At Apple, we tackle large-scale engineering challenges to deliver products that are intuitive, reliable, and built to last. Our engineering teams operate at the intersection of CI systems, software architecture, data analytics, build engineering, and developer tooling - owning the systems and workflows that enable complex, large-scale projects to move fast, scale, and ship with confidence. As a Systems Software Developer, you will work closely with cross-functional teams to understand the project goals and develop systematic solutions, workflows, and approaches to achieve those goals. This would include contributing to projects in low-level software and algorithms, building CI/CD pipelines and workflows, and developing infrastructure and tooling to help deliver innovative Apple technologies and products.Design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines and automated workflows with a focus on reliability, traceability, and data analytics. Develop instrumentation and reporting systems that surface build health, test failure trends, and developer productivity metrics. Debug and resolve failures across build, test, and deployment infrastructure; improve signal-to-noise across CI reporting. Identify and drive adoption of AI-assisted and agentic workflows to accelerate development and validation cycles Collaborate with engineering teams to inform project structure, dependency architecture, and build/test capabilities Build and maintain internal tools and APIs that integrate with Apples engineering stack, including Xcode and Swift-based workflows Partner with cross-functional teams to translate system requirements into robust, maintainable infrastructure, processes, and workflowsBS and a minimum of 3 years relevant industry experience 3+ years of experience designing, building, and maintaining production software systems and applications Experience building or maintaining CI/CD pipelines and automated build or test workflows Experience working with relational databases such as PostgreSQL in production environmentsExperience developing large-scale internal APIs or developer-facing tooling Proficiency in Python and shell scripting to build automation and workflow tooling Experience with technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes Experience with CI platforms such as Jenkins, Buildkite, or equivalent systems Experience developing with Swift, Xcode, or other Apple platform technologies Familiarity with software observability, metrics systems, or developer productivity analytics Experience working across multiple concurrent projects in a fast-paced, cross-functional engineering environment Demonstrated ability to communicate technical concepts and project plans clearly across engineering and non-engineering stakeholders Experience with Xcode and CMake are a bonus Experience with computer vision, video processing, and/or machine learning data infrastructure is a bonus
We’re a diverse collection of thinkers and doers, continually reimagining what’s possible to help us all do what we love in new ways. The people who work here have reinvented entire industries with the Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, as well as with services, including iTunes, the App Store, Apple Music, and Apple Pay. And the same passion for innovation that goes into our products also applies to our practices — strengthening our commitment to leave the world better than we found it.
There’s a place here for every kind of brilliant. Everyone here is an innovator, or an innovator-to-be, no matter what your team or your role. So bring your passion, courage, and original thinking and get ready to share it, because every new product, service, or feature we invent is the result of people working together to make each others’ ideas stronger. Innovation at this level depends on people who represent the variety of the human experience and inspire us with their own fresh perspectives. Together, we’ll do amazing work that can make a difference in people’s lives. Including your own. Learn more about working at Apple.
