As a Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) at Apple Maps, you will join the Maps Client Quality Engineering team as an integral member responsible for enhancing the reliability and performance of navigation features across all Apple platforms. Your daily tasks include architecting and implementing framework-level automation to validate routing accuracy, guidance systems, and service integrations within the Navigation Framework. You’ll collaborate closely with engineers from various disciplines to identify coverage gaps and develop scalable solutions that improve signal quality and reduce runtime. Additionally, you will extend existing frameworks to support multiple environments and integrate AI-driven insights for smarter test selection and faster root-cause analysis. This role requires strong programming skills in Swift and Objective-C, experience with asynchronous testing, and a solid understanding of CI/CD pipelines. Ideal candidates have hands-on experience integrating AI/ML techniques into automation workflows and contributing to the evolution of Apple Maps’ quality ecosystem.

What you'll do

  • Architect and implement automation for validating navigation routing, guidance, ETA accuracy, and service integrations.
  • Build asynchronous tests that simulate real-world navigation behaviors and system responses.
  • Extend existing frameworks to support multiple environments, reduce runtime, and enhance regression detection.
  • Collaborate with engineers to identify coverage gaps and deliver scalable solutions improving reliability and signal quality.
  • Integrate AI-driven insights into automation workflows for smarter test selection and faster root-cause analysis.
  • Contribute to the evolution of Apple Maps’ automation ecosystem by shaping how AI, analytics, and frameworks work together.

What we're looking for

  • Strong programming skills in Swift and Objective-C, including debugging and extending framework-level code.
  • Experience with asynchronous programming and testing techniques such as async/await and dispatch queues.
  • Proven expertise in non-UI automation for validating APIs, SDKs, or service integrations.
  • Solid understanding of CI/CD pipelines and automation infrastructure tools like ATP, Jenkins, and Xcode Cloud.
  • Ability to collaborate across teams to define automation needs and architect scalable solutions.
  • Experience integrating AI/ML techniques into test workflows for intelligent triage and anomaly detection.
