Apple's Strategic Data Solutions team is looking for an engineering program manager to support the SDS Software Engineering group. This role focuses on managing engineering work that aligns with long-term strategic goals while coordinating with various stakeholders. The ideal candidate will thrive in a complex technical environment and will be responsible for driving impactful programs.

  • BS in any analytical, quantitative, or technical field such as engineering, math, computer science, finance, analytics, or statistics.
  • 10 years of experience structuring and leading large, cross-functional, technical or analytical projects/programs.
  • Proven ability to drive change through positive influence of co-workers, leadership, and business partners.
  • Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to connect and develop close relationships across SDS and partner team senior leadership.
  • Clear, confident communicator who can adapt between technical detail and VP storytelling.

Responsibilities

  • Establish strategy and drive prioritization of engineering work in alignment with long-term roadmap vision.
  • Communicate strategy, success metrics, and progress to both technical teams and up to VPs.
  • Lead programs from inception through delivery and ongoing monitoring.
  • Build and maintain relationships across SDS and partner team senior leadership.
  • Drive opportunities for process improvements.
  • Manage and propose business-critical metrics in close partnership with technical teams.
  • Preempt and mitigate business and technical risks.
  • Operate with full autonomy, exercising sound judgment.

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.
