Sr. Embedded Software Development Engineer, Vision Products

Role Number: 200657098-0365

Summary

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 work on defining next generation of vision products

Apple Vision Pro is a revolutionary spatial computer that seamlessly blends digital content with your physical space. It will allow us to do the things we love in ways never before possible — all while staying connected to the people around us.

Our team builds technology that defines industry standards, and therefore we seek people who thrive to innovate. Tenacity and the passion to learn are skills we value on our team. We seek a talented design engineer to work with cross-functional groups to continually push the envelope of the technology implemented in Apple products within the realm of embedded systems. If you want to impact millions of customers by working on the most advanced technology solutions, we want to talk to you.
