Noise & Vibration Engineer
Job Description
At Apple, extraordinary ideas have a way of quickly becoming extraordinary products, services and customer experiences. Sound is an essential and compelling facet of the customer experience. Apple has assembled an elite Acoustics team that enables our customers to experience music with delight, communicate with clarity, and enjoy elegant sound throughout our product line. In Apple Acoustics we work with the utmost attention to detail, directly impacting the design of products that millions of people around the world love! Our Noise & Vibration team contributes to hardware design, validation, and troubleshooting to minimize distracting audible noises and optimize their sound quality due to coexistence activities on device. We are a diverse team of acoustics and vibration experts, accomplished listeners, and creative problem solvers. We work daily with multifunctional teams on innovative solutions to complex engineering challenges. We are looking for a Noise & Vibration Engineer to join our team. Could this be you? As an Electronic Noise & Vibration engineer you will author SOPs, test plan and specifications. You will quantify noises, facilitate user studies, establish thresholds in lab and factory environments. These will enable you to educate multi-functional teams to implement known standard methodologies and run studies to learn new best practices. The analysis of the validation work that you will lead will help you to better understand root causes of various problems. You will work closely with partner facilities overseas but will need to travel minimally.

Required Qualifications
- Though most of our engineers have advanced degrees in Mechanical Engineering, a Bachelors degree is required at a minimum. But if you’ve learned about multi-physics from adjacent fields in Applied Physics, Electrical Engineering or Acoustics Engineering, we still want to hear from you. (degree in mechanical engineering)
- Experience as a “generalist” in multiple types of engineering work is valuable. (experience)
- Creative problem solver who thrives in a fast-paced multi-tasking environment (experience)
Preferred Qualifications
- Knowledge of acoustics and vibration principles and how motion of mechanical systems turns into radiated noise (experience)
- Fundamental knowledge of how voltage potential and current can lead to vibration (experience)
- Basic understanding of RF, thermal, acoustic, magnetics, and mechanical statics and dynamics (preferred if these fundamentals have been applied to acoustic transducers such as MEMs microphones, receivers and micro-speakers) (experience)
- Acoustic and vibration measurement skills with experience making measurements in anechoic/hemi-anechoic chambers (experience)
- Accomplished listener with excellent hearing over the audible frequency range (experience)
- Ability to learn new coding languages and navigate large datasets (experience)
- Useful but not required: history of high-volume consumer electronics, experience with ultra low-noise measurements and a background electrical engineering. Familiarity with sensing technologies and their electrical interfaces such as PDM, differential analog, I2C (experience)
