of significant and impactful IP. Reviews the critical analyses of multiple project teams as an independent assessment. Exercises balanced judgement in determining which parts of an analysis requires deeper review. EDUCATION and/or EXPERIENCE: Bachelor's degree and 10+ years of experience within the medical device or other highly regulated industries, or equivalent combination of both. Master's degree preferred. INCOSE CSEP certification or ability to obtain certification within 2 years of employment. OMG SysML Model Builder Advanced certification preferred. Familiarity with embedded software and real-time system constraints is strongly preferred. COMPETENCY and/or SKILL: Ability to act as an expert problem solver across technology platforms and engineering disciplines. Ability to serve as a technical leader on a platform team or program, influencing effectively in a matrixed environment. Ability to operate at multiple levels of abstraction, from broader solution and platform architecture down to subsystem-level interfaces and constraints. Ability to use strategic planning skills to set clear objectives and priorities aligned to business outcomes. Familiarity with embedded software architecture, integration considerations, and constraints is strongly preferred but not required. SUPERVISORY RESPONSIBILITIES: Mentors Engineer III and Sr. Engineer teammates, focusing on leadership skills, cultural competencies, and strategic thinking. May have a limited number of direct reports.
