Job description

The Storage SRE team at Apple Cloud is responsible for building and managing next-generation distributed storage systems that support critical Apple services. This role requires a deep understanding of storage, data analysis, and Linux system internals. As a member of the Elastic Disk SRE team, you will have significant individual responsibility and influence over the platform's direction. Your work will impact millions of users and contribute to the success of key Apple features.

Requirements

  • 4+ years of experience in building, operating, and scaling distributed storage systems in a cloud environment.
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as Go, Java, Python, or Rust.
  • Strong understanding of block, object, and file storage solutions in Linux.
  • Knowledge of Linux internals, networking protocols, and distributed systems.
  • Experience with provisioning, data migration, backup and recovery, and disaster recovery.

Responsibilities

  • Take ownership of projects and deliverables while crafting solutions.
  • Provide technical feedback to colleagues to assist in project delivery.
  • Drive technical standards across the team in collaboration with senior members.
  • Handle alerts and critical issues as part of an on-call rota.
  • Automate manual operations and improve processes through iteration.

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.
