Job description

You will own the end-to-end design, development and validation of sensing technology into Apple’s portfolio of products. You will work with a talented multifunctional team to generate design concepts, and as the mechanical expert you will be responsible for engineering analysis and documentation for your piece of the project: - Identifying design tradeoffs and risks to choose viable paths forward. - Applying good experiment design and the scientific method to reduce design risk early. - Running tolerance studies to ensure designs are feasible over manufacturing tolerances. - Driving processes to meet Apple’s high cosmetic standards. Experience with high volume mass production or consumer electronics are a plus. In the prototyping and validation phases, you will support external manufacturing vendors with process development and root cause analysis for issues found during testing. Support for our vendors includes international travel between 10% and 20%. At the end of the extraordinary team effort, your work will be in the hands of millions of people making a visible difference in their daily lives Solid understanding of mechanical engineering fundamentals including properties of materials, solid mechanics, beam statics, Newtonian physics, and thermodynamics. 3D CAD experience is required. Excellent written and verbal communication skills and ability to craft clear engineering documentation. Able to effectively collaborate with diverse team members and external vendors to achieve project goals. Minimum requirement of a bachelors degree High volume, consumer electronics or sensing experience is a plus. Siemens NX CAD fluency High volume / mass production development experience FEA modeling experience with any major CAD software system Hands on experience with 3D Printers, CNC Mills, Lathes and / or other hand fabrication methods Experience in the areas of: GD&T, Tolerance Analysis, Statistical Analysis and Design of Experiments BS and a minimum of 3 years relevant industry experience.
