As a Module Reliability Engineer at Apple, you will be part of the Module Reliability Group, guiding development teams toward reliable design of new technology components, particularly for iPhone display and touch technologies. Your role involves identifying high-risk failure modes early in the design life cycle, collaborating with design engineering teams to reduce risks, developing new tests based on physics of failure and expected user behaviors, delivering critical test equipment and specifications, working with vendors to meet reliability requirements, and supporting failure analysis.
Key responsibilities and skills:
- Identify and mitigate high-risk failure modes in early design stages
- Develop and implement physics-based reliability tests
- Collaborate with design teams to improve product reliability
- Work with vendors to ensure reliability requirements are met
- Conduct and support failure analysis
- Apply strong problem-solving abilities and understanding of material and device properties
- Perform statistical data analysis and clear reporting
- Utilize theoretical understanding of physical failure analysis techniques
The ideal candidate will have:
- A Bachelor's degree in a technical field (engineering, physics, etc.)
- 2-10 years of experience in an engineering role (preferred)
- M.S. or Ph.D. in Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent (preferred)
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- Strong attention to detail and curiosity about how technologies work
- Proficiency in productivity apps and presentation tools
- Statistical experience (e.g., Weibull, JMP) and familiarity with accelerated test models (preferred)
- Knowledge of Failure Analysis techniques and root cause analysis (preferred)
- Ability to travel internationally without restriction (preferred)
