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 must perform circuit layout, SPICE simulation, and characterize IV and CV of TFT devices. Required skills include expertise in OLED or LCD electronics, understanding of TFT processes, and experience with gate or column driver IC designs. The work focuses on solving complex display performance problems by collaborating with cross-functional teams and external vendors to validate new technologies and manufacture high-volume displays.

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 problems.
  • Explore and validate new TFT technologies for future display products.
  • Characterize the optical and electrical performance of display panels.

What we're looking for

  • BS degree and a minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Hands-on experience and technical knowledge in display (OLED, LCD) or related electronics design and development.
  • Ability to perform circuit layout, parasitic RC extraction, circuit modeling, and SPICE simulation.
  • Understanding of basic TFT and panel processes.
  • Ph.D. or M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field plus 4 years of TFT or related industry experience (preferred).
  • Experience in display touch, measuring/characterizing IV and CV of TFT devices, or developing high-volume displays (preferred).
  • Experience in characterizing panel optical and electrical performance or designing gate, column driver ICs and other display electronics (preferred).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
