Mechanical Systems Design Engineer

You will brainstorm, design, develop and characterize metrology equipment used to calibrate and test Apple’s new groundbreaking technology and products. Your design work will range from lab scale systems-- understanding and characterizing tool capability at sub-micron mechanical tolerances, to developing automated mass- production measurement tools, where balancing the engineering tradeoffs between precision, costs, lead-time and throughput is critical. With great diversity of the problem space, you will rely on your engineering background to architect the optimal solution for the problem at hand, leaning on the fundamentals of materials science, structural and thermal analysis, machinery design, automation and manufacturing processes. You will work collaboratively with a creative and diverse team of experienced engineers from all disciplines including instrumentation, core technology, product design and operations teams developing state of the art measurement systems for Apple. Minimum Qualifications You have an engineering background (Mechanical / Aerospace / Mechatronics) You’re motivated with the dream and ability to become an integral part of Apple’s talented, highly creative and dynamic engineering team You have excellent communication and interpersonal skills You know 3D CAD modeling systems and workflow You can apply GD&T (ASME Y14.5) principles and drafting standards You love stress-strain relationships, static mechanics (determinate and indeterminate systems) You get excited about kinematics and mechanism design Preferred Qualifications AIML experience preferred High volume electronics manufacturing equipment design, including structures, sheet metal, plastics, fixture/mechanism design, robotics, probe design, plating materials and thermal design is a plus UG NX experience preferred FEA (stress analysis) highly desirable, ANSYS preferred Plastic part design, molded part design highly desirable Metal and plastic materials science, tribology and wear principles highly desirable Project and product management experience strongly preferred People management experience a plus
