Role Number:200586834
Come join Apple’s growing wireless silicon development effort, with its 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 coordinated engineering team spanning Systems/PHY/MAC architecture and design, digital RTL design and integration, RF/Analog architecture and design, Emulation, Design Verification, Test and Validation, and FW/SW engineering.

Description

- You will prepare microarchitecture and RTL for digital logic of the wireless MAC based on a set of functional requirements - You will participate in HW/SW partitioning discussions with the SW and FW engineering teams - You will work with physical design, DFT, Power, and CAD teams to complete and deliver completed MAC IP for SoC integration. - You will support verification/prototyping/emulation teams during pre-silicon verification, prototyping, and SW/FW development. - You will support post-silicon validation, system integration, and debug efforts and attend to any required silicon design revisions.

Minimum Qualifications

  • BS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field, and 3+ years of relevant industry experience.

Key Qualifications

Preferred Qualifications

  • Very strong digital logic design fundamentals
