The Camera Hardware Engineering group is responsible for the development of key technology for Apple products. We are seeking an energetic and highly motivated production engineer to work on advanced optical technology development. To support new process development and the establishment of manufacturing lines for our new products, we are expanding our Production Engineering team. We are seeking a core talent who can strongly lead the setup of production lines. The ideal candidate will take a hands-on approach to drive the rapid in-house fabrication of equipment and tooling, while effectively managing external vendors according to the project scale. We are looking for a professional with comprehensive experience in production engineering. Your expertise should cover setting up environments for new product design and process validation, as well as handling everything from the conceptual design and launch of production equipment to tooling design and vendor management (e.g., equipment manufacturers) once the process is finalized. As we handle high-precision optical components, hands-on experience and knowledge in sub-micron level assembly and evaluation are critical. Additionally, you will be expected to collaborate closely with the process development and product design teams, and work alongside our suppliers to ensure successful technology transfers. We are looking for an individual who can think logically to meet highly complex requirements, work independently, communicate smoothly with stakeholders including global teams, and continuously embrace new challenges.
Bachelor's degree or higher in Engineering or Science, or an equivalent level of capability. Proactive, plan-oriented, self-motivated, and highly driven individual.
Hands-on, end-to-end experience independently executing the entire process of production equipment, from design to launch. Experience in structural analysis using FEA (Finite Element Analysis). Experience in electrical hardware design (e.g., control panel design, creating wiring diagrams). PLC programming experience. Experience in implementing and configuring machine vision systems. Production engineering experience in the electronic components or semiconductor industry. Experience as a project leader or in a management role. Experience in providing technical guidance and mentoring to team members and junior engineers, as well as experience collaborating on cross-functional projects. Proficiency in Japanese (reading, writing, and daily conversation).
At Apple, we believe accessibility is a fundamental human right. You’ll find that idea reflected in everything here — in our culture, our benefits and our digital tools. By welcoming as many perspectives as possible, we help you build a career where you feel like you belong.
