Wind River is pioneering software technologies that power Mission Critical AI Systems across telecommunications, industrial automation, healthcare, automotive, aerospace, and defense. Our solutions operate at the intelligent edge, where safety, security, performance, and reliability are non-negotiable.
We are transforming our developer tooling platform to enable the next generation of engineers building real-time and embedded systems. Join us to shape the architecture of tools that power mission-critical innovation worldwide.
ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY
We are looking for a Senior Member of Technical Staff to define and lead the technical vision for Wind River’s next-generation developer tooling platform.
This role is responsible for the end-to-end architecture of our modern Workbench platform — migrating and evolving legacy Eclipse-based tooling into a scalable, extensible Visual Studio Code–based ecosystem powered by TypeScript and React.
You will work across multiple teams and products to ensure our tools platform supports complex embedded workflows, remote development, debugging, performance analysis, and AI-assisted development experiences.
This is a hands-on architecture leadership role that combines deep technical expertise, cross-team influence, and long-term strategic thinking.
Responsibilities
Platform & System Architecture
Own the overall architecture and long-term technical strategy for Wind River’s developer tools platform.
Define the architectural vision for a modular, extensible VS Code–based ecosystem, including extension frameworks, APIs, service integration layers, and UI architecture.
Lead the modernization strategy for migrating Eclipse-based tooling into a future-proof architecture.
Establish patterns for scalability, performance, security, and maintainability across the platform.
Technical Leadership Across Teams
Provide architectural guidance across multiple engineering teams (frontend, backend, tooling, DevOps).
Drive cross-product technical alignment and ensure consistency of design principles and integration patterns.
Lead architectural reviews and govern key technical decisions.
Mentor senior engineers and technical leads, raising the architectural maturity of the organization.
Developer Experience & Tooling Innovation
Architect solutions for complex developer workflows such as:
Cross-compilation and build orchestration
Debugging and trace analysis
Remote target connectivity
Static/dynamic code analysis
AI-assisted development tooling
Guide the evolution of plugin and extension ecosystems to support internal teams and external partners.
Ensure the platform supports large-scale embedded and real-time system development efficiently.
Technology Strategy & Evolution
Evaluate and introduce new technologies, frameworks, and architectural approaches aligned with long-term product strategy.
Drive adoption of modern frontend architecture patterns, service integration models, and DevOps practices.
Influence roadmap planning with a strong understanding of technical trade-offs and future scalability needs.
Quality, Performance & Reliability
Define system-wide standards for performance optimization, observability, resilience, and security.
Lead initiatives to improve build, release, and deployment pipelines for tooling components.
Oversee strategies for testing at scale, including integration, performance, and platform compatibility testing.
