Partner Engineering
Santa Clara Valley (Cupertino), California, United States
Software and Services
Do you flourish with variety, collaboration, and facilitating solutions to hard software engineering challenges? Are you looking to continually apply the standard processes of your craft with peers from multiple areas of Software Development across multiple internal and external partners? Partner Engineering is a role passionate about improving our software ecosystem. Some of the ways it may be improved is by working closely with our partner external software developers, to help them land technology transitions and stay modern with platform standard processes. You will listen to their requirements, goals and enhancement requests then translate those into improvements in our own APIs or features when applicable. You will work with our internal teams to understand what’s needed of our external partners as we develop new technologies and products, and then work with those partners to find the most efficient way to meet those needs. Most meaningfully, you will learn on the job from the most creative, adding your own intensity as you grow with the team
