Job Details
API Review & Design Engineer
Cupertino, California, United States
Software and Services
Our small, outstanding team in Apple's Software Engineering division is chartered to help framework teams throughout the company ensure the Apple developer experience is just as carefully crafted as Apple's end-user hardware and software products. We're looking for someone who's passionate about software design and excited to play a key role in organizing multi-functional projects. As a member of our team, you'll have a unique opportunity to help shape the technologies that inspire developers around the world and empower them to realize their dreams.
Description
Our team provides API design guidance, consulting, and outreach to framework engineering teams to support the development of consistent, complete, and intuitive APIs. We establish and maintain API guidelines for our operating systems and review the design of software programming interfaces to ensure comprehensive access to platform functionality is available through Apple's SDKs. The team also reviews the needs of Apple applications to identify missing functionality in the SDKs and recommends and tracks API additions to fill identified gaps. You'll help us refine and implement this mission. Ours is a small team with a broad reach, so you will have an opportunity to specialize in responsibilities best suited to your strengths. This role's primary focus is to help engineering teams design public-facing frameworks through activities such as: advising framework teams to help transform feature plans and underlying technologies into well-architected, developer-focused APIs, evaluating proposals and providing concrete feedback on ergonomics, consistency with guidelines and precedents, and interaction with other parts of the developer experience, evangelizing and teaching new Swift features and framework-development guidelines to Apple engineering teams, assessing API coverage and completeness and identifying areas where additional interfaces are needed, identifying salient points from API Review discussions and new SDK releases to expand and improve on published API Guidelines, working with other Apple teams to integrate organizational goals, and participating in the stewardship and evolution of Apple's software quality efforts and processes.
Minimum Qualifications
5-10 years experience working in software development in Swift or Objective-C, a strong understanding of software architecture and API design, strong written and presentation skills able to communicate effectively with engineers and senior leaders, proven ability to ramp up quickly on new technologies.
Pay & Benefits
At Apple, base pay is one part of our total compensation package and is determined within a range. This provides the opportunity to progress as you grow and develop within a role. The base pay range for this role is between $181,100 and $318,400, and your base pay will depend on your skills, qualifications, experience, and location. Apple employees also have the opportunity to become an Apple shareholder through participation in Apple's discretionary employee stock programs. Apple employees are eligible for discretionary restricted stock unit awards, and can purchase Apple stock at a discount if voluntarily participating in Apple's Employee Stock Purchase Plan. You'll also receive benefits including: comprehensive medical and dental coverage, retirement benefits, a range of discounted products and free services, and for formal education related to advancing your career at Apple, reimbursement for certain educational expenses including tuition. Additionally, this role might be eligible for discretionary bonuses or commission payments as well as relocation.
Apple is an equal opportunity employer that is committed to inclusion and diversity. We seek to promote equal opportunity for all applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, Veteran status, or other legally protected characteristics.
