TL;DR · CI Systems Engineer (AI Failure Analysis), Developer Workflows

As a CI Systems Engineer at Apple's Software Developer Workflows team, you will join a dynamic group dedicated to enhancing developer efficiency through advanced AI integration. Your primary responsibilities include designing intelligent systems that transform raw continuous integration data into actionable insights for developers, enabling them to diagnose and resolve issues more effectively. You will develop AI-powered triage workflows, optimize data structures for efficient storage and querying of CI results, and collaborate with OS engineering teams to refine failure analysis capabilities. Essential skills include proficiency in languages like Swift, Scala, Python, or Go, experience with AI/ML applications in software development, and a strong background in handling large-scale data systems. This role demands expertise in machine learning techniques for anomaly detection and pattern recognition, as well as the ability to drive performance improvements and enhance observability within CI infrastructure.

What you'll do

  • Develop AI-assisted systems to transform CI data into actionable insights for developers.
  • Design AI-powered triage workflows that summarize failures and identify patterns across large datasets.
  • Build tools providing structured access to CI data for intelligent querying and analysis by AI systems.
  • Optimize data structures and database design for efficient storage and deduplication of build and test failures.
  • Implement observability and alerting for CI results infrastructure to ensure reliability and detect systemic issues.
  • Evaluate and iterate on AI approaches, measuring their effectiveness in reducing triage time and improving developer experience.

What we're looking for

  • 8+ years of software engineering experience with a focus on CI infrastructure, data systems, or failure analysis
  • Experience applying AI/ML or LLM-based approaches to software development workflows, tooling, or automation
  • Proficiency in at least one language suitable for systems and data work (Swift, Scala, Python, Go, C/C++, etc.)
  • Strong ability to independently solve complex problems and collaborate effectively on team initiatives
  • Demonstrated experience designing or contributing to scalable, high-integrity, and performant systems
  • Familiarity with machine learning techniques for failure correlation, anomaly detection, or pattern recognition
  • Experience building data pipelines or working with distributed data processing frameworks
