TL;DR · Software Integrity Engineer, Sensing & Connectivity

The Software Integrity Engineer, Sensing & Connectivity joins the Sensing and Connectivity team to validate and advance next-generation location algorithms. This role focuses on measuring, characterizing, and improving the accuracy and reliability of a proprietary positioning stack that fuses GNSS, Cellular, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth signals for products like Maps Navigation and Fitness applications. The engineer will design test benches, execute validation campaigns, build real-world and simulated test scenarios, and develop custom analysis scripts to isolate regressions. Key technical requirements include proficiency in Python for data analysis and scripting, experience with GNSS testing, wireless system verification, and building ML or AI systems. Additionally, the role requires hands-on experience with LLMs, prompt engineering, agentic frameworks, and maintaining test benches for GNSS simulation equipment while navigating complex sensor-fusion architectures and 3GPP location-service specifications to ensure high-quality user experiences.

What you'll do

  • Design and build new test benches to validate cutting-edge location features across the lab footprint.
  • Execute validation campaigns to ensure new location features meet Apple's quality standards.
  • Create representative real-world and simulated scenarios to characterize location behavior in diverse environments.
  • Define and track specific quality metrics to gate software changes throughout the release cycle.
  • Develop custom analysis scripts and statistical models to identify and quantify positioning regressions.
  • Maintain the operational health, configuration, and readiness of devices, test rigs, and receivers.
  • Analyze logs to triage issues and root-cause failures in the positioning stack.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or equivalent experience.
  • 3+ years of experience in GNSS testing, positioning validation, or wireless system verification.
  • Experience building and shipping ML or AI systems in production or through significant project work.
  • Hands-on experience with LLMs, prompt engineering, and agentic frameworks.
  • Proficiency in Python for data analysis, scripting, and developing automated test harnesses.
  • Experience setting up and maintaining test benches for GNSS/A-GNSS simulation equipment and live signal testing.
  • Familiarity with QA methodologies, test automation strategy, and debugging logs to root-cause issues.
  • Knowledge of A-GNSS protocols, multi-constellation processing, and 3GPP location-service specifications.
