We live in a mobile and device driven world where knowledge of the physical world around us is needed. We rely on this knowledge to get around, to learn about our environment and to enable spectacular new features for custom applications. Apple is meeting those needs as robustly and as creatively as possible and is interested in people who want to help meet that commitment. The success we are striving will be the result of very skilled people working in an environment which cultivates creativity, partnership, and thinking of old problems in new ways. If that sounds like the kind of environment that you find intriguing, then let's talk. These elements come together to make Apple an amazing environment for motivated people to do the greatest work of their lives. You will become part of a team that sets the standard in cultivating excellence, creativity and innovation. This role works closely with internal designers and external vendors to enable design that's currently not achievable in the existing supply chain. You will be involved in developing new equipment, processes, and methods for process validation/ monitoring to convert an idea in the lab to a mass-produced part.

Will you help us design the next generation of revolutionary Apple products?

Description
This is a role that requires close collaboration with external vendors, contract manufacturers, and internal teams (design, operation, and so on) to deliver an active alignment solution for a new optical module from engineering to mass production phases.

Typically, the active alignment solution consists of new equipment (new equipment refers to a new machine model/ variant, not a new buy of an existing machine model), a process recipe, a method for process validation and control, and deployment at the contract manufacturer site.

Responsibilities
Work closely with external vendor, contract manufacturer, and internal team to deliver active alignment process for new optical module in engineering phase (small quantity)

Review module alignment/ assembly requirement

Translate module requirement to process requirement and process requirement to equipment requirement

Conduct new equipment buy off, process and machine bring up

Fine tune and sustain operation in engineering phase

Convert and deploy engineering solution for mass production

Conduct post-build analysis and follow-up such as generating report on process efficiency and yield, FACA (failure analysis and corrective action) on yield loss, process improvement and etc

Preferred Qualifications
Licensed to operate laser (eg, Singapore NEA N3 license)

Experience in developing new mass production equipment and process for new optical devices

Experience in translating optical design document to alignment and process requirement

Expertise in optical domain to understand/ read optical design document

Expertise in electrical electronic field to understand/ read EE design document

Experience in enabling equipment and process from prototype build to mass production phase

Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor/Master/ PhD in Engineering, Physics or Materials or equivalent.

Expertise in either 1) optics attach (active alignment) process or 2) optical functionality test of optical devices (for example camera, projector, range finder, flashlight, proximity sensor and etc)

Experience in tooling-up existing process machine for new optical device (>3 years)

Experience in in improving process efficiency and yield, eg design of experiment (DOE), machine bottleneck analysis (>3 years)

Clear and effective communication (written, in person and virtual) skill
