Display Mechanical Engineer — Shape Next-Gen Screens

Apple, Inc.; San Diego (CA); On-site; USD 123,000 - 214,000; Full time

Job summary

Apple is seeking an experienced Mechanical Engineer for its Display Technologies group in California to design and develop innovative display modules for future products. You will own the integration of mechanical design with optical and electrical interfaces, delivering robust displays for consumer electronics.

The role requires cross-functional teamwork, validation planning, prototype and production support, and international travel (~15%), primarily to Asia, with opportunities to influence

Qualifications

• BS in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent with a minimum of 3 years of experience.
• Expertise in mechanical engineering fundamentals including properties of materials, solid mechanics, beam statics, Newtonian physics, and thermodynamics.
• Experience leading mechanical design & validation.
• 3D/2D software experience: 3D modeling (Pro/E, NX, CATIA, or Solidworks).
• Experience with diverse manufacturing techniques and materials.
• Failure analysis experience.

Responsibilities

• You will define the module mechanical architecture based on optical, electrical, mechanical, and other cross-functional requirements. Then, you will work with the system team to define the interface to the product including fit, assembly features, and tolerance analyses and deliver any needed specifications including 3D/2D. You will support the product through the engineering development, mass-production ramp-up, and launch.
• The right engineer will achieve system goals through mechanical design optimization, prototyping, new material qualification, and manufacturing processes. Factory audits to review the manufacturing and assembly at each step will be vital to ensure high yield and high quality. This role will also define & implement validation plans for ME characteristics of the display modules using scientific & analytical approaches, drive detailed failure analyses for any issues to reach robust corrective actions, ensure the specifications are met throughout the supply chain, and communicate validation results to peers and leadership.
• This role also requires international travel (~15%, primarily Asia)
