About this role
What you'll do
- Own system architecture, requirements, and design documentation with full traceability from top-level sensor performance to component-level implementation.
- Lead architectural decomposition and integration across optics, opto-mechanics, electronics, firmware, DSP, and software — including performance budgeting, interface definition, and verification planning.
- Hands-on ownership of opto-mechanical requirements (optical path, alignment, thermal/mechanical stability, packaging) and DSP subsystem requirements (signal chain architecture, performance targets, algorithm interfaces, verification criteria).
- Conduct system modeling, trade studies, and test-data analysis to validate architectural decisions and resolve cross-domain integration issues.
- Develop and maintain Functional Safety and Cybersecurity concepts (FMEA, FTA, TARA, etc.) and ASPICE-aligned work products.
- Serve as the senior systems liaison across engineering disciplines and in design/milestone reviews; provide technical guidance on critical deliverables as needed.
What you have
- 10 + years in Systems Engineering or a related role, with end-to-end ownership of complex sensor or embedded systems.
- Hands-on experience in sensor systems, with depth in opto-mechanics/optics and DSP/signal processing. Lidar experience strongly preferred.
- Expertise in ASPICE, ISO 26262, ISO/SAE 21434, and ISO 21448 processes and documentation.
- Experience with requirements management tools (e.g., DOORS, Polarion, JAMA) and MBSE/SysML (preferred).
- Strong analytical and communication skills; comfortable driving technical trade-offs across multidisciplinary teams.
What's in it for you
- Be the first systems engineer in our Bangalore office in this domain — help establish the team, culture, and technical foundation from the ground up
- Be part of a fast-paced and dynamic team
