Your role in the team
- Subproject Management Hardware (Electronics): technical leadership of a small team, planning and controlling work packages, as well as responsibility for results, deadlines, and progress.
- Designing and developing digital architecture: formulate, evaluate, and consolidate architectural decisions (e.g., FPGA, SoC, ADC/DAC, e.g., JESD204B) into a viable system design — even when technical requirements are uncertain or still open.
- Develop platform, module, and device concepts with the technical project manager and architects, and build in-depth overall system knowledge (ideally including basic RF measurements such as power and spectrum).
- Responsible for and document multi-board and platform architecture, including interfaces between hardware and software (board-to-board, control, power supply); consider analog/digital frontend and connection of the RF frontend to the digital part.
- Coordinate collaboration between hardware, firmware, and software teams together with other architects and prepare viable architectural decisions.
- Responsible for device integration and verification; coordinate integration, production, and verification milestones between hardware and software, as well as with the sub-project management of production.
- Create or update product descriptions, test procedures, and datasheets; manage and be responsible for device-specific approvals (Quality Gates).
- Assess the feasibility, effort, and risk of the concepts and report transparently to the technical project manager; if there are impacts on deadlines, budget, or escalations, additionally inform the overall project management.
Our expectations of you
Education
- Completed degree in Electrical Engineering, Communications Engineering, or a comparable qualification, with several years of relevant professional experience.
Qualifications
- Broad understanding of architectural design decisions (FPGA, SoC, ADC/DAC, e.g., JESD204B) to develop and evaluate system designs.
- Understanding of FPGA and ARM; sufficient to technically manage firmware packages and interfaces.
- Solid knowledge of power management.
- Proficient in interface definition and documentation (ICD) as well as in typical Board-to-Board and control interfaces.
- Willingness to take on platform architecture and device responsibility in a single role, shaping and developing digital architecture, and handling uncertain or still open technical requirements (new development).
- Analytical, conceptual working approach (assessing and documenting feasibility, effort, and risk).
- Fluent German, good English in spoken and written form.
- Understanding of mixed-signal processing, particularly the interface between RF frontend and digital part.
Experience
- Proven experience in multi-board and platform hardware architecture (concept, partitioning, interfaces).
- Practical experience with high-speed analog/digital frontends (baseband processing up to approximately 50 Gbit/s).
- Experience in device integration and verification as well as in handling Quality Gates and release processes at the device level.
- Advantage: Experience with military supply requirements (e.g., MIL-STD-1275E).
- Experience in leading hardware development topics and coordinating external firmware teams.
- Experience in defense, aerospace, or similarly regulated hardware projects.
- Experience with typical digital building blocks such as Channelizer and Equalizer.
