Apple Media Products delivers content for some of Apple's most visible products — Apple TV+, Apple Music, the App Store, software updates, and more. The CDN Solutions team works across 6 CDN platforms (including Apple's own CDN) to onboard customers, configure properties, and keep things running at scale.
Apple Media Products seeks a CDN Solutions Engineer to join the Content Delivery Network Solutions team in Cupertino, California. This role is for an experienced, self-directed engineer who can independently identify problems, build solutions, and work directly with engineering teams across Apple — without waiting to be told what needs doing.
Description
As a CDN Solutions Engineer, you'll work directly with engineering teams across Apple — marketing, software engineering, AI/ML, IT, and more — to design and implement CDN solutions tailored to their needs. When issues arise, you'll troubleshoot: pulling logs, analyzing metrics, running DNS and HTTP diagnostics, and working with customers to resolve latency and availability problems.
You'll also identify and build tools that make the team's work faster, more consistent, and less manual — this is a role where you're expected to notice what's missing, not just execute what's assigned.
Every engagement brings a different system, a different set of challenges, and often a new technology to get up to speed on. When Apple launches something new, there's usually a CDN solution that needs to exist before it can go live — the work is rarely visible to the end user, but it's foundational to making both new and existing products work at scale. It's a role that keeps you close to what Apple is building broadly, not just your own corner of it.
The team itself is a tight, experienced group — most engineers have been working in the CDN space for over a decade. The team is self-directed and runs lean on process; there's no backlog of pre-scoped tickets waiting for you. What stays constant is the depth of expertise around you and the expectation that you'll bring your own. The team spans across multiple time zones operating as a single group — which means you're rarely far from someone who's seen the problem before.
Apple operates on a hybrid schedule — currently 3 days in office, 2 days remote.
At Apple, base pay is one part of our total compensation package and is determined within a range. This provides the opportunity to progress as you grow and develop within a role. The base pay range for this role is between $184,700 and $324,800, and your base pay will depend on your skills, qualifications, experience, and location.
Apple employees also have the opportunity to become an Apple shareholder through participation in Apple’s discretionary employee stock programs. Apple employees are eligible for discretionary restricted stock unit awards, and can purchase Apple stock at a discount if voluntarily participating in Apple’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
You’ll also receive benefits including: Comprehensive medical and dental coverage, retirement benefits, a range of discounted products and free services, and for formal education related to advancing your career at Apple, reimbursement for certain educational expenses — including tuition. Additionally, this role might be eligible for discretionary bonuses or commission payments as well as relocation.
