Here, you’ll do more than join something — you’ll add something.

Would you like to work in a fast-paced environment where your technical abilities will be challenged on a day-to-day basis? If so, Apple's Artificial Intelligence and Data Platforms (AiDP) team is seeking an expert Software Engineer to build high-quality, scalable, and resilient distributed systems that power Apple's cloud analytics platforms and data pipelines. Apple's Enterprise Data Warehouse landscape caters to a wide variety of real-time, near real-time, and batch analytical solutions. These solutions are an integral part of business functions like Sales, Operations, Finance, AppleCare, Marketing, and Internet Services, enabling business drivers to make critical decisions.

We use proprietary and open-source technologies, including Kafka, Spark, Iceberg, Airflow, and Presto. If you are looking to tackle infrastructure problems at scale, both on-prem or in the cloud, focusing on ease of use, ease of maintenance, and most importantly, implementing solutions that are scalable, you will have fun in AiDP!

If you enjoy learning new technologies, solving challenges with little mentorship, and are comfortable proposing and implementing solutions while demonstrating Software Engineering standard methodologies, you will find it exciting to work in AiDP! The ideal candidate for this position will be able to think outside the box and should have a passion for building engineering solutions to enable businesses in making time-sensitive and critical decisions.

Description

We engineer high-quality, scalable, and resilient distributed systems on the cloud that power data exploration, analytics, reporting, and production models. Our core systems are diverse and come with an unusual intersection of high data volumes with systems distributed across cloud and on-premise infrastructure.

On our team, you will build solutions that integrate open-source software with Apple’s internal ecosystem. You will drive the development of new components and features from concept to release: design, build, test, and ship at a regular cadence. You will work closely with internal customers to understand their requirements and workflows and propose new features and ecosystem changes to streamline their experience of using the solutions on our platform.

This is a hard-core software engineering role, where a large part of an engineer's time is spent writing code and designing/developing applications on the cloud, with the remainder being spent on tuning and debugging the codebase, supporting production applications, and assisting our application end users. This role requires in-depth knowledge of cutting-edge technologies and cloud data platforms with an aptitude to independently learn new technologies and contribute to the success of various initiatives.

We are looking for a hardworking and passionate person to join this amazing team. If you feel this is you, we'd love to hear from you.
