Lead the end-to-end electrical architecture for complex high-tech systems. You will define technical concepts, interfaces and design rules, guide engineers and architects, make critical design trade-offs and ensure systems meet demanding performance, reliability, safety and manufacturability requirements.
Highlights
Principal-level technical leadership role with ownership of end-to-end electrical architecture and major influence over platform roadmaps and critical design decisions.
Description
As Lead Electrical Architect, you are the system owner for the Infrastructure, Interlocking and Computing function of Nearfield Instruments’ metrology platforms.
Together with your team, you define the electrical architecture, platform roadmaps, make key technical trade-offs, and ensure robust execution from early concept through industrialized systems deployed at leading semiconductor fabs.
You operate as a principal-level engineer: hands-on where it matters, decisive in design choices, and a technical authority across disciplines.Responsibilities Electrical System OwnershipOwn and actively lead the end-to-end electrical architecture at system level, combining your own architectural input with leadership of architects and engineers to deliver solutions that meet performance, reliability, safety, and manufacturability targets.
Translate system requirements into clear electrical concepts, interfaces, and design rules.
