Job Summary
Our team builds the foundational systems that power search across Apple - from Siri to Apple Music to the App Store and beyond. We develop agentic orchestration frameworks configuration management infrastructure services and APIs that enable product teams to deliver fast reliable and intelligent search experiences to hundreds of millions of users.
Were looking for a Senior Software Engineer to design and build the distributed systems that underpin search at Apple scale. You will work at the intersection of large-scale backend infrastructure and agentic orchestration creating frameworks that coordinate complex multi-step search workflows across services. Your work will directly impact how quickly and reliably Apple products can deliver search results to users part of a platform team you will have the opportunity to work with many other teams across the organization and across the company. You will also participate in many key technical decisions that will shape the future of search at Apple.
Design and implement distributed frameworks for agentic orchestration systems that coordinate autonomous multi-step workflows across heterogeneous servicesnBuild and evolve configuration management infrastructure that allows teams across Apple to safely and rapidly tune search behavior at scalenOwn the reliability and performance of platform-level services handling high-throughput low-latency search trafficnDefine technical direction for framework APIs and abstractions consumed by multiple product teamsnCollaborate with teams across Apple (Siri Music App Store and others) to understand their needs and translate them into scalable platform capabilitiesnIdentify and resolve systemic performance bottlenecks reliability risks and architectural gapsnMentor engineers on the team and contribute to a strong engineering culture
5 years of professional software engineering experience focusing on backend developmentnProficiency in one or more programming languages such as Go Rust C or Java is requirednDeep understanding of distributed systems consensus fault tolerance consistency models and graceful degradationnExperience designing and operating large-scale backend services (high QPS low-latency requirements)nTrack record of leading cross-team technical initiatives from design through deliverynExcellent written and verbal communication skillsnStrong focus on collaboration and collaborative problem solving
Experience building orchestration or workflow execution frameworks (e.g. DAG-based execution engines agent-based systems or task schedulers)nFamiliarity with configuration management at scale feature flagging dynamic config propagation rollout safetynExperience with search or information retrieval systemsnExposure to agentic AI patterns tool use planning multi-agent coordinationnContributions to platform or infrastructure teams where your users are other engineers
