Job Description
Summary
The people here at Apple don’t just build products — they craft the kind of wonder that’s revolutionised entire industries. It’s the diversity of those people and their ideas that encourages the innovation that runs through everything we do, from amazing technology to industry-leading environmental efforts.
The CoreOS Software Build & Integration team is working to take the integration, build, and test process of the low-level components of iOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS to the next level — think kernel and low-level libraries. We don’t have all of the answers on how to do that yet, perhaps you do?
As a leader, your role focuses on empowering build engineers to influence new feature integration into Apple software, by collaborating with engineers across CoreOS. You will also be engaged with functions across the organization to shape the future of what it means to be a build engineer and how we can further scale Apple’s build operations. Imagine what we could do together for the future of Apple’s software. We are responsible for integrating, building, and validating nearly a quarter of all changes that go into our OS releases that affect 1 billion+ customers, so this isn’t just a theoretical exercise!
