Imagine what you could do here. At Apple, new ideas have a way of becoming extraordinary products that delight millions. The silicon engineering team is at the heart of this innovation, and we are looking for a passionate System Validation Engineer to help us shape the next generation of the world’s most advanced devices. As a key member of our team, you will validate the leading-edge custom silicon that delivers the groundbreaking performance and immersive user experience. This is a unique opportunity to influence the entire silicon journey—from innovative prototyping and hands-on validation to seamless product integration and large-scale manufacturing. If you are driven by engineering excellence and want your work to be part of the revolutionary products people love, we invite you to come and join us.

  • Develop and execute comprehensive tests to verify the functional integrity of our design on both FPGA prototyping platforms and final ASICs across a full range of PVT conditions.
  • Lead hands-on debugging of system-level failures in the lab.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional partners in silicon design, board design, software, and manufacturing.
  • Measure and optimize silicon performance to ensure products deliver a consistent and compelling user experience.
  • Bachelor’s Degree and a minimum of 3 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Proven experience in silicon validation, including test planning, test script development, failure analysis, and system-level debug.
  • Solid understanding of computer architecture, system-on-chip (SoC) design, and system-level use cases.
  • Experience developing test scripts and automation infrastructure using languages such as Python, Perl, or TCL.
  • Experience working with RTL (Verilog or SystemVerilog).
  • Experience validating designs with embedded processors and peripherals (e.g., SPI, I2C, UART).
  • Hands-on experience with standard lab equipment, such as oscilloscopes and logic analyzers.
  • Experience with FPGA-based prototyping and system validation.
  • Experience in embedded firmware development and debug.
  • Familiarity with high-speed interface protocols such as DisplayPort, HDMI, MIPI, or PCIe.
  • Experience in silicon power measurement and characterization, with knowledge of power optimization techniques.
  • Proficiency in interpreting board schematics, with hands-on experience in validation platform development.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Experience applying AI coding assistants to accelerate development tasks like code generation, analysis, and debugging.
