Computer and Electronic Product Manufacturing

The Hardware Systems Engineer will be responsible for designing and developing sophisticated Mac desktops and other hardware products. This role involves working collaboratively with multi-functional teams to integrate electrical engineering principles into product design, ensuring high performance and reliability for millions of users worldwide.

  • Component data-sheet analysis and selection for schematic capture
  • Coordinate layout of highly constrained multilayer PCBs including HDI and fine pitch BGAs
  • Forecast and plan design time to meet constrained schedules
  • Drive design tradeoffs across manufacturing, test, thermal, performance, reliability, and electrical stakeholders
  • Prototype bring-up, debug, functional verification, and electrical characterization
  • Use advanced lab tools such as 25 GHz oscilloscopes, network analyzers, and BERT scopes to judge the quality and robustness of electrical designs
  • Analyze factory-scale data to adjust signal parameters for maximum margin
  • Debug problems found in manufacturing, feedback root cause and corrective action into design or manufacturing process in preparation for high volume
  • Communicate and present status on concurrent top issues and deadlines
  • Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical / Computer Engineering or equivalent
  • Experience with schematic, PCB physical design using Cadence Concept and Allegro or similar CAD tools
  • Lab skills: oscilloscopes, logic and protocol analyzers, electronic loads, etc
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • High-volume consumer electronics system experience preferred
  • Experience leading technically complex projects that are dynamic and business critical
  • Design experience in digital logic, simulation, power conversion and delivery
  • Familiarity with RF/wireless concepts and command line interface and scripting skills
  • Experience with high-speed serial and memory interfaces including signal integrity design and measurement fundamentals
  • Specific expertise in several of the following areas is a plus: CPU or GPU microarchitecture, batteries, power management, analog design, audio, wireless, DisplayPort, PCIe, Thunderbolt, USB, SPI, I2C, UART, analog sensors, interconnect
  • Knowledge of clocking technology: crystals, oscillators, and simple PLLs, discrete passive components (resistors, capacitors, inductors) and their characteristics and specifications.
