Job description

Apple's Engineering Program Management team is looking for a Senior Engineering Program Manager to lead the SoC Failure Analysis efforts. This role focuses on operational excellence and program execution throughout Apple's silicon lifecycle. The manager will coordinate cross-site efforts, manage logistics, and capture institutional knowledge while partnering with technical leads on debugging. The position serves as a critical link between system failures and circuit-level performance limitations, directly supporting engineers in chip development.

Requirements

  • BS degree with 10 years of relevant experience in the semiconductor industry.
  • Strong background in Failure Analysis, Silicon Debug, Silicon Validation, or Product Engineering.
  • Working familiarity with bench-level electrical verification and fault isolation.
  • Knowledge of VLSI circuit design, manufacturing, packaging, and chip validation processes for 5nm technology and below.
  • Advanced experience with 15+ years in technical and program management roles.

Responsibilities

  • Drive technical debug by participating in bench-level functional debug on silicon validation boards.
  • Establish processes and workflows for FA intake, triage, prioritization, escalation, and closure.
  • Orchestrate cross-functional execution by partnering with various teams to improve performance and yield.
  • Institutionalize learnings by building and maintaining the FA knowledge base and facilitating retrospectives.
  • Own logistics and operational reporting by managing sample lifecycle logistics and defining KPIs.

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.
