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.
