Employer job description
From Apple's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
The SPEAR Systems & Kernel team in Apple's Security Engineering & Architecture organization is hiring a collaborative systems engineer with a drive to improve the security of end user devices. We take on software engineering projects to make progress on Apple's most pressing security challenges, anywhere in the lower layers of the stack: bootloaders, drivers, firmware, and the kernel.
Our goal is to eliminate whole classes of software vulnerabilities, securing our systems against even the most advanced and well-resourced adversaries. We've done wholesale rewrites of codebases into memory safe languages, deployed static and dynamic analysis to prevent bugs, and undertaken bespoke rearchitecture of critical codebases. We continue to refine our approach to best protect our users against rapidly evolving threats.
