Summary
At Apple, new ideas become extraordinary products, services, and customer experiences with remarkable speed. The Apple Services Engineering team embodies Apple's commitment to combining art and technology — and this role sits where that technology meets the millions of people who rely on it every day. We're looking for an Engineering Project Manager to help manage builds and releases for Apple's cloudOS and Private Cloud Compute (PCC). This is a hybrid role: you'll combine hands-on build engineering with project management, working directly in the build and release pipeline as well as coordinating the teams around it. You'll join the team responsible for shipping the OS that powers Apple's products and the privacy-preserving infrastructure behind PCC. This is a high-visibility role for someone with strong OS fundamentals, sharp communication skills, and real passion for software deployment and release management — someone who takes ownership of what they ship, thrives in ambiguity, and enjoys designing solutions to hard problems.
Description
You'll coordinate cross-functional teams, gather requirements, and drive the release process for shipping server software at scale. You'll deliver clear, timely status updates to partner teams on upcoming releases, work with engineering to prioritize deliverables and triage issues, and lead projects that make the release process itself better — more resilient, more predictable, and less dependent on manual intervention. This role suits a project manager with a strong technical bent, or a release engineer who is highly organized and wants to help drive software from code to customer.
Minimum Qualifications
- BS/MS in an engineering field, or equivalent experience
- 3-5+ years of experience as a Project or Program Manager
- Hands-on build or release engineering experience, including scripting or automation work
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work cross-functionally across engineering and program management teams
Preferred Qualifications
- Build and Release Engineering / Release Management experience in systems with a high volume of code changes
- Understanding of release engineering, branching, and software configuration management
- Experience in DevOps, SRE, SDET, or TE/QE
- Experience with Git and scripting languages
- Project management experience across the full software development lifecycle
- Unix programming/scripting experience
- Self-motivated and proactive, with strong creative and critical-thinking skills
- Track record of defining processes and driving their adoption
