# Digital ASIC Architect

Define the digital architecture behind Apple's next generation of motion-aware experiences. The Motion Sensing Hardware organization designs the IMUs, magnetometers, pressure sensors, and other sensing ASICs that enable spatial computing, gesture input, head-tracked audio, and crash and fall detection across iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, AirPods, and Vision Pro. The architectures and hardware our team invents are what become the features customers feel first. If you want to set the direction for what motion sensing on Apple products can do, this is your team. Description As a Digital ASIC Architect on the Motion Sensing Hardware team, you will own the digital architecture of motion sensing ASICs from concept through silicon, with the goal of delivering best-in-class sensing experiences across Apple's product line. You will analyze the application, then define cost and power optimized digital systems built around one or more processors, DSP cores, and custom control engines. You will translate high-level user and product requirements into a realizable system, build the high-level models that prove out the architecture, and author the detailed specifications that drive the rest of the I
