TL;DR · TFT Panel Design Engineer

The TFT Panel Design Engineer joins the TFT panel design team to design, develop, and launch next-generation display technologies for Apple products. This role serves as a focal point for architecting total TFT pixel and panel designs, including display panel modeling, simulation, and integrated circuit-on-glass design. Key responsibilities involve architecture scoping, device modeling, parasitic parameter extraction, and failure mode analysis. The engineer will explore new TFT technologies and collaborate with cross-functional teams including Display Optics, Touch EE, and Mechanical Engineering. Required skills include a strong command of electrical engineering circuit design fundamentals, Cadence/Virtuoso modeling and simulation, and experience measuring IV and CV of TFT devices. The work focuses on delivering advanced panel designs to enable superior display performance and high-volume manufacturing.

What you'll do

  • Scope and define the architecture for TFT panels.
  • Design, model, and simulate TFT devices and their electrical characteristics.
  • Perform pixel and panel layout design and parasitic parameter extraction.
  • Design, simulate, and validate on-glass integrated circuits.
  • Conduct failure mode analysis and root cause investigations for technical issues.
  • Explore and validate new TFT technologies for future display products.
  • Characterize the optical and electrical performance of display panels.
  • Coordinate with external vendors to manage display manufacturing processes.

What we're looking for

  • Strong command of Electrical Engineering circuit design fundamentals in both analog and digital.
  • Experience with Cadence/Virtuoso modeling and simulation.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering or related field plus 4 years of TFT or related industry experience (preferred).
  • M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering or related field plus 8 years of TFT or related industry experience (preferred).
  • Experience in display touch, measuring/characterizing IV and CV of TFT devices, and manufacturing high volume displays (preferred).
  • Experience in characterizing panel optical and electrical performance and designing gate, column driver ICs and other display electronics (preferred).
