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. Do you love creating elegant solutions to highly complex challenges? Do you intrinsically see the importance in every detail? As part of our Silicon Technologies group, you'll help design and manufacture our next-generation, high-performance, power-efficient GPU. You'll ensure Apple products and services can seamlessly and efficiently handle the tasks that make them beloved by millions. Joining this group means you'll be responsible for crafting and building the technology that fuels Apple's devices. Together, you and your team will enable our customers to do all the things they love with their devices. This exciting role requires a mix of strategic engineering along with hands-on, technical work. You will be responsible for realizing the complete electrical analysis closure from early design planning to tapeout. You will have hands on experience in physical design and large chip integration.

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering.

• Experience planning, implementing, and analyzing power delivery networks. Emphasis will be with on-die high frequency power delivery, but exposure to off-die concepts and models is required.
• Your expertise working with different types of power-gated delivery techniques are crucial, including distributed and ring methods. Experience with in-rush current analysis and mitigation techniques recommended.
• Showcase your experience with bump planning and redistribution layer routing strategies, including methods for working with IO bumps and edge encroachment scenarios.
• Experience with fundamentals of Signal/Power Integrity checks for Electro-migration and Static Noise checks. Circuit design and simulation background a plus, but not required.
• Background with Power Integrity analysis methodologies including Static IR and Dynamic Voltage drop checks, involving both Vector-less and Vectored approaches.
• Knowledge of large SoC designs (>20M gates) with frequencies in excess of 1GHz using innovative technologies will serve you well.
• From a CAD tool perspective, prior experience with global power integrity tool (e.g. Redhawk, Voltus) is required. Additional experience with global timing verification, SPICE simulation/analysis, and Physical Design Verification Flows are a plus.
