FPGA Design Engineer - Instrument Engineering

This small team of engineers designs and productizes Software-Defined Radios and precision RF and Analog Test Equipment for testing, calibrating, and researching cellular, 5G, Satellite communications, WiFi, BT, mmWave, UWB, and NFC radios in millions of iPhones, iPads, Macs, and Watches. All members of the team bring their own unique expertise to collectively take internal Apple products from concept to mass production.

Each internal product is designed to Apple's exacting standards, which maintain the quality, accuracy, and functionality of commercially available offerings.

As an FPGA Engineer, you will work on the next-generation wireless communication products. Our products are built on platforms that heavily leverage complex, high-speed, real-time logic running on industry-leading FPGAs. You will work with other cross-functional team members, such as RF system engineers, software engineers, DSP engineers, hardware engineers, and Embedded Firmware engineers, to design and develop embedded systems that are instrumental in creating products loved all over the globe.
