Imagine what you could do here. At Apple, great ideas have a way of becoming great products, services, and customer experiences very quickly. Bring passion and dedication to your job and there’s no telling what you could accomplish. As part of Apple Services Engineering, our team is responsible for building libraries and frameworks which form the foundations of mission-critical systems at Apple. We write software in the Swift programming language and specialize in frameworks for highly available distributed systems. We firmly believe in growing a strong community and many of the frameworks and libraries we produce will become part of the Swift open source ecosystem.
Job Description
You will work and contribute towards the engineering of Swift on Server by growing a team that creates and maintains some of the foundational libraries in the open source ecosystem. You will work with world-class teams across the company who have a real passion for engineering and delivering features. Because we are a small team with high visibility, the opportunities for you to make an impact are boundless. Swift is used throughout the company, including in Private Cloud Compute, a groundbreaking cloud intelligence system designed specifically for private AI processing. Our work on Swift on Server is strongly influenced by the needs of large scale services at Apple using Swift, so while you will not build these services directly, you will learn how they work and identify the best solutions. You will have an eye on software trends in the industry to decide how our work fits within the ecosystem. You should be deeply motivated, driven, and should feel a personal stake in the services we are responsible for. You have the ability to juggle multiple priorities and handle uncertainty. You should have excellent communication skills and the ability to build positive relationships with the people you work with. You should be prepared to deliver high quality results, and your success will be measured by the quality, size and timeliness of the work you're doing.
