- Architecture
System architect who owns the system and electrical architecture of advanced semiconductor test equipment in Nijmegen, translating customer and roadmap needs into requirements and leading a ~10-person cross-site team (Nijmegen & Hong Kong). Focus on high-power analog electronics with digital aspects and CE/SEMI compliance.
- Define, maintain, and further develop the system and electrical architecture for advanced semiconductor test equipment;
- Translate customer needs, market input, and product roadmap requirements into clear functional and technical requirements;
- Own the end-to-end technical design process, from concept and system architecture to detailed design, PCB-level decisions, component selection, validation, and verification;
- Lead the electrical design direction for complex systems, with a strong focus on high-power design and mostly analog electronics, combined with digital design aspects;
- Provide technical leadership, coaching, and guidance to a cross-site team of approximately 10 engineers, electrical designers ranging from junior to experienced, split between Nijmegen and Hong Kong;
- Act as a technical partner for engineers, helping them understand architectural choices, design rationale, risks, and trade-offs;
- Drive concept studies, pre-development activities, and proof-of-concept work for new technologies and building blocks;
- Identify technical risks early and support reliable project planning through clear effort estimations and risk assessments;
- Ensure compliance of test systems with applicable regulatory standards, such as CE engineering, SEMI standards, and other relevant industry requirements;
- Own architectural solutions across projects to ensure consistency with the product architecture and technology roadmap;
- Collaborate with multiple internal and external stakeholders, including customers, suppliers, engineering outsourcing partners, manufacturing partners, and prototyping partners;
- Maintain and expand a strong technical network with the R&D teams, universities, technology institutes, industry boards, suppliers, and competitors;
