Description

As an Early Careers Full Stack Software Engineer on the EEE team, you will contribute to both the native Apple-platform applications and the backend services that power them. You will work across the stack — building UI in Swift and SwiftUI, integrating with APIs, and contributing to service-layer development — gaining broad experience in how modern platforms are built and operated.

Working under the guidance of senior engineers, you will take ownership of well-scoped tasks that span client and server, building strong foundations in full-stack development within a small, globally distributed team where your contributions are visible from day one.

Responsibilities

• Develop native application features alongside the backend services that support them
• Build and maintain RESTful APIs and service endpoints that power the application layer
• Implement client-side data integration — networking, caching, and persistence patterns
• Write automated tests across the stack (unit, integration, API) and contribute to engineering quality
• Participate in code reviews across both client and server codebases
• Investigate and resolve issues spanning the full stack — from UI rendering to API behaviour
• Collaborate with designers and senior engineers to understand requirements and deliver features
• Document APIs, data models, and integration patterns clearly

Minimum Qualifications

• Working knowledge of native Apple-platform development
• Familiarity with backend development (Python, Java, Go, or similar) and RESTful API design
• Understanding of relational databases and basic data modelling
• Experience with version control (Git) and collaborative development workflows

Preferred Qualifications

• B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent experience
• Experience shipping production applications on Apple platforms
• Familiarity with cloud services (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and containerised deployments
• Exposure to CI/CD pipelines spanning client and server builds
• Understanding of authentication, authorisation, and API security patterns
• Experience with data persistence on Apple platforms (Swift
• Data, Core Data)
• At Apple, we believe accessibility is a fundamental human right.
• You’ll find that idea reflected in everything here — in our culture, our benefits and our digital tools.
