Tools & Test Automation Engineer, Media, Graphics & Compute Tech

What you'll do

• Lead engineering investigations for AirPlay features including multi-room audio synchronization and large-scale group playback.
• Architect and build physical test rigs, RF chamber setups, and network simulation environments.
• Develop internal tooling, automation frameworks, and software to accelerate prototyping and measurement.
• Characterize system performance under load and isolate variables in complex multi-device scenarios.
• Translate empirical data from investigations into actionable engineering recommendations for leadership.
• Design and execute test plans to validate new features and performance improvements at scale.

What we're looking for

• 5+ years of software engineering experience with hands-on systems or embedded programming in Swift, Objective-C, C/C++, or Python.
• Experience designing and operating hardware-in-the-loop test environments, RF test chambers, or comparable physical test infrastructure.
• Strong background in performance testing, profiling, and measurement methodology.
• Demonstrated ability to work cross-functionally and communicate complex technical findings to diverse audiences.
• Experience with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth protocols and RF fundamentals relevant to AirPlay environments (preferred).
• Familiarity with audio or video streaming systems, synchronization protocols, or media playback pipelines (preferred).
• Track record of building internal tooling or test automation that meaningfully improved engineering velocity (preferred).
