Join Apple's Wireless team as an engineer focused on RF, communication, software, and signal processing. You will work with a small team to design and produce precision RF and analog test equipment for various Apple devices. This hands-on role involves bench debugging, RF applications support, and developing automated test software. You will collaborate closely with internal customers and cross-functional teams to ensure the accuracy and reliability of test equipment.

Requirements

  • BS in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related field; MS preferred.
  • 3–4 years of hands-on experience in RF, wireless, or test/measurement engineering.
  • Strong RF fundamentals and ability to debug RF problems using standard RF test equipment.
  • Proven experience developing automated test software in Python and/or C++.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Willingness to travel internationally up to 15%.
  • Experience with RF system calibration methods and procedures.
  • Recent experience analyzing RF parameters in Python or MATLAB.
  • Working knowledge of DSP and communications theory.
  • Familiarity with cellular (5G/4G), Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, mmWave, UWB, or NFC radio test and measurement.
  • Familiarity with RF test equipment vendors.
  • CI/CD experience and a track record of integrating automated tests into a pipeline.
  • Hands-on experience using AI assistants and agentic coding workflows.
  • Experience applying AI/ML techniques to RF data analysis.

Responsibilities

  • Characterize and troubleshoot RF measurement systems on the bench.
  • Develop and maintain automated test and calibration software.
  • Collaborate with hardware, software, and customer teams.
  • Ensure test equipment accuracy and reliability at production scale.
  • Engage with internal customers to support their needs.
  • Debug RF problems and implement automation to prevent recurrence.
