Opaque Touch Hardware - Sensing Design u0026 Integration Engineer

Come join the Sensor Technology Team! We develop groundbreaking sensors that are central to a variety of Apple platforms, like Mac, Audio, Accessories, and more. As part of the team, you will play a key role in specifying, developing, characterizing, and validating sensor systems used in these platforms-from proof-of-concept all the way through end-product launch. Our primary goal is to enable the world's best user experience.

New challenges arise every day that require the sharp analytical skills of talented individuals. To be successful, you must be able to thrive in a dynamic, agile, multi-disciplinary, and hands-on environment that values engineering excellence, creativity, and innovation.

In this role, you will specify, build, and validate capacitive sensors in new product applications, working cross-functionally with test, firmware, system engineering, and product operations teams. You will leverage your familiarity with product integration and manufacturing technologies to successfully implement sensors into high-volume consumer products. The ideal candidate will also bring direct experience with technologies such as capacitive touch sensors.

Experience in the architecture, design, characterization, and validation of sensing systems, including theory of operation, signal processing, and design trade-offs.

Experience with manufacturing technologies relevant to sensor fabrication is a plus. Proficiency in simulation and modeling tools (MATLAB, SPICE), scripting languages (Python), and statistical analysis software (JMP). Cross-functional experience in a high-volume production environment, including a background in automation for test and characterization. Excellent critical thinking, data analysis, and logic/reasoning skills. Excellent written and verbal communication, teamwork, and leadership skills.

BS and a minimum of 10 years relevant industry experience Strong foundation in math, physics, and electrical engineering. Strong background in board-level analog and mixed-signal circuits and/or embedded systems, with hands-on experience in module-level design. Ability to independently drive technical issues to resolution and coordinate efforts across teams.
