System Engineering Program Manager (EPM) - Vision Products

Apple is where individual imaginations gather together, committing to the values that lead to great work. Every new product we build, service we create, or Apple Store experience we deliver is the result of us making each other’s ideas stronger. That happens because every one of us shares a belief that we can make something wonderful and share it with the world, changing lives for the better. It’s the diversity of our people and their thinking that inspires the innovation that runs through everything we do. When we bring everybody in, we can do the best work of our lives. Here, you’ll do more than join something — you’ll add something.

Apple Vision Pro is a revolutionary spatial computer that seamlessly blends digital content with your physical space. It will allow us to do the things we love in ways never before possible — all while staying connected to the people around us.

We are looking for an experienced, highly technical EPM to join the team driving product definition, system engineering and integration/validation of a new product category. If you have broad experience across various key hardware enablers (e.g displays, cameras, sensors, wearables), a strong product/customer focus, experience guiding complex programs through the entire development process, and the ability to distill tradeoffs down to key factors and drive critical product decisions we’d love to hear from you.

As a System EPM, you will work closely with system engineering, electrical, mechanical, algorithm and software teams in VPG and across the company to define and develop highly optimized hardware products. You will be responsible for:

Driving the cross-functional development of requirements and validation plan at product, system and module level, based on experience targets and technology constraints. Identifying the most critical questions and organizing teams to find efficient ways to get answers. Understanding the link between technical decisions for the system and customer experience and communicating impacts clearly and concisely. Driving resolution to architectural/integration gaps to feed into subsequent engineering builds.
