Join Apple's wireless silicon development team, focusing on energy-efficient design and innovative technologies that enhance user experience. The role involves delivering an RF integration end-to-end solution and facilitating the transition from design development to mass production. You will work closely with a vertically integrated engineering team across various domains, including RF/Analog architecture and design. This position offers the opportunity to deepen your technical expertise in both hardware and software related to wireless transceiver architecture and RF systems.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant field and a minimum of 10 years of industry experience.
  • Solid experience in RF parametric testing, including IP3, NF, ACPR, and phase noise.
  • Strong knowledge of RF test equipment such as network analyzers and spectrum analyzers.
  • Familiarity with RF systems fundamentals and RF transceiver architectures.
  • Proficiency in understanding RFIC block-level design schematics.
  • Some experience in RF PCB board design, debug, and development.
  • Python programming language skills are highly desired.
  • Experience with embedded systems and C programming language.
  • Experience in automation framework development.

Responsibilities

  • Deliver an RF integration end-to-end solution, including DUT control development and pre-silicon emulation.
  • Enable different phases from design development to mass production of Apple products.
  • Conduct Wireless SoC-RF bring-up and validate final silicon results.
  • Ensure compliance with industry standards during the validation process.
  • Develop technical depth in hardware and software domains related to wireless technology.

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.
