5G/4G Cellular Layer1 Control Firmware Engineer

Do you have a passion for invention and self-challenge? Do you thrive on pushing the limits of what's considered feasible? As part of an extraordinary modem team, you'll craft sophisticated groundbreaking embedded firmware that delivers more performance in our products than ever before. You'll work across fields to transform improved hardware elements into a single, integrated design. Join us, and you'll help us innovate new cellular technologies that continually outperform the previous iterations!

By collaborating with other product development groups across Apple, you'll push the industry boundaries of what wireless systems can do and improve the product experience for our customers across the world. As a Cellular Physical Layer Firmware Engineer on this team, you will be at the center of the embedded 5G/4G/multimode cellular firmware effort within a silicon design group responsible for designing and productizing pioneering cellular SoCs.

This position requires someone willing to learn or already familiar with all aspects of embedded software development, that thrives in a multi-layered multi-functional organization, is not afraid to debate ideas openly, and is flexible enough to shift on constantly evolving requirements.

Key Responsibilities:

• Specify, design, and implement PHY L1 firmware of an innovative mobile wireless communications system.
• Implement key scheduling and control processing in tight timelines, latency, and energy constraints.
• Work with Software designers to define interfaces to protocol stack, MAC/RRC, and required processor subsystems.
• Assist in developing pre-silicon emulation systems/virtual platforms and use them for pre-silicon L1 FW design and verification.
• Evaluate and implement groundbreaking tools for build, formal verification, and testing.
• Define methodologies and standard methodologies.

This role offers an exciting opportunity to work on cutting-edge cellular technologies and contribute to Apple's innovative products. You'll be part of a team that pushes the boundaries of wireless systems and improves the product experience for customers worldwide.
