We are seeking a Multi-Disciplinary Engineer, such as Mechatronics, electromechanical, or physics, with a strong background in mechanical and electromagnetic design to develop future generations of haptic technology and actuators. Are you ready to help us deliver the next groundbreaking Apple products?

The Haptic Engineering team is a highly multi-disciplinary team developing innovative haptic solutions that are central to Apple’s products, such as the iPhone, Apple Watch, and Apple Pencil! Our goal is to enable the world’s best user-experience and explore the possibilities using haptics. We work in a hands-on environment and value technical excellence and passion for innovation. New challenges arise every single day that require the sharp analytical skills of versatile and forward-thinking individuals.

You will work on development of haptic actuator architecture including concept generation, detailed design, modeling, design for manufacturing, and engineering build and validation. You will be expected to:

Generate concepts and solutions to multi-disciplinary haptic related challenges
Perform mechanical, magnetic, and electro-mechanical modeling to evaluate and optimize concepts and designs
Prototype, evaluate, and debug innovative ideas
Design and define mechanical components and assembly schemes
Define detailed specifications and engineering requirements
Participate in the development of new manufacturing and assembly processes with external vendors (including 
periodic international travel)
• Validate and characterize designs through multiple iterations
Conduct failure analysis and design of experiments (DOEs) to resolve root cause and implement corrective actions
• Generate new intellectual property

You will be working in a collaborative environment with multi-functional teams that specialize in diverse areas of expertise. Your responsibilities will also include: 

Collaborating with the design studio and system engineering groups to define and achieve experience goals
Designing for manufacturability with Process, Manufacturing Design, Technical Operations, and other cross-functional teams
Communicating multi-functionally and throughout management structure on a regular basis (written, verbal, and presentation)
Managing and tracking multiple priorities within schedule requirements
Leading design reviews and design documentation releases
