About the Job

Requirements

  • Currently pursuing a PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, or a related field.
  • At the end of the internship, return to school to continue education, or have the internship be the last requirement for graduation.

Responsibilities

  • Support electrical and system design and integration for Apple Vision Pro, iPhone, iPad, Watch, and Mac computers.
  • Assist with engineering processes for designing, integrating, implementing, testing, and qualifying electrical subsystems.
  • For camera, touch, and display engineering, work on optics, flat panel hardware, and touch mechanical design; design and implement experiments validating optical and mechanical materials; optimize performance and reliability.
  • For wireless technologies, perform antenna design, radio-frequency system-level validation, automated software and tool development, optimization of automated radio-frequency systems, and radio-frequency systems analysis.
  • For ASIC/VLSI, perform RTL design and implementation, verification, integration, validation, emulation, power, technology and circuits work, computer-aided design, static timing analysis, physical design, low-power design, signal integrity, analog/mixed-signal work, LDV/HDV, and design-for-test work.
  • For system development, perform electrical system design and integration, support system-level testing, capture schematics, and resolve bugs.
  • For audio, acoustics, and optical work, design hardware including speakers and microphones; perform mechanical design and prototyping, system integration, noise and vibration work, audio feature design using software and machine learning, hearing health work, psychoacoustics, and user studies.
  • For embedded systems, develop low-level microcontroller code, prototype concepts, perform FPGA design verification, and streamline electrical design.
  • For firmware development, write and debug low-level firmware, drivers, protocols, and other firmware code, and develop embedded firmware solutions.

Desired Qualifications

  • Knowledge of computer system architecture, digital logic design and verification, digital and analog circuit analysis, and analog integrated circuits.
  • Experience with chip design and microarchitecture of on-chip interconnection networks.
  • Knowledge of antenna, cellular, wireless, over-the-air, radio-frequency engineering, high-speed signals, wireless communication theory, and radio-frequency circuit design.
  • Knowledge of CPU and GPU architecture.
  • Proficiency in one or more of C, C++, Python, Perl, SQL, Assembly, Mac OS X, PH, Objective-C, VHDL, Verilog RTL, and digital logic design.
  • Experience using measurement equipment such as spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
  • Experience interpreting schematics, physical design, and debugging circuits using FPGA or PCBs.
  • Prior internship experience, relevant individual or group project experience, teaching assistant experience, and/or relevant work experience.
