DevOps / Infrastructure Engineer — Firmware Validation

At Apple, we work every single day to craft products that enrich people’s lives. Do you love working on challenges that no one has solved yet? Do you like changing the game?

We have an opportunity for a results-oriented and extraordinarily hardworking DevOps / Infrastructure Engineer. As a member of our multifaceted group, you will have the outstanding and great opportunity to craft upcoming products that will delight and encourage millions of Apple’s customers every single day.

We're looking for a DevOps-minded engineer to contribute and grow the AMS firmware validation platform — the CI/CD, infrastructure, and tooling that builds, tests, and validates Mixed-Signal IP firmware from static analysis all the way through hardware-in-the-loop silicon test.

BS degree in technical discipline with minimum 10 years of relevant experience. DevOps/infrastructure background: designing and owning CI/CD pipelines and shared engineering infrastructure, with an automation-first mindset. Strong Python for CLI tooling, orchestration, and system integrations against APIs, webhooks, and service accounts.

Hands-on experience operating self-hosted CI/CD (GitLab CI, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or similar): pipeline design, runner administration, job orchestration, and debugging failures at the infrastructure level Proficiency with Git and the ability to integrate disparate build, test, and reporting services into one coherent pipeline.

Strong written and verbal communication; able to drive cross-team triage and keep stakeholders aligned.

Familiarity with the hardware/firmware development lifecycle; exposure to SoC bring-up or silicon test. Comfortable working hands-on in a hardware lab — setting up boards and test stations and keeping them running. Familiarity with lab instruments (oscilloscope, logic analyzer, etc.) is a plus; day-to-day signal-level debugging and board probing are not a core part of this role.

Experience with additional version-control systems (e.g., Perforce) or server-hosted Git platforms C programming or firmware development experience. Packaging and versioning tools (pip/conda, npm, or equivalent) and managing dependency/release flows AI-assisted development and tooling (LLM agents, MCP-style integrations) for code review, triage, and automation. Containerization / service-deployment experience (Docker, etc.).
