Role Number:200690378-1731
Imagine what you could do here. At Apple, new ideas have a way of becoming extraordinary products very quickly. Bring your passion and curiosity, and there's no telling what you could accomplish. Do you love working on challenges that no one has solved yet? Join us to help deliver the next groundbreaking Apple product!
The Cellular Baseband DV team in Munich verifies the modems and transceiver link controllers that keep millions of people connected, wherever they are. As an intern, you'll be at the centre of a chip design effort, working with architects and designers to make sure that when someone's call, stream or message goes through, it just works.
Description
As a Design Verification Intern, you'll be part of our silicon design group's verification efforts, helping ensure the quality and reliability of next-generation cellular systems. Working on baseband modems and RF link controllers for Apple's SoCs, you'll contribute to reusable UVM verification environments and help develop coverage-driven and directed test cases that validate complex IP and subsystem designs. You'll work closely with multi-functional teams and receive hands-on mentorship throughout the internship.
This internship offers an opportunity to build expertise in cellular protocols, complex IP and subsystem architectures, fabric protocols, and debug methodologies. You'll gain experience with best-in-class design verification practices, co-verification techniques with models and firmware, and industry-standard low-power architectures. You'll also explore how LLMs and ML-based tools can improve verification productivity.
We're looking for motivated students with a strong foundation in digital design and programming, and an interest in ASIC design verification. You thrive in collaborative environments, pay attention to detail, and are eager to take on the verification challenges of complex, high-performance cellular systems.
Responsibilities
- Contribute to detailed test plans for components of the design, including use cases, in collaboration with multi-functional teams.
- Help create coverage-driven verification plans from specifications and work to achieve coverage targets.
- Develop components of UVM-based, reusable testbenches, such as stimulus, checkers, VIPs and reference models.
- Implement tests from RTL simulation bring-up onwards; report and debug failures.
- Run regressions and report verification progress against test plans and coverage metrics.
- Build Python-based automation to improve team productivity.
- Explore the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) and ML-driven workflows to improve the efficiency and quality of verification.
- Document your work and present your results to the team at the end of the internship.
Minimum Qualifications
- Currently enrolled in Masters in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Communications Engineering or a related field.
- Knowledge of digital design fundamentals and SystemVerilog / Verilog.
- Programming experience in C/C++ and/or Python.
- Understanding of verification concepts such as constrained-random testing and coverage-driven verification.
- Test planning and problem-solving skills.
- Fluent in English (written and verbal).
Preferred Qualifications
- Knowledge of UVM and SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA).
- Experience with SystemC and C/C++ modeling for design verification.
- Python or Perl scripting and automation experience.
- Knowledge of 4G/5G cellular physical layer operation (3GPP).
- Familiarity with bus fabrics and protocols such as AHB, AXI or NoC.
- Familiarity with embedded processor cores.
- Experience using LLMs to improve productivity, including prompt engineering and LLM workflow optimization.
At Apple, we're not all the same. And that's our greatest strength. We draw on the differences in who we are, what we've experienced, and how we think. Because to create products that serve everyone, we believe in including everyone. Therefore, we are committed to treating all applicants fairly and equally. We will work with applicants to make any reasonable accommodations.
At Apple, we believe accessibility is a fundamental human right. You’ll find that idea reflected in everything here — in our culture, our benefits and our digital tools. By welcoming as many perspectives as possible, we help you build a career where you feel like you belong.
