You'll lead Qt/QML application architecture across the product, partner closely with UX design leadership and product to shape multi-release direction, and drive standards for interaction patterns, state management, accessibility, and performance in a regulated environment. You'll mentor senior UI engineers across teams, drive root cause on the hardest UI problems - the ones tangled up with real-time data, GPU rendering, and clinical workflow - and raise the engineering bar for UI software in a medical device, where every interaction has to be fast, clear, and correct., * Lead architecture for the Prism Mapping application UI - Qt/QML structure, state management, navigation, theming, accessibility, and performance. * Define multi-release direction for the UI in partnership with UX design leadership and product. * Set the engineering bar for UI code on clarity, safety, testability, and performance under clinical conditions. * Lead the design and delivery of major subsystems, cross-cutting architecture, or large technical initiatives. * Exercise broad technical judgment in defining approaches to complexsystemand architectural problems with limited oversight. * Drive technical alignment across software, systems, quality, product, and other cross-functional teams. * Establish and promote software design patterns, engineering standards, and development best practices. * Provide technical leadership across teams through mentoring, design reviews, and guidance on critical engineering decisions. * Identifyand drive improvements in architecture, development processes, and system design. * Shape the technical roadmap and architectural direction for major subsystems or product capabilities. * Communicate complex technical tradeoffs, risks, and recommendations to stakeholders across functions. ## Related Videos - [Data Science, ML & AI in the Oil and Gas Industry at NDT Global - Dr. Katja Träumner](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1308-data-science-ml-ai-in-the-oil-and-gas-industry-at-ndt-global-dr-katja-traumner) - [Python-Based Data Streaming Pipelines Within Minutes](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1233-python-based-data-streaming-pipelines-within-minutes) - [Times of (climate) crisis - How and why sustainable software is a must!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/988-times-of-climate-crisis-how-and-why-sustainable-software-is-a-must) - [10M Data Records Lost, Underwater Computing, and Psychedelic Fish - Matthias Geniar](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1908-10m-data-records-lost-underwater-computing-and-psychedelic-fish-matthias-geniar) - [AI in High-Stakes Industries: Lessons Learned](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100253-ai-in-high-stakes-industries-lessons-learned) - [Leveraging Real time data in FSIs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/806-leveraging-real-time-data-in-fsis) ## Related Articles - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [Top-Paying Tech Jobs (with Salaries)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/372-top-paying-tech-jobs-with-salaries) - [The Biggest German Tech Companies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/424-the-biggest-german-tech-companies) - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers) - [Are Brain-Computer Interfaces Good or Bad?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/367-are-brain-computer-interfaces-good-or-bad)
