About the opportunity

Apple is where individual creativities capture together, contributing to the values that lead to great work. Every new product we build, service we create, or Apple Store experience we deliver is the result of us making each other’s ideas stronger. That happens because every one of us shares a belief that we can make something wonderful and share it with the world, changing lives for the better. It’s the diversity of our people and their thinking that inspires the innovation that runs through everything we do. When we bring everybody in, we can do the best work of our lives. Here, you’ll do more than join something — you’ll add something.

We are looking for a highly motivated software engineer to support us in the design and development of our next generation of media streaming technologies. The role offers an incredible opportunity to contribute in the stack that powers our adaptive bit-rate engine across billion+ devices.
