Jobbeschreibung

The Principal Systems Architect will serve as a technical expert and customer advocate for our Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) portfolio, specificallyEEPROM and ReRAM-based products. This role combines hands‑on technical support, product definition, and cross‑functional collaboration to ensure successful integration and adoption of our memory solutions across automotive, industrial, and consumer markets.

Responsibilities

System Architecture & Technical Leadership

• Own system‑level architectural positioning productsolutions across automotive and industrial platforms, including:
  • Zonal controllers and centralized compute.
  • Power distribution (OBC, DC/DC, EPS, braking, ADAS).
  • Front‑end protection and sensing architectures.
• Translate customer system requirements into actionable guidance for ICD product definition, NPIs, and portfolio gaps.
• Current sensing and signal chain.
• Logic and interface (I²C/I3C, SPI, GPIO).
• Protection and analog building blocks.
• Act as the technical arbiter in architectural tradeoffs (accuracy vs. cost, integration vs. flexibility, roadmap timing vs. customer urgency).

Customer Engagement & Communication (Primary Focus)

• Serve as lead system architect in customer discussions:
  • Technical workshops.
  • Architecture deep dives.
  • Roadmap alignment meetings.
  • Escalation support for complex design‑in issues.
• Drive system‑level credibility with Tier‑1s and OEMs (e.g., EPS, zonal, ADAS, powertrain, body electronics).
• Shape customer perception of onsemi as a system solution partner, not a component vendor.
• Support FAEs by providing system context, reference architecture, and competitive positioning guidance.
• Drive product roadmaps and New Product initiatives s by:
  • Identifying system‑level gaps (as demonstrated in CSA, HV sensing, zonal architectures).
  • Providing architecture‑driven justification for investment decisions.
• Partner with Product Line, Marketing, and Applications teams to ensure roadmaps align with evolving customer architectures, not just pin‑to‑pin replacements.
• Contribute to architecture‑led differentiation, emphasizing innovation over replication

Qualifications

Experience Requirements

• 10+ years experience in:
  • Automotive or industrial semiconductor systems.
  • Applications engineering, systems engineering, or architecture roles.
• Demonstrated track record of:
  • Leading system‑level customer engagements.
  • Influencing product direction through architectural insight.
  • Supporting multiple product lines simultaneously.
• Prior experience in Field Applications, Systems Engineering, or Technical Leadership roles.
