About the Team
At Apple, we work every single day to craft products that enrich people's lives. Our RF Systems Engineering team is dedicated to solving complex challenges that no one has solved yet. As a member of this dynamic group, you will have the unique and rewarding opportunity to shape upcoming products that will delight and inspire millions of Apple's customers every day.
About the Role
We are looking for a passionate, self-motivated individual to work on the overall system performance of multi-radio coexistence for various wireless technologies, including Cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and NFC. You will be responsible for assessing multi-radio coexistence performance across Apple's wireless ecosystem. This role involves hands-on hardware engineering, cross-functional collaboration, and data-driven validation to ensure seamless coexistence across a diverse range of radio technologies.
You will work closely with RF Test Engineers, chipset teams, and cross-functional partners to identify, debug, and resolve coexistence challenges from early design stages through final release. Your day-to-day will involve performing hardware failure analysis at the RF/wireless system level, proposing design and process changes to address issues, and reviewing PCB and flex layouts. You will also execute validation test plans, track status, and partner with teams on circuit-level and system-level simulations to drive root cause analysis.
