Summary

The people here at Apple don’t just build products — they craft the kind of wonder that’s revolutionised entire industries. It’s the diversity of those people and their ideas that encourages the innovation that runs through everything we do, from amazing technology to industry-leading environmental efforts. We are working to take the integration, build, and test process of the low-level components of iOS, macOS, watchOS and tvOS to the next level (think kernel and low-level libraries). We don’t have all of the answers on how to do that yet, but we are continuously learning and experimenting in order to develop the best solutions by exploring, measuring, and trying new things. We are responsible for integrating, building, and validating nearly a quarter of all changes that go into our OS releases that affect 1 billion+ customers, so this isn’t just a theoretical exercise. We won’t be satisfied with anything less than outstanding. The Software Build & Integration team is at core of how we create and iterate on this experience day to day at Apple. We are responsible for delivering the state-of-the-art operating systems and applications to Apple customers. As a leader, your role focuses on empowering build engineers to influence new feature integration into Apple software, by collaborating with engineers from Software, Hardware, Localization, QA, and Project Management teams. You will also be engaged with functions across the organization to shape the future of what it means to be a build engineer and how we can further scale Apple’s build operations. Imagine what we could do together for the future of Apple’s software.
