## Job description

Apple Pay builds and operates the systems that power Apple Pay transactions at global scale, where downtime or a scalability shortfall means a failed payment for a real person at a register or checkout. This Architect role is responsible for setting the technical direction for how Apple Pay's systems achieve reliability, scalability, and availability — not just in design docs, but in the metrics, SLOs, and operational practices that hold them accountable in production.

It is a role for someone with strong, well-reasoned opinions about how distributed systems should behave under load, failure, and partial degradation, and who can translate those opinions into concrete architecture, tooling, and team practices across the org.
