Cellular Power Verification Engineer
Would you like to join Apple’s growing Cellular Silicon Development team? Our Wireless Technologies and Ecosystem's organization is responsible for all aspects of wireless SW development with a particular emphasis on highly energy efficient design and new technologies that transform the user experience at the product level, all of which is driven by a world-class vertically integrated engineering. As a Cellular Power Verification Engineer, you will be a key member of our highly innovative Cellular team, developing Cellular technology and SoC for novel ultra-low-power cellular modems.
You will be responsible for helping define the software architecture/design for frameworks that automate power, performance, thermal testing and measurement and implement them. This individual is also responsible for defining SoC cellular testcases for 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G RAT technologies in cross-functional team setting with system, firmware and other relevant cellular software teams. Further develop, implement and test them. You will also design methodologies and tools to correlation the measured system metrics like voltage, power, frequencies, timelines to those PORed (Plan of Record) for the respective projects. You will provide a weekly comprehensive summary on the power and performance KPI (Key Performance Indicators) dashboard for Apple cellular platforms to executives and relevant stakeholders. Furthermore, communicate clearly the information and concerns with regards to functional, power, performance regressions for the cellular sub-system and project roadblocks that may potentially affect the projects. And also participate in cross-functional SW design architecture reviews with various wireless technology teams and collaborate with all the relevant vertical development teams in embedded wireless organization on system verification and KPI test plans. Lastly, you will collaborate with internal hardware and system software teams in the early stages of the development cycle to define the product KPI metrices using the data and knowledge from previous projects, to ensure high quality wireless user experience in the Apple wireless products.
