Battery Management Systems IC Engineer

Do you have a passion for invention and self-challenge? As part of our Battery Engineering group, craft creative battery solutions that deliver more energy in smaller spaces than ever before. We work across disciplines to transform improved hardware elements into a single, integrated design. Join us, and you'll help us innovate new battery technologies that continually outperform the previous iterations. By collaborating with other product development groups across Apple, you'll push the industry boundaries of what batteries can do and improve the product experience for our customers across the world! In this role, you will utilize your electronics design skills to design, develop and test battery monitoring units and Battery management units (BMU) for next generation consumer electronic products. You will work with suppliers to develop custom parts where needed and design test methodologies to verify the battery management unit design!Push the boundaries of technologies to maximize performance and minimize volume through modeling and simulation Specify custom parts and PCBs for use in BMUs Analyze the design with simulation tools and calculations to verify its conformance to the requirements. Create IC models, and conduct model validation Conduct design validation on prototypes to implement the design Conduct design reviews, incorporate team feedback and release the design documents for builds Collaborate with multi-functional partners (Product Design, System EE, Cell Engineering, Firmware, Algorithms, etc.) to ensure the product is developed on time and Conduct investigations and prepare reports for problems or issues Develop schematic and guide component selection to meet all physical and electrical requirements of BMU. Specify production test plans and limits and work with CM partners to realize designBS degree in Electrical Engineering or relevant field of study Experience in analog integrated circuit design such as DACs, LDOs, SMPSs or relevantMS degree and 10+ years relevant industry experience Experience with creating and using real-numbered models in System Verilog or analog behavioral models in Verilog-A/MS Industry experience in Power Electronics, Battery Management (fuel gauge and charger), Portable Consumer Electronics, Medical Electronics, or Automotive Electronics Experience scripting in Python, Shell, Unix, or MATLAB for test automation and data analysis Experience with high volume manufacturing Experience developing a list of tests from the datasheet to determine chip coverage Ability to create functionally equivalent models to the associated portions of the design Excellent written and verbal communication skills and experience presenting data to cross-functional teams and/or management Understanding of the silicon manufacturing process and how semiconductor devices and associated parasitic subcircuits are created
