Description
You will lead Product Design for Apple's home hardware line, taking products from early architecture through mass production. This means owning mechanical architecture, system-level design, driving integration across electrical, thermal, acoustic, optical, and antenna domains, and ensuring products ship at Apple quality and scale.
Minimum Qualifications
10+ years experience in mechanical design, 8+ years in engineering management, preferably working experience in consumer electronics BS in Mechanical Engineering or related field Extensive experience in product development engineering, with significant time spent in engineering leadership roles, preferably in consumer electronics Track record of shipping high-volume, tightly integrated electromechanical products from concept through mass production Deep understanding of mechanical engineering fundamentals: materials, thermal management, structural analysis, tolerance systems, and manufacturing processes (injection molding, die casting, machining, stamping, extrusion, etc.) Strong design validation background: FEA, tolerance analysis, failure analysis, DOE, prototype-driven development Experience managing teams across multiple simultaneous programs at different lifecycle stages
Preferred Qualifications
MS or advanced degree in engineering Experience leading product development for products where acoustic, optical, or sensor performance is central to the user experience Demonstrated ability to drive system-level architecture decisions that span mechanical, electrical, thermal, and software domains Familiarity with cost-driven design tradeoffs at scale, including silicon and module selection, BOM optimization, and platform reuse strategies Experience building or restructuring product development organizations Track record of effective cross-functional leadership in environments where key partners sit outside your reporting chain
