This senior technical role focuses on Systems Architecture and Design within PCS Hardware Platforms. You will provide crucial systems-design leadership for Common OS and Common UI platform releases. The position ensures these platforms meet all system and product requirements, adhere to medical-device standards and internal quality systems, and are delivered with exceptional quality, traceability, risk control, and technical evidence.

Your responsibilities will involve aligning subsystem requirements, architecture, interfaces, design controls, verification strategies, technical reviews, release evidence, and lifecycle decisions across both Common OS and Common UI. You will collaborate closely with System Architects, Product Owners, platform and component architects, verification leaders, cybersecurity, quality, regulatory, program teams, and consuming product teams.

The role demands strong systems thinking, deep knowledge of embedded software and Linux platforms, an understanding of reusable UI platforms, and rigor in medical-device development. You will lead complex technical initiatives and drive progress through influence, coordinating cross-platform dependencies, compatible baselines, integration milestones, product adoption, and consolidated release readiness.

Own subsystem requirement definitions, ensuring they align with system requirements, user needs, intended use, and platform strategy. Lead the definition of subsystem requirements, ensuring flow-down to design outputs, component requirements, interfaces, and verification evidence.

Provide shared systems-design leadership for coordinated Common OS and Common UI releases, managing joint planning, dependencies, 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, ensuring 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, driving FMEA, FTA, risk-benefit analysis, and risk-control traceability. Define and monitor platform-health metrics covering quality, reliability, cybersecurity, defect trends, technical debt, obsolescence, and adoption.

Review product-to-platform and Common OS-to-Common UI interface requirements, maintaining clear ownership, compatibility expectations, and supported version combinations. Drive integrated validation with product teams, covering interface, compatibility, performance, upgrade, failure-recovery, cybersecurity, and regression considerations.

Establish integrated Common OS and Common UI release-readiness reviews, encompassing dependencies, risks, verification evidence, deviations, known limitations, and product-consumption readiness. Coordinate defect triage and technical decisions for cross-boundary issues. Conceptualize and drive proofs of concept for new platform capabilities, influencing roadmaps for Common OS, Common UI, processes, and engineering tools. Mentor engineers and emerging system designers in systems engineering, design controls, risk management, technical reviews, and evidence-based decision making.

A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related STEM discipline is required. Typically, 10+ years of engineering experience, with significant exposure to 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 is essential. Experience with regulated product development, design controls, risk management, quality systems, and cross-functional technical reviews is also crucial.

Possess 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 like C or C++, along with scripting experience using Python and/or shell, is necessary. A proven ability to lead complex technical initiatives across multiple teams, products, sites, or business stakeholders through influence is expected.
