The posting

FALCATA is currently seeking a Senior Product Architect in Aurora, CO, Arlingto, VA, Huntsville, AL, or remote to lead the architecture and technical direction of integrated RF-based solutions for ummanned ISR and weapon systems across development, integration, test, and production.

FALCATA offers a professional working environment, a competitive salary, and an excellent benefits package. Come and join our team!

Responsibilities:

The Product Architect is the senior technical authority responsible for architectural coherence, technical reuse, and cross-platform consistency across a product line or mission capability portfolio. This role defines and governs the technical framework that allows products and platform integrations to share common components, interfaces, data products, and design patterns while still meeting platform-specific mission needs. The Product Architect works horizontally across programs and products to ensure technical decisions support long-term scalability, interoperability, manufacturability, and mission effectiveness. This role is especially important where the same core capability must be integrated onto multiple platforms with minimal reinvention.

  • Define and maintain the technical architecture for a product line spanning multiple platform integrations.
  • Establish common interface standards, data products, performance assumptions, and architectural design rules.
  • Drive technical reuse across platforms, sensors, software components, and integration patterns.
  • Serve as the primary technical authority for decisions that affect more than one platform or product variant.
  • Guide platform teams on how to implement product-line capabilities while preserving commonality where it matters.
  • Partner with System Architects and engineering leads to ensure platform-specific designs align with product-line architecture.
  • Identify where architectural flexibility is needed to support different sensors, host platforms, autonomy engines, or mission packages.
  • Lead technical trade studies related to modularity, common interfaces, performance, scalability, and future growth.
  • Help shape roadmaps by identifying enabling architectural investments and technical debt reduction priorities.
  • Support proposal and capture activities with technical strategies that maximize reuse and reduce future fragmentation.
  • Coordinate with Product Engineering Services to ensure architecture can be implemented, tested, and sustained realistically.
  • Maintain visibility into technical risks, obsolescence, and divergence across the product line

Required Qualifications:

  • Minimum BS in an engineering discipline (i.e. electrical, mechanical, software, etc.) or applied science (i.e. physics, mathematics)
  • Minimum 12 years of experience in industry
  • Deep experience in system architecture for complex defense or aerospace systems.
  • Ability to think across hardware, software, interfaces, mission behaviors, and lifecycle constraints.
  • Demonstrated success creating reusable, modular architectures across more than one platform or product.
  • Strong understanding of integrated sensing, mission software, autonomy interfaces, and platform constraints.
  • Ability to balance technical elegance with practical implementation, schedule, and cost realities.
  • Ability to lead through influence across multiple teams rather than direct line authority alone.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, especially for technical decision-making and trade studies.
  • Able to prioritize work and maximize productivity.
  • Ability to obtain and maintain a TOP SECRET DoD Clearance.
  • U.S. Citizenship required.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with modular open systems approaches, mission systems integration, and platform adaptation.
  • Experience in RF systems, EO/IR, autonomy, guidance, navigation, ATR, EW, or similar mission technologies.
  • Experience supporting both development and transition to production/sustainment.
  • Familiarity with DoD mission systems, interface governance, and verification strategies

In compliance with applicable pay transparency laws, the expected salary range for this position is $157k-225k year, depending on experience and location. This role is also eligible for an annual performance bonus and may include equity or incentive compensation as part of the total rewards package.

FALCATA Benefits:

FALCATA offers a stable work environment, a competitive salary, and a comprehensive benefit package; including 401k Plan, Flexible Work Schedules, Tuition Reimbursement, Co-Sponsored Health Plan, Paid Leave and much more.

Applying to FALCATA:
