Job description
This role is a software engineering position within Apple's Information Systems and Technology (IS&T) organization, specifically in the Infrastructure Services team. The team focuses on building systems that enhance the fault-tolerance of Apple's hyper-scale cloud network. Engineers will tackle complex challenges related to distributed systems and automated remediation of network failures. Candidates should have a strong technical foundation and a passion for solving real-world problems at scale.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
- 4 to 6+ years of professional software engineering experience designing, building, and operating production-grade distributed systems and backend infrastructure.
- Deep foundation in computer science fundamentals, including distributed systems architecture, concurrency models, graph algorithms, and systems design.
- Strong proficiency in at least one systems-level or high-performance language, such as Go, C++, Rust, or Python.
- Direct experience designing and building fault-tolerant mechanisms, including automated self-healing and active remediation.
Responsibilities
- Design and build systems that detect and remediate network failures automatically.
- Develop mechanisms to identify anomalies and localize root causes in real time.
- Automate remediation actions on live production infrastructure while minimizing risk.
- Model complex failure domains and reason about system behavior under extreme load.
- Translate academic research and state-of-the-art resilience concepts into production systems.
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.
