Computational Designers: Industrial Design Group

Job description

Apple’s Industrial Design Group is seeking Computational Designers who thrive in an environment of exploration, iteration, and close collaboration. You will work with Industrial Designers, Human Factors researchers, and Digital Sculptors to translate complex, multidimensional data into sophisticated frameworks. Your work will inform data-driven design solutions that help shape how Apple’s products look and function. The role involves bridging aesthetics, engineering, and human-centered insights through algorithmic modeling and data-driven design strategies. You will integrate large datasets — such as biomechanics research or advanced manufacturing constraints — into functional, elegant design solutions. We value the ability to explore, iterate, and communicate clearly with cross functional teams. We encourage candidates of all experience levels to apply. h3 Minimum Qualifications /h3 Demonstrated understanding of computational and parametric design principles. Proficiency in Grasshopper and Rhino; experience with Python, C#, or other scripting languages is a plus. Excellent problem-solving skills with the perseverance to tackle open-ended, ambiguous challenges. Exceptional communication skills with proficiency in English, enabling clear articulation of complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences. h3 Preferred Qualifications /h3 Proven ability to incorporate diverse data sets (e.g., human factors research, biomechanical metrics, and engineering constraints) into computational models. Skilled at creating adaptable…
