Software Engineer - Test Systems
The SWE Developer Productivity organisation builds technologies and tools to help software engineers at Apple to do their best work. The SDP Testing Foundations team is creating libraries and services to ensure Apple's OS platforms and Apps are amazing to use on iPhone, Mac, Vision Pro, and beyond. Our libraries are a crucial part of Apple's development workflow and our services run tests at extensive scale as part of the at-desk and CI workflows of Apple's engineers. This team is expanding the scope and scale of testing that is possible at Apple by building next-gen systems and is looking for people excited by that goal.
In this role you will work on libraries and services to get the best out of the devices that we offer. You will design and develop client-side libraries for interacting with devices to accelerate test development across all our platforms. This involves engaging with users to determine the right design, and building out our libraries to ensure they have an ergonomic experience that reduces testing time and improves coverage.
You'll develop services that provide reliable and immediate device access by managing device connections and health, with robust monitoring systems to ensure high availability. This role involves collaborating closely with partner teams to build systems that can efficiently acquire, configure, and make devices available for testing in a scalable manner.
This position offers the opportunity to solve complex device management challenges across Apple's diverse software ecosystem. Your work will directly impact product quality and development speed across the organisation, making this role both technically challenging and highly influential. Join our collaborative team of engineers who value thoughtful solutions and continuous improvement in our pursuit of delighting our users with exceptional software.
