Hardware Architect

As a Hardware Architect, your primary role is to design and develop hardware systems that are efficient, scalable, and seamlessly integrated with software and firmware components. Your responsibilities will include: - Designing and architecting hardware systems and components. - Collaborating with software and firmware teams to ensure smooth integration. - Developing and documenting hardware specifications and standards. - Leading and managing hardware design projects from concept to production. - Performing simulations, testing, and validation of hardware components. - Analyzing and optimizing system performance and reliability. - Staying updated with the latest trends and technologies in hardware design. In addition, some key aspects of your role will involve: - Defining and leading the hardware architecture strategy for complex systems, such as SoCs, embedded platforms, and high-performance computing devices. - Collaborating with product management, software, and mechanical teams to translate business requirements into scalable hardware solutions. - Overseeing the full hardware development lifecycle from concept to production. - Evaluating emerging technologies and guiding make/buy decisions. - Leading architectural reviews, risk assessments, and design validation processes. - Mentoring and guiding senior and junior engineers to foster a culture of technical excellence. - Contributing to IP strategy, patent filings, and technical publications. - Representing the hardware team in executive-level discussions and strategic planning. Qualifications required for this role include: - Proven track record in designing and delivering complex hardware systems (e.g., SoCs, FPGAs, ASICs, high-speed boards). - Experience with industry-standard tools for simulation, modeling, and verification such as Cadence Allegro, Altium, LT Spice, Tina, BQR Reliability Tool, and Web-Bench. - Proficiency in communication protocols including MODBUS, EtherCAT, EthernetIP, Profinet, PROFIsafe, as well as interfaces like UART, RS232, RS485, RS422, I2C, SPI, and QSPI. Your expertise in system design, firmware development, embedded systems, RTOS, and embedded development will be considered desirable skills for this role.,
