The Embedded Firmware Engineer will join Apple's Wireless Connectivity Silicon team, focusing on the development of embedded firmware for System on a Chip (SoC) solutions. This role emphasizes PHY bring up, RF calibrations, and signal processing algorithm implementation. The engineer will collaborate closely with product software and manufacturing teams to enable wireless connectivity and productization of silicon systems. This position is critical for ensuring the functionality of wireless products that reach millions of customers.

• Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• Strong background in embedded firmware development using C and assembly languages.
• Good understanding of embedded wireless communication systems, Radio and PHY fundamentals.
• Familiarity with digital signal processing algorithms.
• Experience with low-level hardware interfaces and bare-metal software development.
• Fluency in using lab equipment such as logic analyzers and oscilloscopes.
• Proficient in at least one scripting language such as Python, Perl, or Tcl.

• Craft and implement embedded firmware for SoC bring up and wireless connectivity enablement.
• Work closely with product software and manufacturing teams to provide system-level API and firmware functionality.
• Develop SoC test and calibration capabilities for wafer, module, and system factories.
• Collaborate with RF/Radio design, DVT, PHY, and System engineering teams to implement innovative algorithms and protocols.
• Debug real-time systems with limited visibility using development boards and lab equipment.
• Support pre-silicon validation efforts, including simulation and FPGA prototyping.
• Support post-silicon bring up, validation, performance characterization, and system integration.

• Employees at Apple are often offered comprehensive benefits that support physical and mental well-being—flexible medical plans, confidential counseling, onsite wellness centers at major campuses, and resources for fitness and daily life.
