工作职责
As an intern, you will: Design and prototype AI-driven tools that support hardware engineers in data analysis, test automation, and debugging workflows. Implement backend services in Python and frontend interfaces in TypeScript (React/Next.js). Integrate databases (SQL, vector databases) for data storage, search, and retrieval. Explore AI/ML workflows (embeddings, retrieval, summarization, code assistance). Collaborate with hardware and software engineers to translate requirements into working tools. Write clear documentation, tests, and deployment scripts.
Our Mac hardware system design engineer team is responsible for delivering the best computers to the end users. In this team, you will work as an intern with the best engineers in the world. You will be encouraged to do something different and outstanding, to explore the far reaches of the possible, to be part of the team which always changes the world. We are currently seeking hard-working EE major interns who can start work in 2025. The interns will support electrical & system design and integration of the Mac computers. The candidate will be assigned tasks that support the design, integration, implementation, testing, and qualification of various electrical sub-systems. Would prefer the candidate be self-motivated, a creative problem solver, a good communicator and motivator. Responsibilities include but are not limited to: - Participate in development of next generation Mac products. - Be the expert to help with EE related issues. - Be the expert to do script development. - Good ability for issue summary and reporting. - Be able to manage vendor EE resources for better technical support.
You will be responsible for validating the performance and functional aspects of Wireless on Apple products from a user experience perspective throughout their development lifecycle, from early prototypes to post-release phases. Your role will also involve ensuring that Wireless on Apple products remains at the forefront of technological advancements. You'll conduct in-depth analysis and proposing improvements to innovative technologies developed at Apple through focused experiments and real-world engineering analysis to improve overall end-user wireless experiences. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES INCLUDE: - Developing and running wireless test plans with a primary focus on user experience to ensure seamless connectivity and optimal performance. - Performing failure analysis to identify hardware or software issues through laboratory and field experiments. - Conducting in-depth analysis of hardware, software, and system issues, including protocol stack analysis (PHY, MAC, Network, and Application layers). - Generating comprehensive system performance test reports that include key performance indicators, highlighting critical issues, and providing a concise, data-driven summary for senior management review. - Applying your data-driven expertise and deep engineering knowledge to influence program decisions. - Collaborating with cross-functional teams and third-party vendors throughout the project lifecycle.
- You will participate to 3GPP standards meetings and steer/support systems engineering team to build innovative modems. - You will develop and run C/C++ simulations to help model the design and performance of PHY and MAC algorithms for a 5G multimode modem - You will be part of a team defining and doing research of next generation standards like 6G.
- You will support product requirements for iPhone/iPad/Mac/Apple Watch/AppleTV/Apple Vision Pro - Bring-up, verification, and triage of new hardware platforms - Work cooperatively with other parts of Apple to diagnose and triage new product introduction (NPI) issues in factory. - You will work with cross-functional teams and help delivering high quality software at fundamental layer of operating system including frameworks, daemons, drivers for both factory and consumers. - You need to keep security and performance in mind, enabling key features while protecting privacy and preventing fraudulence. - Working on technology you will have the opportunity to have a major impact on the implementation and quality of Apple's next generation products. - Up to 10-20% travel.
