About the role

Wi-Fi Quality Engineering role focusing on CoEx (Wi‑Fi/Bluetooth coexistence) testing and automation for Apple devices. Develops test plans, automates tests, analyzes logs, and collaborates across firmware, driver, Bluetooth, and system teams to ensure high-quality Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, and CoEx performance across iPhone/iPad.

Responsibilities

  • Design, execute and maintain thorough test plans for 802.11 Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 802.15 Thread, and Ultra Wideband (UWB) technologies
  • Develop and execute CoEx test plans covering concurrent Wi-Fi + Bluetooth use cases, including A2DP, HFP/eSCO, BLE, AirPods, Apple Watch, and other accessories
  • Validate 2.4 GHz and 5/6 GHz Wi-Fi performance under Bluetooth coexistence scenarios, including throughput, latency, packet loss, range, and connection stability
  • Perform Range vs. Rate (RvR), OTA, mobility, and performance testing on iPhone/iPad across different APs, channels, bandwidths, MLO configurations, and RF conditions
  • Analyze Wi-Fi/BT/RF/system logs and work cross-functionally with FW, driver, Bluetooth, and system teams to isolate and resolve CoEx issues
  • Develop and maintain automated CoEx test suites for Pre-Sub/ATP, including automated traffic generation, Bluetooth connection setup, Wi-Fi configuration, performance measurement, and result analysis
  • Integrate CoEx automation into CI/Jenkins pipelines to enable continuous regression testing and reduce manual execution
  • Define CoEx KPIs and regression criteria for new iOS releases and track performance across software builds

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
  • 3+ years of experience in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, wireless networking, mobile platforms, or wireless validation/testing
  • Experience with Python or another scripting language for test automation and data analysis
  • Strong understanding of 802.11 Wi-Fi fundamentals, including 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz, channel/bandwidth configuration, throughput, latency, packet loss, and roaming
  • Hands-on experience testing Wi-Fi and Bluetooth coexistence, including concurrent Wi-Fi + Bluetooth traffic and performance scenarios
  • Experience with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth log analysis and debugging, ability to isolate issues across software, firmware, driver, and RF layers
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including documenting reproduction steps, logs, performance data, and root-cause findings
  • Experience with AI and real world problem solving
  • Highly motivated, self-driven, ability to work independently and as part of a team
  • Exceptional problem-solving, debugging, and root-cause analysis skills
  • Strong knowledge of 802.11 Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, wireless performance, and CoEx, with hands-on OTA, RvR, mobility, and system-level validation
  • Experience developing and maintaining automation and testing tools, including Python-based frameworks and integration with AQS, ATP, CI, or Jenkins environments
  • Passion for innovation and continuous improvement, with experience leveraging Generative AI or agentic tools to improve test coverage, log analysis, root-cause analysis, and wireless validation
