Job Description
The Sensing Architecture team develops cutting-edge sensor solutions and technologies that are central to Apple's products, including the iPhone, iPad, MacBooks, and more. The key goal of the Sensing Architecture team is to enable the world's best user experience through seamless device interactions. New challenges arise every day that require the sharp problem-solving skills of talented individuals. The team features a collaborative and hands-on environment that fosters engineering excellence, creativity, and innovation.
DescriptionYou will be responsible for developing advanced sensing algorithms for future Apple products. This will involve algorithm prototyping, algorithm performance bounding and validation, and assessing sensor hardware and performance requirements. You will be designing new sensing algorithm architectures using a variety of techniques such as analytical modeling, ML methods, statistical signals processing, and classical algorithms/optimization methods to characterize and validate system performance. Development and negotiation of cross-functional requirements to ensure subsystem performance will be a key part of the role, and as such you will collaborate closely with Electrical Engineering and Firmware teams to create state-of-the-art sensor solutions.
Apple employees also have the opportunity to become an Apple shareholder through participation in Apple's discretionary employee stock programs. Apple employees are eligible for discretionary restricted stock unit awards, and can purchase Apple stock at a discount if voluntarily participating in Apple's Employee Stock Purchase Plan. You'll also receive benefits including: Comprehensive medical and dental coverage, retirement benefits, a range of discounted products and free services, and for formal education related to advancing your career at Apple, reimbursement for certain educational expenses - including tuition. Additionally, this role might be eligible for discretionary bonuses or commission payments as well as relocation. Learn more about
