Motion Sensing System Architect

What you'll do

• Drive the motion sensing feature roadmap by evaluating emerging technologies and user needs.
• Translate feature requirements into system-level requirements and specific sensor module specifications.
• Build and validate quantitative end-to-end models of the sensing signal chain to guarantee performance.
• Optimize sensor placement using modeling and simulation to meet mechanical, thermal, and electromagnetic constraints.
• Define and execute comprehensive validation plans spanning from initial characterization through production.
• Perform architectural trade-off analyses across performance, manufacturability, size, schedule, and cost.
• Diagnose engineering issues using scientific methods to identify root causes and drive resolutions.
• Manage multi-source sensor performance matching and coordinate with suppliers to resolve specification issues.

What we're looking for

• BS degree and a minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience.
• Practical understanding of motion sensors (magnetic, inertial, pressure) and relevant physics.
• Experience in architecture and system-level design of sensing systems.
• PhD with 5+ years of hands-on experience and a proven track record shipping motion sensor or sensing system products (preferred).
• Experience in architecture, design, characterization, and validation of MEMS sensing systems (preferred).
• Deep, multi-disciplinary understanding of EE, ME, transducer physics, and system engineering principles (preferred).
• Proficiency in modeling, simulation, and analysis tools such as ANSYS Maxwell, COMSOL, MATLAB, Python, and JMP (preferred).
• Strong fundamentals in signal processing, probability, and statistics (preferred).
