Tools and Automations Lead, App Review

Job description

Apps are changing the world and enriching people’s lives, driven by developers dedicated to creating extraordinary experiences that delight customers. Apple’s Worldwide Developer Relations team (WWDR) provides the services, resources and guidance that empowers the world’s most dynamic developer community to push the boundaries of innovation and bring the next big app ideas to Apple’s platforms for customers worldwide.

WWDR also offers programs to help developers connect with experts, learn about the latest Apple tools and technologies, and adopt best practices to supercharge app development. App Review operates at extraordinary scale, and the quality of that operation depends on the people, tooling, automation, and intelligence we build behind it. We are looking for a highly technical builder who treats App Review's process and policy application as a system to be designed — measured, refined, and continuously improved — and who is just as comfortable prototyping a solution themselves as they are defining the requirements that let our engineering partners build it to scale.

This is a hands-on role for someone who is equal parts engineer, systems thinker, and process designer — and a strong cross-functional collaborator. You will identify where review specialists, developers, and Apple are underserved by today's workflows, then design, prototype, and deliver the solutions that close those gaps, increasingly leveraging generative AI both as a capability we ship and as a tool we build with.

Critically, you will know what to build yourself and what to hand to our platform and infrastructure partners — and you will make those partnerships succeed. You will be the bridge between App Review's operational reality and the product, AI, and platform engineering capabilities that scale it — translating how review actually works into requirements those teams can build against, and translating what they ship back into tools specialists trust and use.
