Apple is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to help engineering teams understand, model, and optimize infrastructure demand across large-scale cloud services. This role combines deep application and systems expertise with capacity management, performance engineering, and infrastructure efficiency.
You will partner closely with many engineering teams to develop a deep understanding of their applications, architectures, workloads, and growth patterns; identify the signals that drive infrastructure consumption; and translate those signals into measurable resource demand and capacity requirements.
This is a hands-on technical role requiring broad experience across distributed systems, application architecture, observability, cloud infrastructure, and capacity planning. You will help teams make informed infrastructure decisions while ensuring resources are used efficiently without compromising reliability, performance, or scalability.
Description
You will embed with engineering teams responsible for complex, large-scale services and become a technical partner in understanding how their systems consume infrastructure.
The role requires the ability to navigate complex application ecosystems, understand dependencies and architectural characteristics, and connect application and business-level workload signals to underlying compute, memory, storage, network, and platform resource consumption.
You will work with teams to establish meaningful demand models, improve observability into resource utilization, forecast future infrastructure requirements, and identify opportunities to improve efficiency.
You will also help develop common methodologies, tooling, and standards that allow these practices to scale across multiple organizations and services.
Successful candidates will combine strong systems engineering skills with curiosity, analytical thinking, and the ability to build trusted technical relationships across application, infrastructure, operations, finance, and leadership teams.
