Description

Our jobs and applications must be efficient, scalable, and stable. Although we write software, data is our main product and first-class citizen.

The data we produce power Apple leadership and partners about new innovations and the next big things. To succeed here you’ll need to be a proponent of building world-class analytical solutions. To be a part of the team means we will want your ideas, concerns, and opinions in our discussions. We are highly collaborative.

Thanks to Apple’s unique integration of hardware, software, and services, engineers here partner to get behind a single unified vision. That vision always includes a deep commitment to strengthening Apple’s privacy policy, one of Apple’s core values.
