This role involves joining a team of expert software engineers to develop graphics validation software for Apple's next-generation processors and system-on-chip (SoC). The focus is on creating solutions that stress the GPU and validate system-level performance. You will work closely with various technologies and architectures to ensure seamless integration and functionality. The position requires a deep understanding of GPU architecture and a passion for meticulous validation.

• A minimum of a bachelor's degree in a relevant field.
• A minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience in silicon validation software engineering or a related field.
• Experience with Graphics, OpenGL, and CUDA.
• Understanding of the GPU pipeline and graphics theory.
• Understanding of system and SoC architectures.
• Strong C/C++ programming skills.
• Proficient in Python and GNU Make.
• In-depth knowledge and experience in SoC system level validation and debugging of SoC software and hardware issues.

• Develop graphics validation software and integrate it into the system level test environment.
• Write shaders that stress the GPU and manage high bandwidth traffic to and from the memory subsystem.
• Apply deep understanding of GPU architecture to write tests that stress the pipeline and exercise the interaction between the GPU and different IP blocks on the SoC.
• Use necessary driver and firmware APIs to compile shaders and manage data movement in the SoC using GPU threads/SIMD groups.
• Debug SoC software and hardware issues and perform system level validation.

• 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.
