Join Apples Wireless Connectivity team developing state-of-the-art WiFi SoCs that power hundreds of millions of Apple products worldwide. Youll be part of our vertically integrated organization shaping next-gen wireless technology from concept through production. As a Wireless Radio Verification Engineer, youll ensure first-time-right silicon success through sophisticated testbenches, comprehensive scenarios, and cutting-edge verification methodologies-enabling multi-gigabit wireless technology connecting the world!

As a Wireless Radio Verification Engineer, you will be at the core of our wireless products success, leading verification of Radio digital controllers and Digital+RF subsystems that enable exceptional wireless performance. You will architect verification environments for complex radio control / transceiver paths spanning PLLs, DAC / ADC data paths, power management, and co-existence mechanisms. Working at the intersection of digital design and RF/mixed-signal-modeled systems, youll lead cross-functional collaboration spanning Design, RF, PHY, Systems, and Integration teams. Youll develop verification strategies for radio-modeled subsystems enabling robust wireless operation across diverse scenarios and environmental conditions throughout Apples product ecosystem.

Lead subsystem-level verification of Radio digital controllers / data paths from test planning through feature bring up and closure.

Drive cross-functional collaboration to define verification requirements and debug complex issues spanning digital and RF/analog domains.

Architect sophisticated UVM testbench environments and infrastructure frameworks for radio control systems, PLL controllers, and data path subsystems.

Develop constrained random scenarios for complex radio protocols and multi-domain interactions.

Lead digital + mixed-signal co-simulation efforts integrating SystemVerilog behavioral and DMS models.

Mentor team members on radio verification approaches and establish best practices.

Requirements

BS and a minimum of 10 years relevant industry experience

Key Skills

  • Demonstrated expertise verifying complex digital ASICs with track record of successful silicon tapeouts.
  • Deep knowledge of ASIC verification flows with SystemVerilog and UVM including testbench architecture, verification planning, and coverage-driven methodologies.
  • Experience developing verification environments from scratch and bringing up complex designs in simulation.
  • Experience with constrained random testing, functional coverage, and assertion-based verification.

Technical Expertise

  • Experience verifying Radio digital controllers, DSPs, PLL control systems, or wireless transceiver subsystems.
  • Exposure to RF/analog system designs such as LNAs, Mixers, PLLs, amplifiers, LDOs, DAC / ADCs.
  • Experience with digital + mixed-signal co-simulation using SystemVerilog analog behavioral models / DMS or similar real-number-modeling approaches.
  • Exposure to Python or similar scripting for automation, analysis, or infrastructure.

Leadership and Communication

Technical leadership through example-driving verification strategies, establishing best practices, and delivering complex projects.

Excellent communication skills and ability to influence cross-functional technical decisions.
