System Architect

The System Architect is a highly influential technical leader who will define the end-to-end system architecture and product vision for next-generation clinical solutions. In this role, you will transform unmet customer needs and emerging technologies into scalable, high-impact product designs—establishing the frameworks, requirements, and integration strategies that bring complex, multi-disciplinary systems to life. As a key driver of innovation, you will collaborate across engineering and cross-functional teams to turn bold ideas into reality—bridging vision with hands-on execution. You’ll help shape transformative solutions that enable clinicians to see with greater clarity, work more ergonomically, and deliver more efficient, high-quality patient care. Essential Duties And Responsibilities Define system architecture and product direction Lead the definition of system architecture and product vision for complex, multi-disciplinary solutions. Translate customer needs, clinical workflows, and emerging technologies into clear system requirements and performance targets. Break down high-level concepts into actionable subsystem requirements with end-to-end traceability. Drive subsystem integration and interoperability Establish system boundaries, interfaces, and integration strategies to ensure seamless interoperability across electrical, mechanical, optical, and software domains. Lead architectural trade-off studies and make informed decisions that balance performance, cost, usability, and scalability. Identify and proactively mitigate system-level risks, dependencies, and integration challenges. Lead hands-on system design and rapid prototyping Build and guide rapid prototypes to validate architecture, de-risk key technologies, and accelerate learning. Define and evaluate system performance across critical dimensions such as responsiveness, accuracy, reliability, and user experience. Stay close to the hardware and software—leading from the front during integration, debug, and iteration cycles. Provide technical leadership and execution discipline Lead and mentor a cross-functional team of engineers, fostering strong system thinking and engineering rigor. Operate within an Agile development model—driving sprint planning, prioritization, and incremental delivery of working solutions. Facilitate design and architecture reviews that promote alignment, clarity, and high-quality decision‑making. Collaborate across the organization Partner closely with Product Management, Clinical/Voice‑of‑Customer teams, Quality/Regulatory, Manufacturing, and external partners. Ensure solutions are not only innovative, but also feasible, manufacturable, and scalable. Support the transition from concept through development into validation and production. Required Job requirements: Bachelor’s degree in a technical field (e.g., Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Optical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering, or similar). 15+ years of experience designing and developing complex products that integrate multiple engineering disciplines. 5+ years of system-level architecture experience, including ownership of system design, subsystem definition, and integration. Proven track record of bringing innovative products from concept through development and into market. Willingness to travel 10–15% to support ideation, voice‑of‑customer, and supplier development activities. Preferred Experience with products that require tight integration of hardware and software. Experience with wearable, head‑mounted, or ergonomics‑driven product design. Experience in regulated industries (medical device preferred). Systems thinker at your core: You naturally connect the dots across disciplines and understand how decisions at one level impact the entire system. Deep technical breadth: Strong experience across electro‑mechanical systems, optics, and software‑enabled products. Architectural leadership: You bring structure to ambiguity—defining clear architectures, interfaces, and design frameworks that teams can execute against. Bias for action: You move quickly from concept to prototype, using rapid iteration to learn, refine, and improve. Agile mindset: Comfortable working in sprint‑based environments, breaking complex problems into manageable increments that deliver real progress. Influence and leadership: You lead through expertise and clarity, aligning teams and driving decisions without formal authority when needed. Strong communicator: You can clearly articulate complex technical concepts to engineers, cross‑functional teams, and leadership. Customer‑focused: You are motivated by solving real‑world problems and creating solutions that meaningfully improve user outcomes. Comfortable working in a hands‑on prototyping and lab environment. Ability to handle sensitive information with professionalism and discretion.
