TL;DR

Apple's Imaging and Sensing Incubation team is seeking an experienced FPGA Design Engineer to join their dynamic hardware development group. This senior-level position involves collaborating closely with system architecture, electrical engineering, algorithm, software, and product management teams to define requirements and execute projects for future Apple products. The role entails developing FPGA-based platforms from concept through hardware bring-up, including multi-sensor acquisition and processing systems, while utilizing tools like Vivado and Lattice Radiant. Engineers will work hands-on in the lab with oscilloscopes and logic analyzers, contributing to technology roadmaps and exploring emerging sensor technologies. Strong proficiency in System Verilog or Verilog RTL design, communication interfaces, and troubleshooting skills are essential for success in this role that directly impacts how Apple devices perceive their environment.
