Senior Director / VP – Software & Systems Architecture, Digital Pathology

This leadership role will define and drive the software architecture for Evident’s next-generation Autonomous Digital Pathology platform—spanning robotic scanner control, embedded compute, AI container orchestration, and cloud-scale data systems. You will work with a proven engineering team to extend autonomy across the entire ecosystem—from robotic slide handling and imaging to inference, monitoring, data orchestration, and intelligent user experiences. This is both a hands-on architectural and strategic leadership role, pivotal to Evident’s mission to deliver intelligent, self-optimizing digital pathology systems worldwide. This is a defining opportunity to architect and guide the development of next generation of intelligent, self-learning diagnostic imaging systems. **Key Responsibilities**: 1 | Platform & Systems Architecture: - Define and evolve the architecture for platform, integrating robotics, imaging, AI, and data pipelines. - Establish standards for modularity, scalability, and interoperability. - Drive the roadmap from automation toward intelligent autonomy. 2 | Robotics & System Autonomy: - Architect frameworks for robotic motion control, sensor fusion, and adaptive imaging that enable self-correcting, high-throughput scanning. - Integrate real-time feedback loops that couple mechanical precision with AI-based decision-making. - Ensure reliability, calibration, and deterministic performance across devices. 3 | Compute & AI Architecture: - Optimize CPU and GPU architectures for camera and motor controls, low-latency AI inference and real-time image analysis. - Standardize compute frameworks (CUDA, TensorRT, ONNX Runtime, etc.) across scanner and workstation environments. - Enable third-party AI model deployment through secure, containerized runtimes. - Implement adaptive feedback systems allowing scanners to “think and respond” intelligently. 4 | Cloud, Data & Intelligence: - Architect the on-prem and cloud data infrastructure connecting scanners, metadata, AI inference, and analytics. - Define APIs and synchronization layers between edge devices and cloud services. - Ensure compliance with HIPAA, GDPR, and IVDR, while enabling scalable, hybrid deployments. 5 | Leadership & Team Development: - Mentor the engineering team, blending startup agility with Evident’s global engineering scale. - Collaborate with R&D, Product, and Operations to align architecture with business goals. - Represent Evident’s technology vision in executive, customer, and partner engagements.
