DevOps Software Engineer Security Research, SEAR

As part of Apples Security Engineering u0026 Architecture (SEAR) organization youll join our mission to create the worlds most secure products. We are committed to build groundbreaking tools that empower our security researchers to deeply analyze Apples codebases and frameworks and surface security concerns efficiently and at are seeking a DevOps Software Engineer to take ownership of taking security research prototypes and scaling them into reliable production-grade services. By combining infrastructure and software development you will directly contribute to our mission to create the worlds most secure products.n

A strong candidate for this role is passionate about building reliable secure and scalable infrastructure that directly amplifies security research impact. You will work closely with security researchers located worldwide to transform internal research tools including binary analysis frameworks static analysis pipelines and ML-powered data intelligence engines into robust production services used by teams across Apple. You will own the complete journey: from evaluating prototype readiness and hardening codebases for scale through deployment to ongoing reliable the development side you will assess existing research codebases for production readiness extend and improve them for scale and build the service APIs and integrations that make them accessible to a broader audience. On the infrastructure side you will design containerized deployments establish CI/CD pipelines implement secrets management and access controls and build monitoring and observability practices that keep platforms performant and security.n
