Austin, Texas
Summary
We live in a mobile and device driven world where knowledge of the physical world around us is needed. We rely on this knowledge to get around, to learn about our environment and to enable spectacular new features for custom applications. Apple is meeting those needs as robustly and as creatively as possible and is interested in people who want to help meet that commitment. The success we are striving will be the result of very skilled people working in an environment which cultivates creativity, partnership, and thinking of old problems in new ways. If that sounds like the kind of environment that you find intriguing, then let's talk. These elements come together to make Apple an amazing environment for motivated people to do the greatest work of their lives. You will become part of a team that sets the standard in fostering excellence, creativity and innovation. Will you help us design the next generation of revolutionary Apple products? The Sensing Product Design team is looking for a talented mechanical engineer to develop great experiences and bring Apple products to life. We are the team developing many of the sensors that changed the way people interact with their technology. Touch ID redefined the phone and tablet, Touch ID seamlessly secured them, and the heart rate monitor let you keep tabs on yourself.
Key Qualifications
At least 3+ years of hands-on experience designing for a production environment. High volume, consumer electronics or sensing experience is a plus.
Solid understanding of mechanical engineering fundamentals including properties of materials, solid mechanics, beam statics, Newtonian physics, and thermodynamics.
3D CAD experience is required.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Able to craft clear engineering documentation.
Able to effectively collaborate with diverse team members and external vendors to achieve project goals.
Description
You will own the end-to-end design, development and validation of sensing technology into Apple's portfolio of products. You will work with a talented multifunctional team to generate design concepts, and as the mechanical expert you will be responsible for engineering analysis and documentation for your piece of the project:
- Identifying design tradeoffs and risks to choose viable paths forward.
- Applying good experiment design and the scientific method to reduce design risk early.
- Running tolerance studies to ensure designs are feasible over manufacturing tolerances.
- Driving processes to meet Apple's high cosmetic standards. In the prototyping and validation phases, you will support external manufacturing vendors with process development and root cause analysis for issues found during testing. Support for our vendors includes international travel between 15% and 25% post-pandemic. At the end of the extraordinary team effort, your work will be in the hands of millions of people making a visible difference in their daily lives.
