Job description

For the engineer who obsesses over the butterfly effect of a single line of code, there is no greater stage than Apple's Core OS! Core OS builds uncompromising, lightning-fast foundation that iOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS stand upon. We don't just write software; we forge the soul of the machine, ensuring the operating system and the hardware breathe as one to create a seamless device identity.

At the center of it all is Darwin, the UNIX-like heartbeat of Apple's operating systems, spanning from the deepest levels of the kernel up through critical low-level user components. The Darwin Runtime team is seeking visionary engineers to push the boundaries of low-level system technologies. If you obsess over performance, security, and the massive cascading impact of your code, your life's best work is waiting for you here!
