Overview
Apple is hiring a Cellular IP Design Engineer to develop customized hardware IPs for digital signal processing. You'll work closely with cross-functional teams to integrate IPs into SoCs. This role requires experience in ASIC or FPGA designs and knowledge of signal processing principles.
Job Description
Who you are
You have experience crafting low-power customized hardware for digital signal processing — your understanding of signal processing principles allows you to create efficient designs that meet performance goals. You possess abstract modeling skills for synthesis and simulation using modern modeling languages like Verilog and System Verilog. Your hands-on experience spans multiple sophisticated ASIC or FPGA designs, guiding projects from concept to productization. You are well-versed in digital logic design and quality assurance, ensuring that your designs meet the highest standards.
Desirable
You have a collaborative mindset and enjoy working closely with SoC architects, system engineers, and design verification teams. Your ability to communicate effectively with specialists in STA, DFT, power optimization, and physical design enhances your contributions to the team. You thrive in a multidisciplinary environment, where your technical expertise can drive innovation and efficiency.
What you'll do
In this role, you will be a key part of the Cellular SoC IP team in Munich, responsible for developing highly customized hardware IPs for digital signal processing. You will integrate these IPs into SoCs, ensuring they meet Apple's power, performance, and area goals. Your responsibilities will include defining and driving the implementation of IP sub-components for a cellular transceiver System on a Chip. You will work closely with a multi-disciplinary group, collaborating with system, digital, analog, and firmware design teams to support your daily work.
You will take on end-to-end responsibility across the project lifecycle for the IPs developed, from concept to design, verification, integration, silicon validation, and finally, in-field operation. Your role will require you to drive timing closure and power optimizations, ensuring that the final products meet Apple's high standards. You will also engage in design verification processes, working with teams to validate the functionality and performance of the IPs you develop.
What we offer
At Apple, you will be part of a dynamic team that values diversity and inclusion. You will have the opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology that impacts millions of users worldwide. The collaborative environment encourages innovation and professional growth, allowing you to expand your skills and advance your career.
