- Lead the architecture, design, and integration of end-to-end inspection systems, including sensors, electronics, data acquisition, and analytics.
- Translate inspection requirements and performance targets into system specifications and test plans.
- Own system-level trade-off decisions across hardware, software, and inspection performance.
- Develop and implement signal analytics methods for processing, denoising, and interpreting inspection data.
- Formulate and solve inverse problems to infer material states, defects, or geometry from measured signals.
- Drive implementation of advanced algorithms (e.g., optimization, reconstruction, classification) to improve detection and characterization.
- Provide technical leadership on inspection technology, signal analytics, and system integration topics.
- Mentor and coach junior engineers and scientists on system-level thinking and hands-on implementation.
- Review designs, algorithms, and test results to ensure technical rigor and alignment with project objectives.
- Plan and lead system-level tests, pilots, and validation activities in lab and field environments.
- Analyze performance metrics and identify opportunities for improvement in sensitivity, robustness, and usability.
- Document system behavior, limitations, and lessons learned, and drive continuous improvement initiatives.
- Collaborate with design, manufacturing, operations, quality, and product management teams to ensure inspection solutions meet business and customer needs.
- Communicate complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Contribute to roadmaps, proposals, and strategy for inspection technologies and related products.
