Apple is seeking a System EE for iMac electrical & system design integration. The candidate will design, implement, test, and debug the electrical subsystem of the world’s best all-in-one computers within a collaborative cross-functional team, working with mechanical engineering, software, silicon engineering, and other module teams such as wireless, camera, sensing, and display. Our engineers rely on skills in computer system architecture, schematic design, digital and analog circuits, power and voltage regulator integration, high speed signal integrity concepts, PCB design, bring up and system level troubleshooting to surprise and delight millions of customers.
ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Day to day tasks involve electrical design (both schematic capture and PCB layout), simulation, bringup, debug, and validation for Macs. EE’s are responsible for both schematic capture and coordinating layout of highly constrained multilayer PCBs including HDI and fine pitch BGAs. Routine responsibilities also include bring-up, validation, factory build support, and multi-disciplinary cross-functional collaboration and negotiation. We are looking for well-rounded candidates with a broad set of skill and interests, and the curiosity to dig deep wherever necessary to solve challenging problems. Opportunities exist to sample a variety of technology areas, and to remain general or specialize over time, developing domain expertise.

-
Working knowledge of design and validation requirements for common low-speed and high-speed digital interfaces: I2C/SMBus, SPMI, SPI, JTAG, I2S/TDM, USB, MIPI, PCIe, DisplayPort, Thunderbolt.
-
Experience in circuit design for a variety of domains including power, digital, analog, high-speed communications, programmable logic, and/or wireless.
-
Excellent written and verbal communication/presentation skills.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
-
Schematic capture and constraint-driven PCB layout using Cadence tools or similar.
-
Experience with PCB bringup and debug, including new or custom silicon, using standard EE lab equipment: Soldering, DMM, Oscilloscope, Logic Analyzer, Spectrum Analyzer.
-
Experience with complex data analysis, data visualization and script development.
-
Beyond technical aptitude, we prize curiosity, creativity, integrity, leadership, teamwork, and a passion for learning.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding TN Visa Sponsorship as a Systems Integration Specialist
Frame your credentials around TN-qualifying job titles
For TN visa sponsorship, your resume title and job offer must align with the Computer Systems Analyst classification to match your professional credentials. A mismatch between your job title and your actual role responsibilities is one of the most common issues that can delay the sponsorship process when you present your case at the port of entry or consulate.
Target employers with recent visa filing experience
Companies with recent visa filings for Computer Systems Analyst roles already understand the sponsorship process. Searching Migrate Mate by occupation lets you identify which employers are experienced with visa sponsorship and may be open to supporting TN candidates in similar technical roles.
Search TN-specific roles using Migrate Mate
Migrate Mate filters job listings by TN visa eligibility, so you can find Systems Integration Specialist openings where sponsorship is already built into the hiring process rather than negotiating it after an offer.
Prepare documentation proving specialty occupation scope
Your CBP officer or consular officer must see that the role requires theoretical and applied computer systems knowledge, not just general IT support. Bring the job offer letter, your degree certificate, and a brief description of integration projects you'll lead.
Clarify Mexican TN cap timing with your employer early
Mexico's annual TN allocation is capped, so consular appointment availability can vary by season. Raising this with your hiring manager during the offer stage prevents surprises if consulate scheduling extends your start date by several weeks.
Negotiate employer-paid legal and filing costs before signing
The employer typically covers the cost of preparing your TN support letter, though attorney fees for documentation review are often negotiable. Confirming who covers preparation costs in your offer letter protects you from unexpected out-of-pocket expenses before day one.
Systems Integration Specialist TN Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Systems Integration Specialist role qualify for TN visa status?
Yes, if the role is classified under the Computer Systems Analyst occupation as defined by the USMCA treaty. The position must require applying theoretical and applied computer science knowledge to integrate hardware, software, or networked systems. A general IT coordinator title without a clear systems analysis scope can be problematic, so the job offer letter should describe the analytical and technical integration work explicitly.
How does TN compare to H-1B for Systems Integration Specialist roles?
TN has no annual lottery and no cap for Canadian citizens, so you can start the process and enter the U.S. within days of receiving a qualifying offer rather than waiting for an April registration window. H-1B visa requires USCIS petition approval and, for most applicants, lottery selection. The trade-off is that TN does not allow dual intent, meaning you cannot simultaneously pursue permanent residency through most employment-based green card categories while holding TN status without risk.
What documents does my employer need to prepare for TN sponsorship?
The employer must provide a signed offer letter on company letterhead that describes your role, confirms it meets the Computer Systems Analyst occupation definition, states your salary, and specifies the duration of employment. For Canadian citizens, you present the offer letter directly at the U.S. border or port of entry to CBP. For Mexican citizens, the employer provides a support letter, and you submit your application at a U.S. consulate. No federal filing or government certification is required before your TN application.
Where can I find Systems Integration Specialist jobs that already offer TN sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for TN visa job seekers and filters listings by visa eligibility, so you can search for Systems Integration Specialist openings where sponsorship is part of the role rather than a conversation you have to start from scratch with a recruiter who may not know the TN process.
Can I renew TN status indefinitely while working as a Systems Integration Specialist?
TN status can be renewed in three-year increments without a cap on the number of renewals, as long as you maintain a qualifying job offer and the role continues to meet the Computer Systems Analyst occupation criteria. USCIS processes TN extensions by petition if you're already in the U.S., or you can renew at a port of entry or consulate if your circumstances allow re-entry.
