Engineering Program Manager, Payments Analytics, Apple Services Engineering
Seattle, Washington, United States
Software and Services
The Apple Services Engineering team is one of the most exciting examples of Apple’s long-held passion for combining art and technology. These are the people who power the Wallet, Apple Gift Card, Apple Card, Apple Pay Later, App Store, Apple TV, Apple Music, Apple Fitness+, and Apple Podcasts! They do it on a massive scale, meeting Apple’s high expectations and high performance in more than 150 countries—Apple Services Engineering Program Managers partner with engineers who build secure, end-to-end solutions. Thanks to Apple’s unique hardware, software, and services integration, engineers and program managers are partners in achieving a unified vision. That vision always includes a deep commitment to strengthening Apple’s privacy policy, one of Apple’s core values. Although services are a more significant part of Apple’s business than ever, these teams remain small, agile, and cross-functional, offering more significant exposure to the array of opportunities here.
