Austin, TX - USA
Job Summary
Identity Management Services (IdMS) builds and operates the identity platform behind Apple Account the sign-in and account system for every Apple service from iCloud the App Store and Apple Music to Apple Pay FaceTime and the Online Store. The team designs secure high-scale distributed Java services that handle billions of authentication and account lifecycle requests every a Software Development Engineer on this team you will design and build scalable identity services and high-performance REST and RPC APIs spanning authentication adaptive MFA and user lifecycle. You will own features end to end from architecture and design through implementation contract and integration testing and production support while improving the reliability latency and observability of systems that are never idle. You will also help bring ML and generative AI capabilities into identity workflows such as adaptive authentication and anomaly detection partnering with QE platform product and design teams along the way.
