The role involves leading and conducting complex trade studies to define the architecture for next-generation autonomous driving systems. The individual will develop and analyze architectural options while prioritizing safety through robust fallback systems and high reliability. Collaboration across diverse engineering teams is required to ensure cohesive system design and well-integrated interfaces. The position entails creating technical recommendations for senior leadership and justifying architectural choices through data analysis. Additionally, the role requires decomposing architectural decisions into requirements for subsystem development and managing the evolution of system generations.

Candidates must possess a bachelor's degree in Engineering or a related technical field. A minimum of five years of experience in systems architecture, systems engineering, or complex system design is required, with a preference for backgrounds in autonomous vehicles, aerospace, or robotics. Applicants need a proven ability to lead technical trade studies and a strong understanding of high-availability design for safety-critical applications. Proficiency in at least one major autonomous system component area and exceptional communication skills are essential for the role.
