Description

The Health Technologies team conceives and proves out exciting new technology for Apple's future products and features. In this role you can be involved in the end-to-end new product development cycle, from proot of concept HW development to factory production - ultimately working to invent, produce, and improve HW technologies that seek to improve human quality of life. DESCRIPTION In this role, you will be part of a prototyping and development team working with other teams and experts towards developing exciting new health products and features. As a sensors electrical engineer, your responsibilities will include: defining sensor architectures and specifications to meet feature requirements; design and build prototype circuits; design and build test and characterization setups; help enable user studies and data collection; analyze lab, study, and factory data. The role will also require heavy collaboration across many disciplines which is critical to the success of health features. MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS An understanding of analog frontend circuits including ability to analyze signals and noise for circuits such as amplifiers, filters, and analog to digital converters. Ability to work on embedded systems. This includes working with designs using microcontrollers, and common communication protocols such as 12C and SPI. It also includes experience developing firmware (Cor C++) to enable sensor data collection or streaming An understanding of statistics and an ability to analyze engineering data. This includes topics o tatistical distributions, repeatability, reproducibility, confidence intervals, etc. Experience in schematic capture and PCB layout techniques, including noise optimization, component selection, thermal control, etc. Ability to bring up, test and characterize sensor systems. This includes debugging firmware, circuit boards (analog and digital signals), and writing scripts. Scripts enable interfacing with prototype hardware and the automation of lab setups (e.g. Python or Matlab) 5 years of experience in electrical engineering. This can include time spent on graduate degrees PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS An understanding of sensor physics from the perspective of a main sensing mechanism and as a source of error. This includes common effects such as thermal, strain, optical, etc. An understanding of power integrity and power-distribution networks to enable very low noise design of sensor systems. Should thrive in fast-paced environment, be highly organized, and be able to multitask. Excellent communication, and interpersonal skills. Demonstrated ability to work as a key member of a team. Strong analytical, and problem-solving skills. Detail oriented. Able and willing to travel in the future to product manufacturing facilities both domestic and international to provide technical support as needed. Previous experience working on health related projects is a plus.
