SoC Integration Engineer
Description For SoC Integration Engineer
Apple is seeking a talented SoC Integration Engineer to join their Hardware team in Austin. This is a high-visibility role where you'll be at the forefront of developing Apple's cutting-edge chip technology. You'll be responsible for all aspects of design and development of large SOCs, handling both internal and external IP integration, and building sophisticated sub-systems.
The role involves working with state-of-the-art technology in SOC design, including top-level integration with IPs, sub-systems, PHY-macros, and IO/PAD-ring systems. You'll be collaborating closely with multiple teams including Chip Architecture, Design Verification, Physical Design, and DFT to achieve SOC tapeout goals on schedule.
At Apple, you'll be part of a team that's known for delivering extraordinary ideas that become excellent products at an impressive pace. The position requires strong technical expertise in RTL design, synthesis, and QC flows for large-scale SOCs, as well as experience with power intent (UPF) for complex, high-performance, and low-power SOC designs.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment and wants to make a direct impact on Apple's industry-leading chip design. You'll be working with multi-disciplinary groups, driving communication across teams, and ensuring designs are delivered on time with the highest quality standards.
The role offers the chance to work on products that millions of people use daily, with access to cutting-edge technology and resources. If you're passionate about chip design and want to be part of Apple's innovation journey, this position offers the perfect blend of technical challenges and career growth opportunities.
