Battery Reliability Engineer

Are you a deeply curious technologist driven by hard problems and meaningful impact Apples Battery Module Reliability Group is seeking an exceptional engineer to help shape the dependability of the very products millions of people rely on every this role youll be at the forefront of battery technology partnering with world-class design teams to anticipate failure before it happens push the boundaries of stress testing methodology and champion the enduring quality our customers expect from Apple. If you thrive at the intersection of rigorous science and real-world product impact we want to hear from you.n

As a Battery Reliability Engineer you will be a critical voice in the product development lifecycle identifying high-risk failure modes early and driving design teams toward robust reliable solutions before they reach battery production. You will pioneer new stress conditions grounded in physics-of-failure principles and authentic use-case modeling then translate those insights into the equipment infrastructure and specifications needed to validate product reliability at
