The Brief

What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.

Design a real-time sensor-fusion architecture that cuts cross-modality disagreement from 12-15 percent to under 4 percent at 12 pilot intersections.

This is not a design exercise. It is the work a product designer does between a brief and a shipped interface. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates redesign Spotify's homepage and none who have worked under real product constraints.

When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."

Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate

Design multi-modality sensor-fusion architectures with explicit noise models
Implement Kalman or particle filters for real-time cyber-physical systems
Validate fusion outputs against ground-truth video
Specify edge-compute + MQTT architecture for municipal-grade reliability

Canonical roles

Systems Architect
Systems architects make the decisions whose consequences are felt for years. The role is about choosing: which cloud provider, which integration pattern, which trade-off between cost and reliability deserves an Architecture Decision Record so the next team understands the reasoning. You'll work in C4 diagrams, ArchiMate models, and the AWS or Azure Well-Architected Framework, but the real artifact is clarity of thought. Strong architects know when to standardize and when to let a team diverge, and they write documents that survive a leadership change. Students drawn here usually loved their distributed systems course and are patient enough to think before they build. Growth happens through scars: owning architectures end-to-end, watching them strain under real load, and learning which abstractions earned their place.
