We're looking for engineers with a strong track record of building fault-tolerant, distributed systems, and the judgment to operate confidently in a complex, high-scale environment. Our engineers demonstrate unique leadership skills and can excel in a complex environment that obsesses about the customer experience.
As a software engineer on the core observability platform components of iCloud services, you will design, develop, and support a multi-tenant platform that standardizes observability across iCloud services. We value engineers who can move fluidly between hands-on coding, architecture decisions, and production ownership, and who are curious about applying new techniques, including machine learning, to solve operational problems.

Strong background in designing, building, and operating backend services and distributed systems
Strong background in streaming data processing frameworks, handling data at massive scale
Experience in programming in concurrent and multi-threaded environments
Bachelor’s degree in an engineering-related field or equivalent job-related experience
