About this role

RF Systems Architect - Control Algorithms Waltham, United States of America At Apple, our work is dedicated to creating products that connect and enrich people's lives. The Cellular RF Systems Engineering team sits at the very core of that mission, defining the wireless technologies that enable seamless experiences for hundreds of millions of users worldwide. We are looking for a passionate engineer to design the intelligent control algorithms that orchestrate our RF Front-End hardware. By translating complex 5G and 6G use cases into optimized RF hardware control strategies, you will directly balance RF performance, power consumption, and thermal limits to deliver a world-class wireless experience. In this role, you will be responsible for the optimal interaction between our RF transceivers and RF Front-End modules. Your primary focus will be breaking down advanced cellular capabilities, such as SRS antenna switching, MIMO and Multi-SIM, into clear system requirements and concrete control flows. This is a highly collaborative role where you will partner with diverse engineering teams across the entire cellular stack to bring these cutting-edge concepts into our next-generation cellular products. Analyze complex cellular radio access use cases and specify the required RF hardware control algorithms. Develop optimization strategies that maximize RF performance and hardware utilization for demanding scenarios like multi-SIM. Author comprehensive system architecture specifications to guide design, implementation, and validation teams. Drive end-to-end system performance by collaborating tightly with baseband, SoC, RF firmware, and RF hardware teams. Validate system architectures and algorithms through rigorous simulation and automated requirements analysis. Minimum
