Fluke Calibration is seeking an experienced Staff Systems Engineer to provide system-level technical leadership for Electrical Calibration (ECAL) products based at Fluke Park, Everett, sustaining industry-leading calibrators while defining architectures for next-generation platforms.


You will own end-to-end system behavior across hardware, firmware, software, manufacturing, and service, serving as technical authority for architectural decisions, risk management, and long-term product integrity across multi-decade lifecycles.


This role requires strong technical judgment and cross-functional influence to balance metrology performance with manufacturability, supply-chain longevity, and serviceability in partnership with Product, Engineering, Operations, and Service.


Key Responsibilities


System Architecture & Technical Leadership


+ Own and evolve system architectures for sustaining and next-generation ECAL platforms.


+ Serve as technical authority for tradeoffs (accuracy, stability, control, thermals, cost, risk, and supportability).


+ Guide architecture across Electrical, Firmware, Software, Mechanical, Manufacturing, and Service.


Requirements & System Definition


+ Define, document, and manage system requirements that translate customer, regulatory, and metrology needs into executable designs.


+ Ensure requirements traceability from concept through verification, production, and sustaining.


+ Lead system‑level design reviews and provide technical direction on complex or ambiguous problems.


Sustaining Engineering & Lifecycle Stewardship


+ Provide senior technical leadership for sustaining programs, including component EOL mitigation, factory transfers, performance improvements, and field issue resolution.


+ Ensure system integrity and calibration performance are preserved across design changes and manufacturing updates.


+ Act as a key knowledge steward for long‑lived platforms, supporting onboarding and technical continuity


Quality, Manufacturability & Verification


+ Ensure system designs are robust, manufacturable, and verifiable, supporting low‑volume / high‑mix production environments.


+ Partner with Manufacturing, Quality, and Service teams to define test strategies, calibration flows, and service models.


+ Support verification and validation activities to ensure products meet Fluke standards for accuracy, safety, and reliability.


Cross ‑ Functional Influence


+ Collaborate closely with Product Management to align technical decisions with business and customer priorities.


+ Influence without authority across multiple teams and sites, including global development and manufacturing partners.


+ Communicate complex system concepts clearly to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.


Qualifications


+ Bachelor or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent technical field.


+ Extensive experience in system‑level design and technical leadership for complex electronic products.


+ Strong foundation in precision analog and digital electronics, control systems, and calibration or measurement systems.


+ Proven ability to lead technical direction across disciplines without direct managerial authority.


+ Experience working with microprocessors, DSPs, FPGAs, and laboratory instrumentation (DMMs, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, calibrators).


+ Strong technical documentation, review, and communication skills.


Desired


+ Experience designing and sustaining test, measurement, or calibration products with long service lifetimes.


+ Familiarity with global compliance and safety standards (e.g., CE, FCC, RoHS, IEC 61010).


+ Experience supporting manufacturing scale‑up, factory transitions, or long‑term supply chain strategies.


+ Demonstrated history of solving ambiguous, system‑level technical problems with durable solutions.
