Our work results in significant improvements to the security of Apple’s apps and services without compromising the polished user experience over a billion users rely on every day.
As an engineering manager in SPEAR, you will lead projects in collaboration with the maintainers of core operating system components to make meaningful and sustainable security improvements. Your team will deliver well-designed, robust, and maintainable software features that meaningfully improve end user security. Your team’s accomplishments will dramatically accelerate progress on improving the security of our users’ devices. As a leader in a growing organization, you will hire and develop talented engineers who will help set the standard for cross-functional collaboration and engineering excellence.
As a result of the collective effort of dedicated engineers like yourself, Apple’s products are the most secure consumer devices on the market. Our mission is to continue to advance the state of the art of end user security. Our goal isn’t simply to be the most secure: we’re working to ensure the safety of every user’s digital life, even against the most malicious and well-resourced adversaries.
