Summary

Our team is on a mission to build innovative infrastructure and tools to help other engineers be more productive and make software easier to create, build and distribute. We believe that streamlining software engineering is an important part of unlocking developer creativity and innovation, and we love it when Apple customers see that in the products we ship. We are looking for distributed systems engineers to join our efforts. You will be developing novel distributed architectures, products and services to accelerate software build, test and deployment. If you enjoy working on distributed systems, then we have many exciting problems for you to work on! We believe that every engineer brings unique skills and perspectives. Far more than any specific experience or skill, we are looking for engineers who want to build great reliable software and services, learn and develop their skills, and ultimately enable others to develop amazing applications. You will join a small, tight-knit group of engineers who build exciting new technology, and have fun while doing so.

Description

We are looking for technically hands-on engineers who want to ship high-performance distributed systems that solve real-world problems at Apple scale. You would join a team of engineers who build innovative storage and backend service while tackling interesting challenges in a supportive, balanced environment.

We spend most of our time building software and automation, but equally important is the work we do collaborating with teams across Apple, understanding their operational challenges, and iterating on scalable, long-term solutions together.

In your role as an engineer on our team you will:

• Engineer distributed services, tooling, and operational standards
• Collaborate with teams to refine requirements and implement lasting solutions
• Drive service scalability, resiliency, and performance
• Take ownership over components critical to Apple's success
• Optimize system performance through algorithm design and testing
• Scale services to ever-increasing problem sizes
• Improve service operability using metrics and log data

Here you’ll find that we:

• Have a wide range of experience, from new engineers to Apple veterans
• Provide a professional, engaging and flexible work environment
• Have an encouraging and growth-focused workplace culture
• Encourage you to use accrued vacation time and maintain a healthy work-life balance

Minimum Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience

• Experience with building and operating distributed storage.

• Familiarity with some large infrastructure systems like Kubernetes.

• Strong interest in distributed systems, observability, reliability, and cloud services.

• Ability to efficiently develop, debug, and support new technologies in a changing environment.

• Experience with high-performance, strongly typed languages such as Go, Rust, Scala, or others.

Preferred Qualifications

• Familiarity with application and service monitoring tools and techniques.

• Experience with incident management and response.

• Education & Experience: BS in Computer Science or equivalent, related experience.
