Laser Component Engineer

Why ApplennWe live in a mobile and device-driven world where knowledge of the physical world around us is needed. We rely on this knowledge to get around to learn about our environment and to enable spectacular new features for custom applications. Apple is meeting those needs as robustly and as creatively as possible and is interested in people who want to help meet that commitment. The success we are striving for will be the result of very skilled people working in an environment which cultivates creativity partnership and thinking of old problems in new ways. If that sounds like the kind of environment that you find intriguing then lets elements come together to make Apple an amazing environment for motivated people to do the greatest work of their lives. You will become part of a team that sets the standard in fostering excellence creativity and innovation. Will you help us design the next generation of revolutionary Apple productsnnThe Laser Engineering Team in Camera Semiconductor Devices (CSD) team is responsible for all research design development test and qualification of core laser technologies being used in Face ID and LIDAR scanner for Apple products. As a key member of the Laser Engineering Team you will be responsible for leading the laser component development by transforming the laser design concept into laser products ready for high-volume mass production.
