About the Role

The Wireless Module Engineer (WME) is a highly motivated, self-driven technical lead responsible for driving the development of wireless modules from early architecture definition through mass-production ramp. This role requires strong cross-functional collaboration and the ability to deeply engage across a broad spectrum of technical domains including RF design, reliability, manufacturing test, supply chain, and system integration.

Responsibilities

Initiate and lead early-phase RF architecture and specification discussions between internal engineering teams and Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly & Test (OSAT).
Ensure all OSATs comply with internal specification formats, review procedures, and approval workflows.
Drive the formal module design release process, establishing and reviewing checkpoints for schematics, PCB layout, electromagnetic/RF simulation results, DFM, test data readiness, and OSAT design feedback.
Manage module integration and ATE test coverage at OSATs.
Oversee all aspects of ATE maturity preparation for hardware and software, firmware, module calibrations, GRR, and CPK/data analysis.
Drive OSATs, set priorities, and collaborate closely with them to validate and approve the final ATE hardware and software integration, test coverage, and corresponding test limits, ensuring timely delivery of tested modules for product NPI builds.
Lead the failure analysis process with the OSATs and work with them to implement improvement activities, including enhancing ATE testers, optimizing software/firmware test time, and improving overall yield and retest rates.
Facilitate collaboration with multi-functional groups at Apple and define the test coverage.
Collaborate closely with internal reliability engineering teams to translate expected product field-usage profiles into feasible and data-driven reliability test models for modules and components.
Ensure technical excellence, risk visibility, and disciplined execution from early concept through manufacturing ramp.
Define the test coverage, including but not limited to Open-Short & Continuity test, VCO calibration and test, TX/RX power calibration and test, RF packet test, EVM test, RX sensitivity test.
Define best engineering methods for custom Wireless module and component development during prototyping phase.
Set up project schedules and work breakdown structures while communicating risks with prioritization.
Review mechanical/electrical designs for sockets, fixtures, and test systems.

Requirements

Minimum requirement of a bachelors degree.
Strong RF fundamentals.
Proven track record for effective written/verbal communication.
Proven track record for leading projects with self-motivation.
Ability to travel internationally.
