MR Architect

Design and lead cutting-edge MR system architectures and subsystems-whether ASIC, RF, or digital modules-from concept through full product release. Serve as a technical authority, interfacing with cross-functional teams (ASIC, hardware, firmware, software, manufacturing) to deploy high-performance, reliable MR solutions.

Lead full lifecycle development of MR-specific hardware components:

• Architect mixed-signal ASICs (RF ADC/DACs, demodulation blocks, digital filters) and RF subsystems.
• Oversee system architecture, integration, and roadmap definition for MR modules-driving IP creation and competitive differentiation.

Provide guidance on FPGA-to-ASIC transitions, and hardware verification (UVM or equivalent).

Define, document, and uphold functional specifications; establish test and verification plans to ensure coverage and debug readiness.

Mentor and oversee module teams through prototyping, integration, quality investigations, and full product introduction phases.

Model and simulate MR subsystems, lead prototype testing, and evaluate performance against stringent MR requirements.

Collaborate with firmware and software groups to define communication protocols, driver interfaces, and system control strategies.

Maintain up-to-date technical expertise in MR technologies (ASIC, RF, mixed-signal, digital), identifying opportunities for innovation and strategic sourcing.

Champion quality across lifecycle, managing technical risk, investigating field issues, and driving continuous improvement.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent).
• Minimum 15 years' relevant experience in:
• Mixed-signal ASIC design within MR systems OR
• RF subsystem architecture in MR context.
• Proficient with ASIC design tools (Cadence, Synopsys), RF design/simulation platforms (e.g., ADS), and RTL languages (SystemVerilog, VHDL).
• Strong DSL in hardware verification (UVM or equivalent).
• Demonstrated success leading technical teams and delivering complex MR-enabled modules or systems.
• Intimate familiarity with MR physics and system-level architecture.
• Excellent documentation, presentation, and cross-functional communication skills.

Preferred Skills

• Prior contributions to MR product IP and patents.
• Experience planning MR subsystem roadmaps, strategic technology scouting, and vendor integration.
• Understanding of MR regulatory standards and medical device qualification processes.
