Traffic and Secure Services Network SRE Engineer

At Apple we build systems that power services used by hundreds of millions of people around the world and every second counts. The Services Engineering organization is at the heart of this mission ensuring our platforms are performant secure and always available. Were seeking a technically strong Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to join our growing team focused on the future of traffic management load balancing and secure networking infrastructure. nnYoull play a key role in shaping the next generation of how services communicate securely and efficiently across Apples global ecosystem. This isnt just about keeping systems up its about redefining how traffic flows through one of the worlds most critical networks. nnOur team owns a foundational platform that service teams across Apple depend on for high availability performance and security. From intelligent routing to secure TLS termination were building scalable infrastructure solutions that empower internal developers while protecting user privacy and system integrity.

As a Reliability Engineer youll work closely with engineering teams in North America and Europe contributing to a globally distributed system that operates 24x7 at immense scale. Youll have the opportunity to design automate and operate core networking services that underpin Apples most important products. Responsibilities include : nn- Design build and operate highly available infrastructure systems for traffic routing load balancing and secure connectivity at global scale. n- Collaborate with development teams to influence architecture improve observability and embed SRE best practices across the SDLC. n- Respond to incidents when needed (on-call rotation) but spend most of your time preventing them through proactive engineering monitoring and system improvements. n- Evaluate emerging technologies and drive innovation that pushes the boundaries of whats possible in secure high-performance networking. n- Contribute to a culture of continuous improvement: write clear documentation conduct blameless postmortems and help define SLOs that align with business impact. n- Help mentor teammates and share knowledge across a growing international SRE is an individual contributor (IC) role with strong technical leadership potential.
