Position Overview
We are seeking an experienced Systems & Functional Architecture Lead to oversee the complete lifecycle of complex system designs. In this role, you will lead cross-functional engineering teams to ensure functional architecture feasibility, maximize component standardization and reuse, and align technical execution with quality, cost, and schedule objectives.
Key Responsibilities
System Feasibility & Execution: Drive system design feasibility to achieve project quality, cost, and schedule targets.
Standardization & Reuse: Establish standardized design practices and maximize the reuse of functions, components, and parts to shorten time-to-market and reduce development costs.
Cross-Disciplinary Coordination: Oversee and synchronize activities across specialized engineering disciplines, including Systems Designers, Component Leaders, and Analyst Engineers.
Technical Milestone Reviews: Plan and lead major technical system reviews, including System Requirements Reviews (SRR), System Functional Reviews (SFR), and Preliminary Design Reviews (PDR).
Architecture & Lifecycle Management: Organize, govern, and maintain the system architecture and product lifecycle via PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) systems.
Progress Verification: Monitor, measure, and control progressive system convergence and milestone achievement using architectural data and domain views.
Project Reporting: Provide clear, data-driven system-level technical status updates and risk assessments to Project Management.
Profil
Technical Skills & Competencies
Functional Architecture Mastery: Expert-level knowledge of functional architecture design and system decomposition.
Connected Services Expertise: Deep understanding of connected vehicle/IoT service frameworks (e.g., authentication, user profiles, feature activation, automated emergency call/xCall).
Requirement Breakdown: Proven ability to translate high-level customer requirements into discrete functional groups and sub-system architectures.
Safety Integration: Ability to incorporate operational safety, hazard mitigation, and functional safety requirements into overall system architectures.
Configuration & Traceability Governance: Strong knowledge of complex system documentation structures, traceability standards, and enforcing configuration management practices across teams.
Domain Knowledge (Plus): Exposure to complex mechanical and electronic vehicle systems (e.g., powertrains, braking systems, ADAS, chassis controls) is highly advantageous.
Modeling Tools (Plus): Experience modeling electronic/electrical architectures using Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) or system engineering software tools.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience: 5+ years of experience in systems engineering or functional architecture within a multidisciplinary product development environment.
Communication: Ability to apply rigorous technical documentation practices and communicate clearly with both technical specialists and executive project managers.
