Description
The Xcode Cloud team is seeking a hybrid software/systems engineer who will be a part of the reliability and security story for Xcode Cloud and related products. You’ll join an ambitious and openly collaborative group of engineers responsible for building new features and services that power Xcode Cloud, and will partner with dedicated security teams at Apple.
This role will give you:
A team of highly skilled co-workers ready to mentor you, and also learn from you.
The opportunity to contribute to building, launching and operating new products at Apple.
Unique distributed computing problems and encouragement to approach them with an open mind.
The opportunity to collaborate with talented engineering teams across a wide range of technology disciplines.
The freedom to take ownership and drive meaningful improvements in the operational reliability of mission critical services.
You will:
Have a bias for action - experiment, collect data, act like an owner, and generally move fast.
Write and review code for all codebases that we are involved with, and participate in every significant engineering effort for production systems that serve a very large scale of users.
Evaluate potential security threats, participate in threat-response, and develop our technology and processes to improve our security posture.
Own parts of the infrastructure like security automation, detection engineering, virtualization tech, data processing pipelines, secrets databases, release engineering, and many other things.

Support the day-to-day operations of the live environment including monitoring, measuring, and troubleshooting infrastructure and services.
Participate in a regular on-call rotation to support the products, and reduce the oncall burden through code-hardening, writing automation, improving telemetry and influencing other teams to improve their areas.
Achieve and maintain expected productivity levels with minimal supervision.
You will be part of a focused team building Xcode Cloud, but will also work closely with the other cross-functional organizations within Apple. Here you’ll find that we:
Have a wide range of experience, from new engineers to Apple veterans..
Provide a peaceful work environment where you can choose when to socialize and when to close find your own space and focus.
Have an encouraging and growth-focused workplace culture.
