Job description
The N&V Testing Engineer will be part of Apple's Noise & Vibration team, which focuses on minimizing distracting audible noises and optimizing sound quality in hardware design. This role involves testing and analyzing acoustic noise generating mechanisms and working closely with cross-functional teams to develop innovative solutions. The engineer will also collaborate with simulation engineers to enhance modeling methodologies. A strong background in structural dynamics and hands-on experience in vibration testing are essential for success in this position.
Requirements
- Minimum 2+ years of experience in the noise and vibration field.
- Extensive hands-on experience in structural vibration testing design and execution.
- Strong ability to interpret complex testing results to draw meaningful conclusions.
- Experience in product noise and vibration root cause identification.
- Experience in Matlab or other programming tools for analysis and post-processing.
- Some experience in experimental modal analysis, transfer path analysis, and sub-structure synthesis.
- PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Audio/Acoustic Engineering, or equivalent.
Responsibilities
- Test and analyze acoustic noise generating mechanisms and transmission paths.
- Design test setups and collect critical data for failure analyses.
- Provide insight on results with expert knowledge.
- Work closely with simulation engineers to provide expert analysis on simulation-test correlation.
- Propose improvements to modeling methodologies.
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.
