Job description
The Ads Engineering Project Management team at Apple is seeking a senior Engineering Program Manager to lead complex technical programs within the Ads Client Engineering organization. This role involves collaborating across teams to deliver high-quality client experiences while maintaining Apple's standards for privacy and security. The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of iOS ad client architectures and will navigate technical dependencies throughout the software development lifecycle. This position requires effective communication with both technical teams and senior leaders, as well as the ability to operate independently in ambiguous situations.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience leading complex technical programs or software initiatives across multiple engineering teams.
- Domain experience in digital advertising, ad technology, mobile monetization, or ad-serving platforms.
- Background in client-side or on-device software engineering, specifically iOS, mobile SDKs, or client frameworks.
- Strong understanding of software development lifecycles, system architecture, and technical dependencies.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills with technical teams and senior leaders.
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
Responsibilities
- Lead complex technical programs across the Ads Client Engineering organization.
- Develop a strong understanding of iOS ad client architectures, SDKs, and ad-serving systems.
- Work closely with engineers and architects throughout the software development lifecycle.
- Help teams navigate technical dependencies, tradeoffs, risks, and iOS release requirements.
- Drive execution of ambiguous, cross-functional programs to measurable outcomes.
Benefits
- Employees at Apple are often offered comprehensive benefits that support physical and mental well-being—flexible medical plans, confidential counseling, onsite wellness centers at major campuses, and resources for fitness and daily life. Families typically receive fertility support, paid parental leave with gradual return, caregiving leave, and dependent-care guidance, while financial perks commonly include stock grants (with purchase discounts), 401(k) matching, and income-protection coverage. Employees also see robust time off, Apple University learning and tuition reimbursement, donation matching and paid volunteer hours, and deep product and partner discounts.
