Platform Software Engineer, Infrastructure Services

In this role, you will split your time between building new software and operating the systems that power content delivery for over a billion Apple users. You will start with clear direction and well-defined projects, but as you build context and confidence, you will increasingly identify problems on your own and propose solutions to the team. That growth is by design: we are looking for someone at the stage in their career where they are ready to transition from executing on well-scoped tasks to owning the "what" and "why," not just the "how." You will be supported in that growth through regular design reviews, knowledge-sharing sessions, and mentorship from senior engineers. Your work will have broad visibility across Apple, and you will help shape how the team adopts modern tooling, including GenAI-driven workflows, to make operations smarter and more efficient. If you enjoy working across the full stack, from networking and systems to application development, and you are ready to take the next step in your engineering career, this is the role for you. Develop and maintain software solutions that support the reliability, scalability, and performance of Apple's global edge infrastructure. Automate operational workflows to reduce manual effort and improve consistency across the platform. Troubleshoot and resolve performance and availability issues across CDN, DNS, and compute systems using open-source and commercial tools. Build internal tools, APIs, and services that help engineers manage and observe infrastructure more effectively. Integrate new platform designs and features into production environments with minimal disruption to existing services. Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams and external partners to align on requirements and deliver shared solutions. Contribute to the adoption of GenAI-driven workflows for analysis, monitoring, and process improvement. Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field or equivalent experience. 3+ years of experience in software development with a focus on infrastructure or internet-facing systems. Proficiency in Python, Go, and shell scripting (Bash or similar). Solid understanding of networking fundamentals, including TCP/IP, DNS, HTTP, and TLS. Experience building Python web backends using frameworks such as FastAPI or other ASGI-based applications. Experience with relational databases, particularly SQL and PostgreSQL. Experience deploying and managing applications on Kubernetes using tools such as Helm, Pulumi, or Flux. Experience with CI/CD pipelines and tools such as Spinnaker, Argo, or Jenkins. Experience with configuration management tools such as Salt, Ansible, or Puppet. Familiarity with Enterprise Linux and Linux-based server administration. Familiarity with front-end technologies such as HTML5, TypeScript, JavaScript, or React.
