About The Position

Apple is where individual imaginations gather together, committing to the values that lead to great work. Every new product we build, service we create, or Apple Store experience we deliver is the result of us making each other’s ideas stronger. That happens because every one of us shares a belief that we can make something wonderful and share it with the world, changing lives for the better. It’s the diversity of our people and their thinking that inspires the innovation that runs through everything we do. When we bring everybody in, we can do the best work of our lives. Here, you’ll do more than join something — you’ll add something. We are looking for an individual with genuine passion for innovation and product development, with experience from inception through delivery to customers. You will work very closely with the architecture, human experience, firmware and software, and electrical and mechanical engineering teams to define and create sensing experiences for a number of future products. DESCRIPTION During the concept design of a product, the candidate will be responsible for driving and creating requirements, identifying the best HW solutions available, and designing the SW algorithms. In this role, you will work on signal processing, machine learning, and data fusion techniques to enhance the capabilities of our sensing technologies. The individual will also be responsible for the overall sensor integration and tuning in the product and ensuring the highest quality execution. Proven capability to deploy models to resource-constrained embedded systems, ensuring that the product meets the desired experience requirements and performance metrics.

Requirements

M.S. in EE, CE, CS, or equivalent experience or skills
Algorithm design for classification, noise modeling/filtering, signal processing, statistical analysis, and machine learning
Experience with data analysis, visualization of complex data in Python and/or MATLAB, and presenting resulting conclusions
Implementation into embedded or resource-constrained systems in C/C++ in production environments
Able to learn how to quantify and test new sensing technologies such as IMU, capacitive, environmental, light, motion, radar, optical, acoustic, and evaluate user impact and performance
Availability to travel domestically and internationally for development and on-site manufacturing support is also expected.

Nice To Haves

Good team player with great communication and leadership skills and ability to lead high-level discussions on technology strategy and approach
Prior experience with end-to-end development, taking a feature from concept to ship
Proven technical leadership skills with the ability to generate and deliver creative problem solutions
Experience leading multi-disciplinary teams/projects and driving projects of varying sizes and scopes
Availability to travel domestically and internationally for development and on-site manufacturing support is also expected.
