Apple is where individual imaginations gather together, committing to the values that lead to great work. Every new product we build, service we create, or Apple Store experience we deliver is the result of us making each other’s ideas stronger. That happens because every one of us shares a belief that we can make something wonderful and share it with the world, changing lives for the better. It’s the diversity of our people and their thinking that inspires the innovation that runs through everything we do. When we bring everybody in, we can do the best work of our lives. Here, you’ll do more than join something — you’ll add something.

We are seeking a skilled Thermal Engineer to lead the design, development, and validation of thermal solutions for silicon validation systems. This role will also provide thermal-design support to other engineering teams at Apple.

Thermal engineer will lead the end-to-end thermal solutions for Silicon validation, with responsibilities including:
– Defining thermal requirements and creating technical specifications
– Working with multi-functional teams to ensure successful system integration
– Lead external partners and projects to ensure interoperability of internal and external components and timely project completion
– Performing thermal analysis to identify effective cooling solutions
– Design validation and characterization from prototype bring-up to product testing
– Conducting thermal testing, process temperature, and power data to assess and validate cooling solutions
– Participating in the investigation of new technologies and proof-of-concept experiments
– Driving failure analysis and design of experiments (DOEs) to implement corrective actions and design improvements.
