Job description

We are looking for talented Analog Mixed-Signal designers to join our high-speed SerDes team, which focuses on developing next-generation high-performance wireline transceivers for Apple's system-on-chip products. In this role, you will collaborate with cross-functional teams to create and drive state-of-the-art IPs that enhance user experience. You will be challenged to deliver best-in-class designs while ensuring high standards of quality, innovation, and efficiency. This position offers an opportunity to work on complex designs and learn about end-to-end systems.

Requirements

  • BS degree and a minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Deep understanding of analog mixed-signal design with experience in high-speed serial links.
  • Experience designing analog mixed-signal circuit blocks including Bandgap, biasing circuits, LDO regulators, amplifiers, comparators, switched-cap circuits, ADCs, DACs, oscillators, and filters.
  • Understanding of analog mixed-signal concepts like mismatch mitigation, linearity, stability, low-power, and low-noise techniques.
  • Experience with high-speed digital circuits and solid understanding of digital design concepts.
  • Proven track record of working with system and architecture teams to drive block-level and IP requirements for high-speed IO in 100+ Gbps NRZ and PAM applications.
  • Hands-on experience in advanced CMOS technologies and design with FinFET technology.

Responsibilities

  • Work on the development of high-performance and high-speed AMS circuits used in SerDes PHY.
  • Evaluate different circuit topologies for specific product requirements.
  • Lead discussions with cross-functional teams to create and drive block-level specifications.
  • Collaborate closely with SOC teams to deliver IP views that meet quality standards.
  • Interact regularly with peers and management to communicate progress and discuss new ideas.
  • Drive lab testing, debugging, and data analysis for circuit components.
  • Supervise layout, bench evaluation, correlation, and characterization during AMS IC development.

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.
