Job Description Summary The Architect Engineer - Electrical (Analog & Mixed Signal) plays a key technical and strategic role in shaping the architecture, design, and verification of high‑performance analog and mixed‑signal electronics that power our next‑generation Imaging Detectors (CT) and Digital Electronics Platform. Your work will directly influence innovations such as Photon Counting CT (Pluto) and support our commitment to delivering reliable, high‑quality, and cost‑effective products used in healthcare settings worldwide. In this role, you will lead system‑level analog/mixed‑signal architecture, define performance budgets (noise, SNR/ENOB, linearity, bandwidth, jitter, SI/PI, EMC), and guide concept‑to‑production execution across new product introduction (NPI) programs. You will also contribute to Installed Base (IB) quality initiatives and Variable Cost Productivity (VCP) efforts that help make our technology more accessible to patients and clinicians. You will collaborate with a broad, global team-including Systems Engineering, Digital Electronics, Mechanical Engineering, Firmware, Sourcing, Manufacturing, Quality, and Service-to deliver robust and scalable solutions. We value inclusive teamwork, thoughtful communication, and a growth mindset, and we welcome candidates who are passionate about advancing medical technology and eager to mentor others. Job Description Job Responsibilities Lead end ‑ to ‑ end analog/mixed ‑ signal architecture development for imaging detector subsystems, including AFEs, ADCs/DACs, precision references, PLL/clocking, and power management. Translate product and clinical needs into clear technical specifications, system trade studies, and performance budgets; partition analog vs. digital/FPGA/SoC functionality. Develop and evolve design guidelines for low ‑ noise, precision, and high ‑ speed mixed ‑ signal designs (grounding, shielding, isolation, filtering, return paths, guard rings, controlled impedance). Facilitate multi ‑ disciplinary design reviews, including Technical Design Reviews (TDRs), DFMEA/FMEA, risk assessments, and reliability planning. Direct the design and review of low ‑ noise AFEs (e.g., TIAs, PGAs, drivers), data ‑ converter interfaces, precision references, protection/ESD, and power architectures (LDOs, DC ‑ DC). Guide PCB stack ‑ up, placement, and layout for mixed ‑ signal integrity (SI/PI/EMC), approving critical constraints and clearances. Lead multi ‑ level simulation efforts: SPICE (noise, linearity, corners/Monte Carlo), SI/PI/EMI, behavioral modeling (Verilog ‑ A/AMS, MATLAB/Simulink), and mixed ‑ signal test benches. Define verification strategies, characterization matrices, and test automation; lead lab bring ‑ up and structured root ‑ cause analysis using a variety of measurement tools. Ensure designs meet EMC/EMI, safety, and reliability requirements; align deliverables with IEC 60601 ‑ 1/60601 ‑ 1 ‑ 2 or comparable regulated ‑ industry standards. Create and maintain functional specifications, verification plans, traceability documentation, and release artifacts. Lead evaluations related to component obsolescence and Supplier Change Requests; support VCP and cost ‑ reduction efforts while upholding clinical and regulatory performance. Support Installed Base quality initiatives and field issue resolution through structured problem ‑ solving and design updates. Mentor and coach engineers at various career stages, fostering a culture of inclusion, technical excellence, collaboration, and continuous improvement. Work productively across global, cross ‑ functional teams and with external suppliers and partners. Required Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (EE) or a related field. 10+ years of experience in analog and mixed ‑ signal architecture and design for high ‑ performance systems (e.g., medical imaging, industrial sensing, communications, aerospace, or similar). Proficiency with schematic capture tools (e.g., Cadence OrCAD/Allegro, Altium) and oversight of mixed ‑ signal PCB layout. Strong communication skills, including the ability to collaborate across functions and communicate complex concepts clearly.
