About the role

What will you do at Apple?

Every meaningful decision about Apple device health, from identifying a battery

regression to validating a new AI feature's system footprint, starts with data.

The Platform Telemetry Quality Engineering team owns the automated systems that

ensure that data is accurate, complete, and trustworthy across every Apple

platform. We sit at the foundation of Apple's quality signal, and we're looking

for engineers who understand that great products are only as good as the data

behind them.

DESCRIPTION

As a Quality Engineer on our team, you'll build and maintain the automated

pipelines that validate system telemetry data across Apple's entire device

lineup, iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple Vision Pro, and beyond. Your work

ensures that when engineers across Apple instrument new features and services,

the data flowing back from devices is correct, well-structured, and

regression-free. You'll validate telemetry from some of Apple's most ambitious

software, including on device AI models and Siri intelligence, working directly

with development teams to define quality expectations before data ever reaches

production. Through dashboards, automated reporting, and close cross-functional

collaboration, you'll give teams across the organization a clear, real-time

picture of system health at every point in the release cycle. This role is for

someone who takes data seriously, builds with scale in mind, and wants their

work to underpin the quality signal for one of the world's most complex software

ecosystems.
