Job description

This role is for a system validation engineer within the Analog-Mixed/Signal design team at Apple. The position involves working on high-speed serial links and collaborating with various teams to ensure the quality and efficiency of embedded circuits. The engineer will tackle technical challenges and contribute to the development of innovative products that enhance people's lives. A strong background in analog mixed-signal design and a passion for learning and teamwork are essential.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant field and 10+ years of industry experience.
  • Experience in high-speed serial links and knowledge of common high-speed SerDes protocols like PCIe, USB, DP, and MPHY.
  • Solid understanding of designing analog mixed signal circuit blocks including Bandgap, biasing circuits, LDO regulators, amplifiers, and ADCs.
  • Hands-on experience with AMS IC development from definition to high-volume production.
  • Skills in scripting and automation to enhance efficiency are highly desirable.

Responsibilities

  • Own the SerDes system bring-up, validation, and debug processes.
  • Verify basic operations and analyze robustness and margins in system environments.
  • Collaborate with design teams to understand architecture and define DFT needs.
  • Engage in mixed-signal verification tasks to understand SerDes operation.
  • Drive lab and production testing, debug, and data analysis.

Benefits

  • 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. Families typically receive fertility support, paid parental leave with gradual return, caregiving leave, and dependent-care guidance, while financial perks commonly include stock grants (with purchase discounts), 401(k) matching, and income-protection coverage. Employees also see robust time off, Apple University learning and tuition reimbursement, donation matching and paid volunteer hours, and deep product and partner discounts.
