Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience in software engineering, with a focus on building distributed systems with public cloud technologies.
  • Strong understanding of Microservice Design.
  • Expertise in building backend distributed systems.
  • Experience with creating solutions using public cloud technologies and APIs.
  • Proficiency in Java is required.
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or equivalent.

  • Work with Advertising domain experts to engineer systems that can handle a variety of Ads use cases.
  • Guide and mentor engineers while advocating a culture of learning and growth.
  • Partner with leadership and peers on both technical and non-technical teams.

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.
