The fingerprint you use to unlock your device, authorize a payment, or access your most private data-that's Touch ID. We're looking for an experienced electrical engineer to define and drive the next generation of Touch ID sensor designs, from early architecture through high-volume production. You'll make technical decisions that shape how millions of users experience security and responsiveness on Apple products.
The Sensing Systems team develops MEMS, magnetic, and capacitive sensors that bring Apple products to life. Touch ID is central to how users trust and interact with their devices-and you'll own the electrical design decisions that make it possible.
This role puts you at the center of sensor development. You'll define module architectures, drive circuit design tradeoffs, and solve integration challenges that don't have obvious answers. You'll influence silicon requirements, shape system-level decisions, and own technical strategy from concept through mass production. When something isn't working, you'll dig in to understand why-and propose solutions that balance performance, power, manufacturability, and schedule.
We're looking for someone who combines deep analog expertise with the judgment to navigate ambiguity. You'll lead technical discussions with cross-functional partners, present recommendations to executives, and drive alignment when the path forward isn't clear. Your designs will ship in products used by millions.
