Module System Engineer

Apple is a place where extraordinary people gather to do their best work. Our community is made up of every kind of individual: artists and designers, engineers and scientists, thinkers and doers. Together we create things and experiences people once couldn't have imagined - and now can't imagine living without. So if you're excited by the idea of making a real impact, a career with Apple might be your dream job. Just be ready to dream big. Were looking for a Module System Engineer to design and deploy the test instruments that validate our camera and battery modules, from prototype through high-volume manufacturing. Youll build test fixtures, automated test sequences, and data acquisition systems; commission them at our factories; and use them to drive root-cause analysis when modules fail. Your work will directly shape the quality and reliability of modules used in consumer electronics, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, and wearable devices.

This is a generalist role. Prior camera or battery experience is a plus but not required - youll build module domain knowledge on the job. What we need is strong fundamentals in test system design, electrical measurement, and problem-solving in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.Design and develop test instruments for camera and battery module validation, including electrical test fixtures, measurement systems, and automated data acquisition platforms Create test sequences, measurement algorithms, and software interfaces that deliver accurate, repeatable module characterization Define factory-level test strategies, including test specifications, acceptance criteria, and standardized procedures for global manufacturing sites Deploy, commission, and optimize test equipment at production facilities, including calibration, correlation studies, and gauge R&R validation Respond rapidly to line-down situations involving test equipment failures or measurement issues, through remote diagnostics and on-site support Lead Failure Analysis and Corrective Action (FACA) investigations by developing diagnostic tools and test methodologies to identify root causes of module failures Analyze test data trends and failure signatures to improve detection capability and prevent escapes through better test coverage Work with manufacturing engineering, quality, product validation, and suppliers to improve test coverage, increase yield, and reduce cycle time Partner with camera and battery module engineers, battery management system (BMS) teams, and software developers to translate module specifications into test requirements and validation strategies Participate in design reviews to ensure modules are testable and validation coverage is adequate throughout the product lifecycle Willingness to travel 10-20% for factory support, vendor engagement, and station deployment Availability to support line-down issues in production, which may require work outside standard hours or across time zonesBachelors degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, or a related field with experience in electrical design Experience in test equipment hardware design or hardware validation engineering for PCBs, flex circuits, or System-in-Package (SiP)Masters degree in a relevant engineering field with 3+ years of hands-on experience in electrical design, development, and factory testing for consumer electronics Experience with camera and/or battery module testing Experience supporting factory builds, contributing to or leading FACA, and managing line-down issues in fast-paced production environments Working knowledge of industry interfaces and test standards (e.g. MIPI, I2C, USB, SPMI, ACI) Familiarity with factory test equipment, end-to-end validation methods, and data interpretation for quality control Programming or scripting proficiency (e.g. Python, Lua, MATLAB, LabVIEW, C++) for test automation, data processing, or analysis Experience with statistical analysis methods (SPC, DOE, Six Sigma) Demonstrated ability to learn new technical domains quickly
