　　Would you like to join a creative engineering team committed to making Apple hardware more reliable? We’re looking for a software engineer to develop tools that accelerate aging of Apple’s next-generation hardware, to identify ways to improve durability. In this role, you’ll develop a variety of software to evaluate the reliability of future Apple hardware — everything from stress cycling software to native apps.

The data generated by these tools will be reviewed at an executive level and influence the design of future products. This is a hands-on work environment where engineers are self-motivated and support several projects concurrently. If you enjoy tinkering with microcontrollers (Arduino, Raspberry Pi, etc.) or embedded systems, you’ll be right at home on our team! You will not be abstracted from the hardware or operating system: our software runs on prototype hardware, which is running a pre-release operating system. If this sounds like an exciting technical challenge, this may be the place for you... Come join our team!
