Descrição
Director, System Architecture & Integration
We are seeking a Director of System Architecture and Integration to own the architecture of ARC’s robotics and automation solutions and to drive the integration of technologies from across our engineering groups into deployable products. This is a hands-on technical leadership role at the center of how ARC turns capabilities into systems that run in production.
You will define the system architecture and the interfaces between subsystems, lead the engineering of the physical embodiments of those solutions, and hold accountability for integrating software, hardware, controls, robotics, and perception into a coherent whole that meets our standard: zero programming, zero commissioning, zero incidents.
You will set the architectural direction and guide it to decisions the engineering teams can build against. You will work across software, hardware, controls, robotics, and machine vision teams to resolve interface ownership, close technical gaps, and ensure the integrated system performs in environments that demand 24/7 production with no faults.
What you’ll own
• System-level architecture for ARC solutions, including subsystem decomposition and the interface definitions that hold the system together
• Engineering of the embodiments of those solutions, from architecture through realized, integrated hardware and software
• Integration of technologies developed by separate engineering groups (software, hardware, controls, robotics, perception) into unified, deployable products
• Architectural decisions and trade-offs across disciplines, with clear ownership rather than open-ended description
• Robustness and reliability of the integrated system in continuous, fault-intolerant production settings
• Technical alignment across teams, translating solution-level goals into concrete subsystem requirements and holding the interfaces between them
• The architectural standards, reference models, and review practices that keep solutions coherent as they scale across products and plants
What you bring
• Demonstrated ability to architect and integrate complex multidisciplinary systems, not just lead within a single discipline
• Working fluency across software design and hardware design
• Hands-on experience with industrial controls and PLCs
• Direct experience with industrial robotics and machine vision
• A track record of deploying solutions into environments that require 24/7 uptime with zero tolerance for faults
• The judgment to make architectural decisions under ambiguity and the credibility to align engineering groups behind them
Required qualifications
• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, or a related technical field
• 10+ years of engineering experience, with 5+ years architecting or integrating multidisciplinary systems that combine software, hardware, and controls
• Demonstrated experience defining system architecture and interface specifications across subsystems and engineering disciplines
• Hands-on experience with industrial controls and PLC platforms (for example Allen-Bradley / Rockwell, Siemens, or Beckhoff)
• Direct experience with industrial robotics (for example Fanuc, ABB, KUKA, Universal Robots) and machine vision systems
• Proven delivery of automation or robotics solutions into production environments with 24/7 uptime requirements and low tolerance for faults
• Experience leading and developing engineers, and aligning multiple teams behind a shared technical direction
Preferred qualifications
• Master’s degree in a relevant engineering or robotics discipline
• Experience with ROS / ROS2 and modern robotics software stacks
• Familiarity with functional safety standards relevant to industrial robotics and automation (for example ISO 10218, ISO/TS 15066, IEC 61508)
• Experience with simulation, digital twin, or virtual commissioning tools
• Experience taking solutions from prototype to productized, repeatable deployment across multiple sites
