Summary Posted: Apr 11, 2022 Role Number: 200366434 Would you like to join Apple's growing wireless silicon development team? Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) space vehicles transmit the power of a lightbulb, they are 13000 miles away, and are moving four kilometers per second. The received signals are commonly one hundred times weaker than cosmic microwave background radiation left over from the Big Bang and arrive next to interfering signals ten billion times stronger, just few MHz away. Our GNSS team is part of Apple's Cellular SOC team. We are a vertically integrated engineering team spanning RF, mixed signal analog design, systems engineering, Design Verification, RTL design, firmware and software engineering, Test, and Validation. Our focus is on highly energy efficient and robust GNSS receiver design. We develop GNSS technology that touches hundreds of millions of lives, something we are passionate about. We'd like you to consider being a part of our team. As a GNSS System Test Engineer, you will be a key member of our highly innovative Wireless SoC design team, developing tests in firmware for novel ultra-low-power GNSS IPs, with focus on wafer/Product Level Test implementation using Firmware. Key Qualifications Knowledge in RF testing and RF system-level test methods. Strong background in C/C++, as well as scripts languages such as MATLAB, Python, or Perl. Excellent communication skills, demonstrates strong problem-solving skills, and a team player. In-depth knowledge of the GNSS measurement is a plus. Experience of GNSS baseband processing algorithms is preferred. Leadership and management experience is a plus. Description - Developing System test procedures, debugging RF system performance issues. - Define and Develop tools to communicate with the silicon in different environments (Lab bench, Lab Tester emulator and on the Tester). - Work closely with RF system validation team and GNSS software team to resolve any issues arising as part of product testing. - Work closely with GNSS SW team in understanding system-level API and firmware functionality to meet production requirements. - Creating and managing timelines and tasks for multi-disciplinary project and maintaining good cross functional collaboration. - Defining HW blocks to speed up test time and improve efficiency. Education & Experience - Bachelors of Science in EE or Computer Science is required. - M.Sc. in one of the following fields is a plus. Additional Requirements
