  • 5+ years of experience in building enterprise platforms facilitating large-scale management of dynamic cloud resources.
  • 5+ years of extensive professional experience with the Go programming language.
  • 5+ years of experience with at least one other modern programming language such as Swift, TypeScript, or Python.
  • 5+ years of writing high-quality, reliable code, including unit and integration tests, and maintaining clear and concise documentation.
  • 5+ years of experience with Terraform or Pulumi or equivalent IaC tools.
  • BS, MS or PhD in Computer Science, or equivalent experience.
  • In-depth understanding of infrastructure provisioning, cloud security, and cost management in public cloud environments such as AWS, GCP, or Azure.
  • Understanding and practical experience with HTTP, DNS, RPC frameworks, databases, and operating systems.
  • Experience in designing, implementing, and managing systems that provide self-service and self-healing capabilities.
  • Familiarity with or willingness to learn other modern programming languages.

Responsibilities

  • Own and deliver key components in a new cloud platform.
  • Implement Terraform or Pulumi providers and work on code generation systems.
  • Design reference architectures in code and build user-facing backend services.
  • Collaborate closely with engineering teams and internal stakeholders.
  • Drive the evolution of features and enhancements based on team needs.
  • Maintain an exceptional standard for critical facets of infrastructure.
  • Integrate open source tools with Apple's ecosystem to deliver robust solutions.

  • 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.
