The SPEAR team in Apple’s Security Engineering & Architecture organization is hiring a collaborative system software engineering manager with a drive to improve the security of end-user devices. SPEAR is a dedicated team of software engineers who make highly impactful security improvements across all of Apple’s operating systems. We design and implement security hardening measures that eliminate whole classes of vulnerabilities. This includes accelerating the transition to memory-safe languages and undertaking deep refactors to reorient key system components to build security into their core.

Our work results in significant improvements to the security of Apple’s products without compromising the stability and performance that over a billion users rely on every day. As an engineering manager in SPEAR, you will lead projects in collaboration with other teams across the lower levels of Apple’s software stack to harden the security of our operating systems. Your team will deliver well-designed, robust, and maintainable system software features that meaningfully improve end-user security.
