We are searching for self driven, passionate electrical engineers to provide design, validation, and manufacturing support.

Our products are on the groundbreaking in every way: integration, connectivity, power consumption, fabrication, reliability, manufacturing scale, and design.

Play a meaningful role in the development of Apple products, collaborating with the Cupertino-based design team in the process, including:

• Product Design / Mechanical Engineering
• HW design, prototype bring-up and electrical validation
• Firmware, iOS
• Acoustics, EMC, Reliability, Operations, etc.

Additionally, craft positive relationships with the Contract Manufacturer’s EE team, and take a lead role in driving those teams to achieve our validation and manufacturing goals with a very high bar of quality.

The people here at Apple don’t just build products — they build the kind of wonder that’s revolutionized entire industries. It’s the diversity of those people and their ideas that inspires the innovation that runs through everything we do, from amazing technology to industry-leading environmental efforts. Join Apple, and help us leave the world better than we found it.

The position is based in the Shanghai/Kunshan area. Some international travel is required, to work side by side with engineers in Cupertino.

Responsibilities include:

• Develop understanding for an Apple-designed product through schematics and datasheets, as well as interactions with the Cupertino based design team
• Occasional circuit or system design, including component selection, schematic capture, board design and fabrication, and validation
• Leading and interacting with our contract manufacturers’ EE teams, driving them to a high level of quality
• Driving validation and failure analysis process in the factory
• Firmware and programming / scripting skills are a big benefit here.

Required Experience and Skills:

• BS/MS/PhD EE
• You should have great EE fundamentals. This means you have a deep understanding of why our discipline works the way it does; you've developed an intuition and can apply it to new topics because you understand the basics. (analog/digital design, signal/power integrity, etc.)
• Hands-on experience in prototype bring-up and debugging, functional verification.
• Experience crafting high volume products from beginning to end and dealing with contract manufacturers
• Experience in low power embedded systems, from 8-bit and 16-bit micro-controllers to multi-core ARM based SoC’s, is deeply beneficial. Every μA is scared.
• Experience with lab equipment including oscilloscopes, DMM’s, VNA’s, thermal test equipment, etc.
• Experience with leading PCB technology and electrical design and characterization of the following areas: DDR3/4, PCIe gen3, USB3, LPDP, MIPI and I2C/SPI/UART buses.
• Experience in one or more of the following areas: CPU/SOC, power(DC-DC converters, battery, power management, low power design), analog circuits, audio/camera/display/wireless integration and measurement, sensor design and integration.
• Expertise in board CAD tools including Cadence Concept & Allegro
