Accessory Product Design Engineer

Apple is a place where people come to do the best work of their lives. We obsess over the details to make products that surprise and delight. As a member of a multi-functional design team at Apple you will help to create the next generation of the worlds finest devices. You will conceive design and bring into life products that will redefine the user accessories Product Design team works across a variety of product categories within Apple. We are a dynamic group that tackles new projects and helps guide them from early architecture explorations all the way through mass production. You will collaborate with a wide assortment of cross-functionals teams to create and refine new designs overcome technical challenges and produce incredible products.

We are looking to add a highly motivated Product Design engineer to the team. This role is for someone with strong mechanical design fundamentals an ability to closely collaborate with cross-functional teams and excellent communication skills. The role will require the ability to deliver outstanding design solutions while balancing multiple priorities on demanding addition to the design of parts and assemblies in CAD you will be responsible for building prototypes validating their performance and pursuing continual improvements. As designs mature you will also work with vendors and contract manufacturers to implement and optimize your designs at scale.
