Systems Architect

Position Overview

• Location Type: Remote
• Job Type: Full Time
• Salary: Not specified

We are building safety-enhancing technology for aviation that will save lives. Automated aviation systems will enable a future where air transportation is safer, more convenient and fundamentally transformative to the way goods — and eventually people — move around the planet. We are a team of mission-driven engineers with experience across aerospace, robotics and self-driving cars working to make this future a reality.

As a Systems Architect at Reliable Robotics, you will be a part of the Systems team and will report to the Systems & Safety Manager. The Systems & Safety Team is responsible for architecting systems which support novel safety-critical functions, establishing development methodologies for new technologies, and complying with the federal regulations. As part of an experienced multi-disciplinary team, you will contribute to expanding the aircraft's operational and functional capabilities. Your professional experience in system design and development will further strengthen the team's ability to meet rigorous expectations of stakeholders and certification authorities. You will collaborate with members from other groups within Reliable Robotics to architect new and novel systems necessary for unmanned aircraft operations.

Requirements

• Minimum 7+ years of experience designing and integrating various complex safety-critical aerospace systems
• Demonstrated self-starter with the ability to solve problems from first principles
• Ability to work well independently and cross-functionally

Responsibilities

• Define new/novel functions necessary to control autonomous aircraft and manage contingencies
• Perform the decomposition of aircraft, system and LRU functions, define the system physical / logical architecture and allocate functionality
• Perform trades studies to assess performance, complexity, risk, and cost of competing technical solutions
• Work closely with system and safety analysts to define system architectural features to meet safety and security requirements
• Derive and validate requirements and interfaces based on the architecture to ensure correct and complete implementation at the next design level
• Support product development all the way through development up to production, test, and certification
• Collaborate with other domains within Reliable Robotics
