Descripción de la vacante

Apple, Inc. in Cupertino, California, is seeking a technical leader to set the electrical engineering direction for an AirPods program.

You will anchor architecture decisions, elevate hardware design and validation, and guide a team to make rigorous, high-quality calls from concept to mass production. You will mentor EEs, drive cross-functional trade-offs across silicon, RF, power, audio, and manufacturing, and own top issues with leadership and executives.

Formación

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent directly-related work experience.
• 8+ years of relevant industry experience designing electronic and/or embedded systems.
• Deep electrical engineering fundamentals across analog, digital, power, and signal integrity, with a track record of leading complex system decisions to closure.
• Experience in shipping at least one high-volume consumer product end-to-end, from architecture through mass production, including working with contract manufacturers.
• Demonstrated hands‑on lab and debug experience across the full product lifecycle.

Responsabilidades

• Lead the electrical architecture of an AirPods program — anchoring partitioning, power, wireless, and silicon integration decisions from concept through mass production.
• Raise the technical bar through rigorous design and validation reviews, high personal standards, and by codifying best practices the team can reuse.
• Mentor and technically guide a team of EEs — unblock hard problems, grow depth across the group, and hold the design-review bar.
• Own the challenging technical calls end-to-end — drive cross-functional trade-offs across silicon, RF, power, audio, sensor, mechanical, software, and manufacturing to a durable outcome.
• Lead top-issue and failure-analysis reviews; drive root cause across silicon, RF, power, and mechanical domains, land fixes that hold up in high-volume production, and introduce processes and tools that outlive any single product.
• Drive the technical rhythm of the program — top issues, risk tracking, and weekly status and escalation to engineering leadership and executives.
• Represent the electrical system to silicon partners and contract manufacturers; build alignment on strategy, escalations, and hard calls.
• Travel occasionally including internationally — to support builds and manufacturing activities.
