Camera Image Sensor Analog u0026 Mixed-Signal Design Engineer - Camera Hardware

At Apple, great ideas have a way of becoming great products, services, and customer experiences very quickly. Bring curiosity, passion, and dedication to your job and there's no telling what you could accomplish. As part of the Camera Silicon Architecture team, you'll help design innovative technology that allows each generation of Apple products to produce photos even more incredible than the last. You'll collaborate with teams across Apple to explore, define and drive the development of next-generation camera silicon image sensor architectures.

We are looking for a remarkable Mixed Signal Designer with analog design experience to work with multi-functional teams and external vendors to define, develop and productize the next generation of CMOS image sensor solutions. This position focuses specifically on all major blocks of an image sensor ASIC including ADCs, pixel array control, bias and reference circuits, digital control, and overall sensor integration into a camera system.This is a multi-functional technology and product development role, and you will work closely with various teams, such as pixel, sensor, substrate, FW, and ISP. In this role, you will:

• Collaborate with global sensor suppliers to develop and evaluate new sensors
• Develop u0026 drive chip level architecture specifications through the implementation phase
• Detailing and communicating your results to multi-functional engineering teams
• Working with the internal customer teams to evaluate the contribution of the sensor to system performance
• Working with collaborators to assure that sufficient and correct verification/testing is implemented at all stages to guarantee performance
• Participate in system integration tasks with multi-disciplinary teams. Working with collaborators to assure that sufficient and correct verification/testing is implemented at all stages to guarantee performanceMS or PhD degree in EE or other similar fields3+ years of relevant industry experienceKnowledge of general industry trends and technical challenges of high performance image sensor manufacturing technology, image sensor performance metrics, image sensor usage and integration into camera systemsExperience with high performance and low power image sensor designExperience with modeling and simulating device/system level conceptual designs to explore device/IP/system level performance parametersAbility to methodically derive design and verification requirements from design specifications and drive design activities toward compliance to requirementsExcellent written and verbal communication, solid collaboration, and leadership skillsExperience with industry standard ASIC design tools and modern design verification techniques in mixed signal environmentsArray
