Jobbeschreibung

Summary

Apple's Hardware Program Management organization is looking for a Program Manager to lead PMIC silicon validation hardware programs end-to-end—from initial board design through factory builds, field deployment, and ongoing support for our validation engineers. This is an individual contributor role on a high-caliber Senior Program Management team whose mission is to deliver power management silicon on schedule. You will be embedded in the heartbeat of Apple's chip development process, driving the validation hardware programs that enable our advanced PMICs to go from first bring-up to production release. In this role, you will coordinate all aspects of hardware development, including requirements definition, design, implementation, and resolving complex technical issues. To be successful, you will need a strong technical background in board design, HW/SW integration, and ideally, project management experience in system board design or FPGA development. A proven track record in a dynamic engineering environment, along with exceptional multitasking and real-time crisis management skills, are essential for this position.
