Watch Touch Hardware, Mechanical Engineer

You will work on the mechanical design, integration and validation of the next generation of Apple Watch touch sensors. You would work and learn alongside a talented group from many engineering fields including electrical engineering, thin-films, quality, process, reliability, and more. As your expertise grows within the role, you will inform hardware design that will shape and create new customer experiences. As one of the mechanical experts of touch technology, you will be responsible your piece of the project: - Identifying/brainstorming design solutions, grading risk, and informing final design. - Leading a cross-functional team through failure analysis to identify root-cause and inform corrective actions. - Coordinating and managing the path-to-closure on complex, multi-faceted issues. - Applying rigorous and thoughtful experimental design to reduce design risk/uncertainty as quickly as possible. - Running tolerance studies to ensure designs are feasible over manufacturing tolerances. - Communicating to Apple’s engineering leadership in concise, comprehensive technical depth. In the prototyping and validation phases, you will support external manufacturing vendors with process development and root cause analysis for issues found during testing. Support for our vendors includes international travel between 15% and 25%. At the end of the extraordinary team effort, your work will be in the hands of millions of people making a visible difference in their daily lives.
