Display Metrology Technologist - Shanghai

Apple Apple · Big Tech · Shanghai, China · Students

This role focuses on display metrology and instrumentation development for new Apple products. Responsibilities include FMEA, defining calibration and test strategies, designing metrology systems, and using modeling, simulation, and machine learning for data-driven decisions. The role requires a BS in a relevant field, 3+ years of experience, and programming skills.

What you'd actually do

  1. Deep dive and FMEA for new display technology/architecture in prototype phase.
  2. Collaborate with cross functional teams to build end-to-end calibration and test strategy.
  3. Design corresponding metrology system with good balance of engineering requirements, development cycle time and financial budgeting.
  4. Touch every aspect of a display test system, including requirement specification, hardware/software development and audit process definition.
  5. Provide trustable report with subjective data, to help new display design convergence by revealing or even predicting hidden risks.
  6. Practice modeling, simulation and machine learning to assist data driven decision.
  7. Present progress and result in working level and executive level meeting.
