This position is part of the Silicon Validation Hardware team, focusing on the design and manufacturing of high-performance, power-efficient processors and system-on-chip (SoC) solutions for Apple products. The role involves collaborating with various teams to develop specifications, conduct high-speed board designs, and implement test circuits. You will be responsible for debugging complex system-level problems and ensuring the integrity of the silicon engineering efforts. This is a critical role that enables the next generation of Apple products and enhances user experiences.

• BS in Electrical, Computer or related degree program with 3 years of experience.
• Experience with schematic level board design.
• Understanding of board bring-up and debug strategies.
• Strong fundamentals in electrical engineering concepts, including transistor operation and signal integrity.
• RTL experience using Verilog or VHDL, preferably with FPGA design experience.
• Proficiency with standard hardware lab equipment such as scopes and analyzers.
• Test automation expertise using Perl, Tcl, or Python.

• Develop specifications based on requirements from cross-functional teams.
• Conduct schematic capture, circuit design, and define layout and routing constraints.
• Perform board bring-up, testing, characterization, and debugging.
• Analyze power and signal integrity.
• Design and characterize high-speed interfaces.
• Debug a wide range of issues on test boards and production systems.

• 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.
