Secure Systems Engineer Platform Architecture

Are you a big-picture visionary who understands how each element affects all the others At Apple ournPlatform Architecture group is responsible for connecting our hardware software and servers into onenunified system. Youll join a team of engineers and architects who are dedicated to securing the worlds mostnadvanced consumer devices. Our products are trusted for storing personal data and our goal is to betternsafeguard our users. Were looking for dedicated and inspired individuals to help improve on the security ofnApples products.

In this role you will define the architecture and oversee the operation of distributed web services that set and enforce security policy for the development manufacture deployment and operation of Apple products ultimately driving continuous security improvements for these products. Together our work will be instrumental in maintaining the trust millions of customers place in their devices every day.

Lead cross-functional teams throughout the product development cycle to resolve system-level issues without sacrificing product security or impacting product emerging threats develop threat models and define security architectures for new Apple products and technologies. Derive system security requirements and design balanced and novel mitigations in creative collaboration with iconic product and engineering detailed system-level specifications to guide product development integration and quality assurance teams in the creation of golden unit tests reference data and sample libraries to aid integration of our security technologies across team boundaries (e.g. client/server).nDrive security requirements and architecture into web application services that integrate with hardware roots of trust playing a pivotal role in the development manufacture deployment and operation of Apple a wide range of interpersonal and technical skills to champion adoption of our industry-leading security technologies across multiple product categories.

BS in EE/CE/CS or related relevant field or equivalent practical with secure boot and establishing hardware roots of trust; or experience designing developing and deploying secure web services and scalable infrastructure for highly available with common programming languages such as Python Go or C/ collaborating across multiple disciplines such as software engineering hardware and infrastructure.

10 years of relevant industry in EE/CE/CS or related relevant of cryptographic principles (e.g. symmetric vs asymmetric crypto encryption vs authentication and PKI frameworks).nAbility to perform critical analysis of security properties across hardware software systems and web service architectures in order to build a comprehensive threat model (e.g. familiarity with common threat modeling methodologies such as STRIDE or Trike).nAbility to help drive cross-functional initiatives and to provide architectural guidance to teams lacking resident security to work cross-functionally with Infrastructure Privacy Safety Service Manufacturing Software and Product Development written and oral communications building and using AI-assisted workflows that enhance efficiency improve quality of output and extend the reach of what a small team can accomplish.
