About Us
Harmattan AI is a next-generation defense prime building autonomous and scalable defense systems. Following the close of a $200M Series B, valuing the company at $1.4 billion, we are expanding our teams and capabilities to deliver mission-critical systems to allied forces.
Our work is guided by clear values: building technologies with real-world impact, pursuing excellence in everything we do, setting ambitious goals, and taking on the hardest technical challenges. We operate in a demanding environment where rigor, ownership, and execution are expected.
About The Role
As a
System Architect
, you will own the end-to-end architecture, system definition, and strategic implementation for our entire portfolio of robotic systems, from long-term vision to field deployment, collaborating closely with executive leadership and technical leads, and forming a critical partnership with the Product Manager to ensure efficiency; this pivotal role drives strategic programs like Anti-drone warfare, ISR and strike systems, Equipment fusion (especially aeronautics), or C2 and IA.
Responsibilities
- System-of-Systems Design & Strategy: Translate complex strategic goals into global, system-of-systems designs, defining and championing the overall system architecture strategy across the enterprise.
- Architectural Sizing & Verification: Ensure all systems meet defined needs and are correctly sized through rigorous verification of scope, complex system-of-systems simulations, and precise system sizing, guiding major technical investments.
- Coordination and Technical Leadership: Coordinate large multidisciplinary engineering organizations, providing overarching technical leadership across cross-functional design efforts (mechanical, electrical, software, GNC, ML, product), ensuring long-term performance, robustness, and strategic reliability across the enterprise.
- Specification & Integration Governance: Govern system integration standards and validation processes, contributing to the complex process of specification management by ensuring all architectural prerequisites are met and driving multi-system architecture reviews for enterprise design consistency.
Candidate Requirements
We look forward to hearing how you can help shape the future of autonomous defense systems at Harmattan AI.
