Job description
Apple's R&D group is looking for a Mechatronics Controls Engineer to develop and validate advanced electro-mechanical-sensor driven systems. The engineer will focus on creating custom sensor calibration, signal processing, and control algorithms for various product concepts. This role requires collaboration with mechanical, electrical, and AIML teams to deliver comprehensive mechatronics solutions. The ideal candidate will be hands-on and innovative, pushing the limits of performance on cutting-edge hardware.
Requirements
- MS in Engineering, Robotics, or Computer Science.
- 8+ years of related experience in control systems development and implementation.
- Deep understanding of kinematics, dynamics, and equations of motion for dynamic systems.
- Experience in hardware/software integration and physical system debugging.
- Proficient in C/C++ and Python or MATLAB.
- Experience with modern software development workflows and version control tools like Git.
- PhD in Engineering, Robotics, or Computer Science is preferred.
- Strong knowledge in classical and modern control theory, robotics, and digital signal processing.
- Experience with rotary sensing, inertial measurement systems, and inertial state propagation.
Responsibilities
- Develop, prototype, and validate complex electro-mechanical-sensor driven systems.
- Create custom sensor calibration, signal processing, estimation, and control algorithms.
- Engage in real-world modeling, simulation, and testing of algorithms.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop end-to-end mechatronics experiences.
- Implement and test algorithms in embedded systems.
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.
