Summary of Role:
Role mission: Build and lead a customer-facing systems and solutions engineering function that translates customer product architectures into processor, mixed-signal IP, platform, software, and product-roadmap requirements. This is customer product systems engineering, not internal silicon/IP development ownership.
The Director, Systems & Solutions Engineering will establish and scale a new customer-facing systems team for the Custom Digital MCU/MPU business. The leader will work directly with customer engineering organizations to understand product architectures, identify system-level requirements, position GF/MIPS processor and design/IP capabilities, and translate learnings into actionable product roadmap needs for product management, silicon architecture, software, and engineering teams.
The role requires a rare combination of customer credibility, embedded processor systems depth, hardware/software fluency, and commercial design-win orientation. The successful candidate will be equally comfortable with customer chief engineers, product executives, internal software, Hardware and IP engineering teams, sales leaders, and hands-on systems engineers.
Essential Responsibilities:
Build and lead the Systems & Solutions Engineering team covering 32-bit MCU and 64-bit MPU product portfolios across multiple markets.
Serve as first-line technical interface to strategic customer engineering teams; understand customer product architectures, pain points, competitive alternatives, and roadmap timing.
Translate customer system requirements into processor, mixed-signal IP, safety/security, connectivity, software, package, toolchain, and product roadmap requirements.
Develop market-specific solution narratives for SDV/zonal, chassis and body control, robotics, motor drive, industrial automation, networking/infrastructure, e-mobility, and Edge AI.
Partner with product management and silicon/software engineering to prioritize roadmap investments and derivative platform opportunities.
Support major design-win pursuits with technical differentiation, architecture positioning, competitive analysis, NRE/derivative framing, and executive customer engagement.
Create reusable system collateral: reference architectures, competitive tear-downs, customer requirement matrices, software/hardware partitioning guides, and market playbooks.
Build relationships with customer decision makers in engineering, architecture, platform, and advanced technology organizations.
Establish operating rhythms between sales, product, architecture, design, software, and customer teams to ensure field learnings become roadmap action.
Other Responsibilities:
Perform all activities in a safe and responsible manner and support all Environmental, Health, Safety & Security requirements and programs.
Required Qualifications
15+ years of semiconductor, embedded processor, systems, applications engineering, product architecture, or customer solutions experience.
Strong background in MCU/MPU products, embedded software, system architecture, customer product requirements, and hardware/software partitioning.
Demonstrated experience working directly with customer engineering organizations and influencing design decisions.
Track record of closing or materially supporting design wins, platform wins, or strategic customer engagements.
Ability to lead through influence across product management, sales, silicon architecture, software, and design engineering.
Proven ability to hire, mentor, and scale high-performing technical teams.
Excellent executive communication skills; able to simplify complex technical tradeoffs for business and customer audiences.
Preferred Background / Target Talent Pools
Applications, systems, product architecture, or customer engineering leadership from Embedded Processor companies.
Customer-side systems architecture experience from automotive Tier-1s/OEMs, industrial automation, robotics, networking, or infrastructure companies.
Experience with functional safety, cybersecurity, secure boot/HSM, AUTOSAR or embedded Linux/RTOS ecosystems, and long-lifecycle industrial or automotive products.
Established credibility and network with engineering decision makers in one or more priority verticals.
Success Measures
Systems team staffed and operating with clear vertical ownership and repeatable customer engagement process.
Customer requirements converted into prioritized roadmap inputs and derivative platform opportunities.
Improved technical win rate in strategic pursuits through earlier architecture engagement and sharper positioning.
Reusable market playbooks created for SDV/zonal, robotics/motor drive, industrial automation, networking/infrastructure, and Edge AI.
Deep engineering relationships established with target customers and ecosystem partners.
