At Apple, new ideas have a way of becoming phenomenal products, services, and customer experiences very quickly. You bring passion, and dedication to your job and there is no telling what you could accomplish.
The Creativity Apps team is looking for a senior engineer with expertise in Apple platforms to help architect and build media management and collaboration features for creative tools. You’ll be working with the world-class teams behind Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Pixelmator Pro and iWork to create next-generation tools for creators.
This is a rare chance to join a new engineering team early and help define important work at Apple in the creative space. As a senior engineer and technical leader, you'll set the architecture and technical direction for what we build.
You'll work closely with Human Interface designers, Quality Assurance, and cross-functional partners across Apple. Your influence will go well beyond code. You'll help shape product decisions, the user experience, and project planning. You'll lead complex features from concept through launch, make key architectural decisions, raise the bar on engineering quality, and mentor other engineers. Your work will make a real difference for the people who use it.
The ideal candidate has deep expertise in iOS and Apple platform development, cloud technologies, and a track record of shipping high-quality products at scale. You care about building software that lasts, and you hold yourself and those around you to Apple's high standards for craftsmanship, performance, reliability, and privacy. You're self-directed, you communicate clearly, and you build trust and alignment with people at every level of the organization.
