Within TECH Research organization, the Advanced Connectivity Technologies team (12 people) drives innovation in next-generation wireless communication systems for automotive applications.

As a System Architect - Connectivity Technology Enablers, you will contribute to the definition, evaluation, and maturation of advanced connectivity solutions enabling future vehicle platforms. You will work at the intersection of research, system architecture, and innovation, translating emerging technologies into structured, feasible automotive system concepts.

You will be part of an international organizational unit supported with local functional management which will require to have frequent cross regional interactions involving teammates in France and Italy.

You will play a key role in assessing technical feasibility, system-level integration, and architectural trade-offs, while contributing to the broader Stellantis connectivity roadmap.

With this role you will be requested to cover US specific customers and their needs and to connect with US specific eco-system (standardization, and local suppliers and partners eco-system) including internal stakeholders (senior fellows, product owners, AVP, MODULES, PLAN and Brands)Key ResponsibilitiesSystem Architecture & Technical LeadershipDefine and contribute to end-to-end system architectures for advanced connectivity enablers (e.g., NTN, 5G Advanced, 6G, V2X, connectivity for autonomy).Translate product and stakeholder needs into:

System requirementsTechnical specificationsInterface definitionsEnsure architectural consistency across vehicle, edge computing , and cloud domains.

Perform system-level trade-off analysis (performance, cost, scalability, reliability).Innovation & Technology AssessmentEvaluate emerging connectivity technologies, including:5G Advanced / 6GNR-V2X / C-V2XNon-Terrestrial Networks (NTN - LEO/GEO)Edge computing, network slicing, private networks, mmWaveLead or contribute to feasibility studies and proof-of-concepts aligned with Technology Readiness Levels (TRL).Support the transition from research to development programs.

Simulation & Technical AnalysisContribute to system-level and link-level evaluations (PHY/MAC) using tools such as MATLAB, ns-3 or similar.

Analyze wireless system performance under automotive constraints (mobility, latency, coverage, reliability).Ecosystem & StandardizationContribute to and monitor standardization bodies:3GPP, SAE, IEEEIndustry alliances such as 5GAACollaborate with industrial and academic partners to identify innovation opportunities.

Support preparation of technical reports, publications, and invention disclosures.
