TL;DR · iPhone Touch Sensing Architect

As an iPhone Touch Sensing Architect, you will join the iPhone Touch Sensing Technology team to develop high-precision, low-latency MultiTouch solutions for mobile devices. You will be responsible for conceiving, modeling, prototyping, and integrating new sensor solutions while defining key figures of merit and authoring requirement specifications. Your daily work involves developing end-to-end models covering sensors, circuits, DSP, and algorithms to inform technical decisions, alongside creating tools and infrastructure for scalable modeling. You will perform system-level integration, bring-up, failure analysis, and root cause identification. The role requires expertise in multi-physics systems and proficiency in MATLAB, Python, SPICE, and COMSOL. You must possess a deep understanding of physics, analog circuits, and linear algebra to solve complex technical challenges across the hardware lifecycle from proof-of-concept through high-volume production.

What you'll do

  • Develop key figures of merit and author requirement specifications for touch sensing performance.
  • Create end-to-end models covering sensors, circuits, DSP, and algorithms to inform technical decisions.
  • Build tools, scripts, and infrastructure to enable scalable modeling processes.
  • Execute sensor design, ASIC application design, system-level integration, and hardware bring-up.
  • Analyze and reconcile real-world build data with model predictions.
  • Perform failure analysis to identify root causes and propose corrective actions.
  • Provide technical updates and status reports to leadership and cross-functional teams.

What we're looking for

  • Hands-on experience in system-level design, architecture, characterization, and validation.
  • Experience modeling, building, and testing sophisticated, multi-physics systems.
  • Proficiency in MATLAB, Python, SPICE, COMSOL, or similar packages.
  • Bachelor of Science degree.
  • Minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Experience with high-volume mass production (preferred).
  • Deep understanding of physics, analog circuits, and linear algebra (preferred).
  • Ability to thrive in a cross-functional environment (preferred).
