Software Development Engineer, Compute Platform

Job description

People at Apple don't just build products — they craft the kind of experience that has revolutionized entire industries. The diverse collection of our people and their ideas inspire innovation in everything we do. Imagine what you could do here! Join Apple, and help us leave the world better than we found it. The Apple Services Engineering (ASE) team builds and provides systems and infrastructure that power Apple's services (such as iCloud, iTunes, Siri, and Maps).

We are the foundation on which Apple's software developers build the products that our customers love. Our services have to scale globally, stay highly available, and "just work." If you love designing, engineering and running systems and infrastructure that will help millions of customers, then this is the place for you! Apple Services Engineering (ASE)'s Compute team is seeking a software engineer comfortable across data and systems to help our batch-focused compute platform make better decisions.

The platform runs millions of jobs a day across tens of thousands of hosts and retains a detailed record of how each one behaved. You will turn that record into predictions, optimizations and services the platform can act on, improving both the efficiency of the fleet and the reliability of the workloads that run on it.

The work is end to end

you will explore the data, build and validate the model, take it to production, and demonstrate the gains on live clusters. The platform is technically deep, and a prediction only pays off if you understand the systems that will act on it.
