System Architecture & Product Lead - Q

Our team is new, growing, and evolving quickly, and we are hiring across multiple disciplines. We work at the intersection of machine learning, hardware, and software, creating technologies that reshape how people communicate and experience the world around them in everyday life.

As a System Architecture & Product Lead, you’ll own the system architecture of a unique sensing module and lead the program from design through execution and delivery, including integration of the system into the product device. You will work closely with multiple HW and SW teams and with cross-functional partners to define the architecture, component specifications, and operating modes, and to own end-to-end performance. The role calls for strong hands-on experience and the ability to lead multidisciplinary teams in delivering reliable, high-performance system features.

Lead advanced sensing programs with Q technology across various Apple products end-to-end: from early-stage feasibility through design up to mass-production Own the architecture design, component specifications and operating modes Own end-to-end system performance System risk mapping and mitigation activities Own the power budget across operating modes, optimizing consumption to maximize product usage time Aggressors mapping and the error budget Trade-off mapping and system optimization - collaborate with multiple HW and SW teams to analyze and optimize overall system performance Represent the system in technical reviews and report status and risks to senior management Lead multi-disciplinary teams to deliver reliable, high-performance system features Mentor and develop engineers, and take an active part in hiring and growing the team
