System Architect

Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your system engineering expertise in a cutting-edge field. You’ll work alongside innovative and collaborative teammates.

You'll play a crucial role in shaping the system design and specifications, defining the architecture that drives our projects forward. Day-to-day, you’ll work closely with teams across the business, including engineering, project management, and quality assurance, to ensure seamless integration and alignment with stakeholder expectations, and much more.

You’ll specifically take care of leading the preparation of system specifications (e.g., RS, AD, OCD, ID) while considering non-technical requirements like RAMS and safety, but also supporting continuous improvement initiatives such as Return of Experience (REX) and process optimization.

We’ll look to you for:

• Defining and managing system architecture and specifications
• Assessing input readiness and system baseline maturity during design reviews
• Conducting technical reviews, impact analyses, and maintaining consistency across documents
• Automating system specification deliveries
• Providing inputs to build and maintain competency in system specifications
• Ensuring configuration management for documents
• Collaborating with the System Application Architect for project evolutions and anomalies
• Preparing project documents like training materials and user manuals
• Managing risks and reporting potential impacts on system development
• Ensuring seamless handover of mature documents to system engineers
