The Analog ASIC Architect role on Apple's Touch Technology team involves owning the architecture of complex mixed-signal ASICs from concept to silicon. This team is responsible for creating high-complexity chips that enhance the multi-touch experience across various Apple products. The position requires a blend of technical expertise and collaboration across multiple teams, focusing on defining analog front-end architecture and system-level performance targets. The architect will drive architectural decisions based on a deep understanding of silicon development constraints.

• A minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience in analog and mixed-signal ASIC architecture.
• Proven track record of defining and taping out high-volume, complex mixed-signal ICs from architecture through production.
• Strong foundation in system-level design, IC micro-architecture definition, and requirements development for mixed-signal ASICs.
• Experience with IC bring-up, silicon characterization, and debug at the system level.
• Proficiency in MATLAB, Python, or equivalent high-level modeling and simulation tools.
• MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering.

• Own the architecture of complex mixed-signal ASICs from concept through silicon.
• Translate high-level system requirements into rigorous, realizable designs.
• Define the analog front-end architecture, signal processing pipeline, and system-level performance targets.
• Drive architectural decisions with clarity and conviction.
• Collaborate across circuit design, digital architecture, software, and product teams.

• 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.
