Weekly Hours: 40
Role Number:200572698

Are you a innovative thinker? Do you love the challenge of advancing a widely accepted technology? The Wireless Technologies and Ecosystems (WTE) team is seeking a hardworking individual with outstanding communication skills and an exceptional technical knowledge of cellular technologies. You will design, develop, and patent the next generation of our innovative connectivity technologies. You will collaborate across departments to help craft wireless solutions that elevate the customer experience with Apple products and iOS SW features.

Description

We are working on influencing the definition of next-generation wireless systems/standards in terms of system concepts and network architecture. You will have the opportunity to work with different technical teams to define wireless and network features and help drive external infrastructure vendors and carriers to full feature realization. Partnering with other engineers you will define problem statements, design AI/ML-based data-driven learning solutions, assess the system-level performance, and research innovative ideas & solutions. Most importantly, you will be part of building intellectual property and participating in industry/academic research projects as well as contributing to our simulator/emulator framework. Day to day, you will analyze system constraints and requirements based on both wireless connectivity standards and product requirements, to set system performance targets for wireless products. You will define innovations and technical contributions in different areas of the cellular system (L1/L2/L3) and network architecture. In addition, you will develop models of overall system and network performance and evaluate performance and critical metrics tradeoffs to optimize the overall architecture. This is an extraordinary opportunity to help Apple build innovative wireless devices and features for hundreds of millions of Apple users.
