Define guardrails to ensure AI and ML solutions add value, are robust, interpretable, scalable, and production appropriate. Delivery Velocity, Quality & Reliability Accelerate software delivery while improving robustness, determinism, and long‑term maintainability. Drive a shift from ad hoc implementation toward design, architecture, then execute, with explicit trade‑offs and clear ownership. Build end‑to‑end accountability so engineers own solutions from requirement distillation through deployment and sustainment. Act as the escalation point for complex software issues during product development and qualification. People Leadership & Organizational Scale Lead, coach, and develop a small software team, setting clear expectations around technical rigor, accountability, and ownership. Stabilize execution, raise quality and delivery discipline, and identify capability gaps required for future growth. Influence contributors beyond direct reports by defining consistent software standards and ways of working across the CoE and aligned CoEs. Qualifications Required BSc in Computer Science, Software/System Engineering, or equivalent practical experience. 7+ years of professional software engineering experience, including technical leadership of complex systems. Proven ability to architect solutions across embedded, real‑time, and edge‑based software environments. Experience driving improvements in delivery through architecture, tooling, and development processes. Comfortable operating hands‑on when required. Preferred Experience working at the intersection of software, hardware, physics, and applied algorithms. Prior technical leadership of small teams; formal people‑management experience is a plus. Why This Role in the Plasma Diagnostics CoE You’ll join a small, high‑autonomy R&D organization within Applied Materials that delivers differentiated diagnostics critical to future technology nodes. This role offers real technical ownership, broad influence, and a flexible growth path toward senior management or principal technical leadership as the CoE scales.
