Employer job description
From Apple's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
We are seeking a Software Architect to define and lead the technical vision for Apple's next-generation Finance Technology Platform. This is a platform-defining technical authority role, responsible for designing and building a multi-tenant, AI-native platform that powers financial transaction processing end-to-end — from business event ingestion through validation, enrichment, approval, position tracking, settlement, and reconciliation.
This is not a management role. It is a first-principles engineering leadership role: you will architect the platform, set the standards other teams build against, and personally shape the agentic Finance AI foundations that make this platform fundamentally different from the transaction-recording systems that came before it.
Description
Finance systems have historically been transaction recorders. We intend to build a platform that reasons. As Principal Software Architect, you will architect a platform where AI agents perform the majority of financial processing work end-to-end — interpreting business intent, validating and enriching transactions, routing approvals, matching and adjudicating documents, resolving exceptions, corresponding with counterparties, and preparing settlement — with humans in the loop by policy, not by default.
