As a Cellular Layer 1 Control Firmware Engineer in the L1S team at Apple, you'll be at the core of embedded 5G/4G/multimode cellular firmware development within a silicon design group responsible for creating and productizing advanced cellular SoCs. This role requires expertise in all aspects of embedded software development and the ability to thrive in a dynamic, cross-functional environment.
You'll design, implement, and verify Cellular Layer 1 control firmware for an innovative mobile wireless communications system. Your responsibilities include developing key scheduling and control algorithms, optimizing code for cycle, latency, and energy efficiency, and collaborating with global teams to optimize solutions. You'll work with other firmware and software designers to define interfaces with RF, physical layer, MAC/RRC, and other processor subsystems.
This position offers the opportunity to have an impact on every single Apple product, pushing the boundaries of what wireless systems can do and improving the product experience for customers worldwide. You'll be part of a world-class modem team, crafting sophisticated groundbreaking embedded firmware that delivers more performance in Apple products than ever before.
The role requires a strong understanding of software engineering principles, core computer science fundamentals, and proficiency in C programming. Experience in bare metal embedded FW development or Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) and parallel computing is essential. You should also have hands-on experience in wireless/cellular/satellite software or firmware development.
Apple offers a comprehensive benefits package, including medical and dental coverage, retirement benefits, stock options, and educational reimbursement opportunities. The base pay for this role ranges from $175,800 to $312,200, depending on skills, qualifications, experience, and location.
