## About the Role

Are you passionate about solving hard problems in continuous delivery?, You'll help build the platform that makes this possible - from the declarative DSL developers use to describe their pipelines, to the GitOps operator that continuously reconciles desired state, to the canary analysis and phased rollout capabilities that catch regressions before they reach users.
You'll collaborate cross-functionally with teams across Apple, taking projects from design through implementation and delivery, with a bias toward simple, high-quality, developer-friendly solutions. **Minimum Qualifications** + 2+ years of relevant industry experience building and operating production software + Strong programming skills in Java, delivering high-quality, large-scale services + Solid foundation in software architecture, system design, and problem solving + Hands-on experience with distributed systems and cloud architecture (e.g., Cassandra, Kafka, Redis) + Experience designing and building REST, gRPC, and/or GraphQL APIs + Solid understanding of micro-services and cloud-native application patterns + Ability to work across the full lifecycle of a service - API design, implementation, testing, and operations + Hands-on experience with service deployment + BS or MS in Computer Science or a related technical field **Preferred Qualifications** + Experience with
containers and container orchestration (Kubernetes, Docker) + Experience with cloud-native deployment technologies (e.g., Spinnaker, Helm, Argo CD) + Familiarity with GitOps and declarative, continuous delivery concepts + Experience with public cloud providers (e.g., AWS, GCP) + Familiarity with infrastructure as code (e.g.
Terrarform, Ansible) + Some exposure to AI-powered tooling for CI/CD, deployments, or operations (e.g., automated root cause analysis) + Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders + Self-motivated and well-organized, with a demonstrated ability to take ownership and drive ambiguous projects to completion Apple is an equal opportunity employer that is committed to inclusion and diversity.
