Systems Quality Engineer Accessory Ecosystem

Customers plug an accessory into an Apple product and expect it to just work. We find the problems customers would have run into before they do. Our team validates that experience between Apple products like iPhone iPad and Mac and the accessories and power sources customers rely work will impact several of Apples product lines and a wide range of accessories customers connect to them. Were looking for a hands-on engineer who will own the quality of their projects who isnt afraid to speak up when they believe an approach is wrong or a product isnt ready and who wants the tooling they build to expand what the whole team can join our team!

On your projects youll own the quality of how Apple devices accessories and power sources interact from early prototypes through release and partner teams will come to you on them. Much of that is automation and the coverage you build outlasts the project.

Own the quality of your projects you write the test plan see the testing through and hold the sign-offnRepresent quality and risks to leadership and cross-functional partners backed by telemetry and statistical analysis to show customer impactnTake failures (e.g. functional interop power) from investigation to closure with the teams that own the fixesnAdvance the teams test automation and analysis toolingnReview the teams automation and flag what wont scale so coverage stays maintainable as it grows

Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering Computer Science or a related fieldn3 years of industry experience developing test automation or analysis tooling in Python or C/CnExperience with QA methodology test planning and execution for hardware or consumer electronics productsnExperience with hardware protocol-level validation or firmware validation (e.g. USB PCIe I2C SPI)nClear written and verbal communication skills

Experience reviewing others code and guiding less-experienced engineers on design and qualitynUnderstanding of USB-PD power negotiation Type-C specifications and port controller firmware behaviornExperience using AI tooling to move faster on automation and analysis with the judgment to catch where its output is wrongnExperience finding the issues that matter before release and quantifying their customer impact
