Product Design Engineer-Accessories

Apple is where individual imaginations gather together, committing to the values that lead to great work. Every new product we build, service we create, or Apple Store experience we deliver is the result of us making each other’s ideas stronger. That happens because every one of us shares a belief that we can make something wonderful and share it with the world, changing lives for the better. It’s the diversity of our people and their thinking that inspires the innovation that runs through everything we do. When we bring everybody in, we can do the best work of our lives. Here, you’ll do more than join something — you’ll add something.\\n\\nJoin our Accessories Product Design team and drive the future of external and internal wired data and power transmission across multiple systems and stand-alone products. We are a dynamic group that leads new product introduction from the architectural phase through production ramping. We work collaboratively with many groups from Industrial Design to Reliability to Technical Program Management and Hardware engineering. Leave your mark on future Apple products.

In Accessories Product Design you will directly interface with many system teams from Mac to Audio to Vision and everything in-between. You will leverage your experience with wire harness design and support system teams with sizing, routing and manufacturing both harness and internal cable solutions in the most efficient and elegant ways possible.
