At Apple, we work every single day to craft products that enrich people's lives. We are looking for a forward-thinking and unusually hardworking Wireless System Engineer to join our team. In this highly technical role, you will be responsible for system integration and characterization of state-of-the-art wireless SoC products. You will own the development of the test infrastructure at the center of a silicon design group from conception to production. This position offers a rare and extraordinary opportunity to craft upcoming products that will delight and encourage millions of Apple's customers every single day. Your primary responsibilities will include designing and implementing algorithms for calibration, pre-equalization, cancellation, and/or pre-distortion techniques to achieve optimal and robust performance across a large number of parts, systems, and wireless channels. You will implement golden calibration algorithms for wireless transceivers in automation infrastructure and validate and characterize algorithms on real silicon alongside PHY, MAC, RFIC, and digital circuit designers. Additionally, you will bring up and take to production state-of-the-art physical layer wireless communication system algorithms for very high data rate applications. You will also be tasked with designing and implementing the bring-up infrastructure, including chip drivers, debug tools, and automation environments. Developing and implementing test plans, collecting and analyzing test results, identifying, root-cause, and debugging issues will be key components of your role. You will champion automation through the bring-up, tuning, characterization, and other phases of post-silicon chip development.
