Job description
At Apple, new ideas have a way of becoming phenomenal products, services, and
customer experiences. Imagine what you could do here. Bring passion and
dedication to your job and there's no telling what you could accomplish.
We are a Mechanical Engineering team developing advanced consumer devices
that define the state of the art in hardware design. Our work spans the full product
development cycle — from early-stage mechanical design and systems integration
through prototyping, validation, and transition to production. We collaborate
closely with Product Design, Electrical Engineering, and System Engineering to
deliver hardware of the highest standard, where precision, reliability, and user
experience are equally paramount.
This is a student position for a driven, technically grounded individual seeking
meaningful engineering experience in a world-class hardware development
environment. The role offers direct involvement in R&D lab activities, hands-on
prototype builds, and hardware design work — alongside seasoned engineers
across multiple disciplines. The ideal candidate brings a solid foundation in
engineering, sharp problem-solving instincts, and the initiative to take ownership
of assigned work from the outset. As part of this role you will collaborate with the Mechanical Engineering and
Systems Integration teams, with a primary focus on the design and realization of
lab R&D setups, jigs, fixtures, and mechanical prototypes throughout the product
development cycle. Responsibilities include:
Design and fabricate jigs, fixtures, and custom test rigs for R&D, prototyping,
and assembly workflows
Build and assemble mechanical prototypes and lab setups to specification,
with rigorous attention to fit, alignment, and tolerance
Support mechanical integration of PCBs, optical sensors, and other hardware components into assemblies and experimental setups
Contribute to the design of mechanical components and assemblies, with emphasis on functionality, durability, and manufacturability
Participate in design reviews and contribute structured feedback from prototype builds and lab evaluations
Support lab operations, including inventory management, equipment
maintenance, and test data logging
