Day to day tasks involve electrical design (both schematic capture and PCB layout), simulation, bringup, debug, and validation for Macs. You will be involved in designing the electronics that go inside Apple MacBook Pro laptops. EEs are responsible for both schematic capture and coordinating layout of highly constrained multilayer PCBs, including HDI and fine pitch BGAs. Overcome complex design challenges requiring Signal Integrity and Power Integrity optimization required by Apple Silicons, as well as achieving the best electrical system design for Performance and Thermal. Routine responsibilities also include bring-up, validation, factory build support, and multi-disciplinary cross-functional collaboration and negotiation. We are looking for well-rounded candidates with a broad set of skill and interests, and the curiosity to dig deep wherever necessary to solve challenging problems. Opportunities exist to sample a variety of technology areas, and to remain general or specialize over time to develop subject matter expertise.
