TL;DR · Software Engineer, Triage Intelligence and Debug Engineering, CoreOS

As a Software Engineer on the Triage Intelligence and Debug Engineering team at CoreOS, you will play a critical role in maintaining the reliability of Apple's vast device ecosystem. Your daily tasks include triaging crashes and panics across various OS layers by analyzing crash logs and kernel panics to identify root causes, collaborating with cross-functional teams to implement fixes, and developing automation pipelines that use ML and AI techniques for smarter issue resolution. You will also build debug tooling and CI/CD integrations to enhance platform stability at scale. The ideal candidate has expertise in C or Swift, proficiency in Python for scripting and automation, and a solid understanding of OS internals such as process management and virtual memory. Familiarity with Apple's XNU kernel and experience with debugging tools like LLDB is highly beneficial, as you will be working on systems that impact hundreds of millions of users daily.

What you'll do

  • Triage crashes and panics by analyzing logs and core dumps to identify root causes.
  • Encode triage logic into automation pipelines to classify and escalate issues automatically.
  • Apply ML and AI techniques to enhance crash clustering, anomaly detection, and pattern recognition.
  • Build debug tooling and scripts that integrate with CI/CD systems for platform stability validation.
  • Collaborate on the development of intelligent triage pipelines to improve OS reliability.

What we're looking for

  • Working knowledge of C and/or Swift for system-level development.
  • Exposure to automation frameworks, CI/CD pipelines, and scalable test systems.
  • Foundational understanding of OS internals including process management and memory handling.
  • Ability to analyze crash reports and kernel panics using debugging tools like LLDB or GDB.
  • Proficiency in Python for scripting, automation, and building test infrastructure.
  • Experience applying ML or AI techniques to improve system reliability and triage processes.
