Job description

The Creativity Apps team at Apple is seeking an engineer with expertise in Apple platforms to develop media management and collaboration features for creative tools. This role involves working alongside teams responsible for Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, and iWork to create innovative tools for creators. The engineer will set the direction and architecture for new collaborative features while collaborating with designers and quality assurance teams. The position is ideal for a self-motivated individual who values sustainable software development and effective collaboration.

Requirements

  • 2+ years of proven experience shipping high quality, tested code on iOS and/or macOS.
  • Strong understanding of architectural patterns commonly used in programming for Apple platforms.
  • Solid grasp of computer science fundamentals and object-oriented design.
  • Strong proficiency in Swift and at least one UI framework such as SwiftUI, UIKit, or AppKit.
  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience.
  • Demonstrated interest in one of Apple's apps for creative pros and enthusiasts, such as Final Cut Pro or Logic Pro.
  • Experience with modern concurrency in Swift, including async/await and actors.
  • Proficiency with Swift Testing and/or XCTest.
  • Demonstrated commitment to accessibility and localization.

Responsibilities

  • Architect and build media management and collaboration features for creative tools.
  • Work with human interface designers and quality assurance teams to influence user interface and project planning.
  • Drive features from concept to delivery while maintaining a focus on sustainable software development.
  • Collaborate effectively with all levels of the organization.
  • Encourage an open and inclusive work environment.

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.
