Optical Sensing PD Mechanical Engineer

The Optical Sensing Product Design team is seeking a mechanical engineer to build great experiences and bring Apple products to life. We develop sensors that change the way people interact with their technology. You will help a diverse team of talented engineers and play a key role in specifying developing characterizing and validating the mechanical design of optical sensing systems. At the end of the extraordinary team effort your work will be in the hands of millions of people making a difference in their daily lives.

You will lead the end-to-end design development and validation of spectral sensing technology into Apples portfolio of this role you will work collaboratively with a talented multifunctional team to generate and validate design concepts and as the mechanical specialist you will be responsible for design engineering analysis and documentation for your piece of the project. - Identify design tradeoffs and risks to choose viable paths forward that lead to a great customer experience. - Design optical modules and packaging and ensure system integration requirements are met for sensor module functional and cosmetic performance. - Apply experiment design and the scientific method to reduce design risk early. - Work with component part and manufacturing partners on design manufacturability and resolution of mechanical issues. - Support external manufacturing vendors with process development and root cause analysis for issues found during testing including international travel between 10% and 25%.

Oversee complete module design and system new sensor technologies and proof-of-concept module system and feature-level failure mode analysis and root cause travel to support production development.

Experience in the design of miniature component or opto-mechanical in 3D CAD design (NX preferred) and application of statistical tools and techniques (Matlab Python JMP etc).nMinimum requirement of a bachelors degree.
