Core Responsibilities

• Define and own the comprehensive system-level architecture of next-generation high-power ICs, including control, telemetry, and embedded memory
• Meet with customers to gain insight into pain points, emerging trends, and associated product development needs
• Collaborate across teams, including field and system application engineers, design leads, product definers, and marketing to set project goals and timelines
• Develop and maintain system models for use by application, design, verification, and evaluation teams

Critical Contributing Responsibilities
System Architecture Leadership

• Drive the product architecture throughout the lifecycle, managing requirements, executing system level design, identifying issues, and recommending solutions
• Lead architecture reviews for the product development teams and make enhancements based on feedback
• Drive architectural level research efforts to support innovation and competitive analysis

Technical Execution

• Evaluate system models to ensure the system design meets performance metrics
• Derive block-level performance targets from higher-level architecture requirements
• Support lab evaluation and debugging of hardware emulation or engineering prototypes of integrated circuits

Customer & Industry Engagement
