Junior Wireless SoC Design Verification Engineer

Apple's wireless chip powers connectivity across every new iPhone — and its successor is already taking shape. Would you like to join Apple's growing wireless silicon development team? Our Wireless SOC organization owns every aspect of wireless silicon development, with a particular emphasis on highly energy-efficient design and new technologies that transform the user experience at the product level.

It is driven by a world-class, vertically integrated team spanning RF/Analog, Systems/PHY/MAC, VLSI/RTL design and integration, Emulation, Design Verification, Test and Validation, and FW/SW engineering. As a Wireless SOC Design Verification Engineer, you'll be at the heart of the chip design effort — owning a meaningful verification scope and growing it project to project.

You'll work alongside DV methodologists, designers, architects, communication systems engineers, and firmware engineers to build reusable testbenches and verification environments using the latest metric-driven verification methodology.

You'll be responsible for pre-silicon RTL verification at the block, subsystem, and top-level SOC, taking your scope from test planning through coverage closure and signoff. Your activity may focus at block level, subsystem level, or top-level SOC, including end-to-end simulations of the entire data/control path.
