About

• Are you in the early stages of your software engineering career and thinking
• about your next steps? Imagine what you could do here! At Apple, great ideas
• have a way of becoming phenomenal products, services, and customer experiences
• very quickly. The Apple Pay Server Engineering team is building the world’s best
• software for paying and interacting with the world, from Apple Pay, transit, and
• event tickets, to digital keys and identity. Our team in London is growing and
• we are looking for engineers who are passionate about their craft, crave the
• challenge of building systems at scale, and thrive in a fast-paced environment.
• If you love solving meaningful problems that impact millions of people, we want
• to hear from you!

• DESCRIPTION

• Weʼre looking for someone who is excited by the possibility of growing as a
• software engineer at Apple. This isnʼt just about writing code: you'll have the
• opportunity to tackle the intricate challenge of building resilient and reliable
• distributed software systems at Apple's scale. You will be given flexibility to
• explore creative solutions, the support of a talented and driven team, and
• access to diverse technologies. You will have the autonomy and responsibility to
• take full ownership of your solutions. You'll join a team involved in every
• stage of the product and software development lifecycle and will design, build,
• test, deliver, and maintain exceptional software that truly makes a difference.
• In this fast-paced environment, you'll be hands-on in all phases, and will
• actively shape the architecture and design of our platforms through the
• experience of operating, monitoring, and providing on-call support for the
• software you build. As a key member of the team, you’ll participate in technical
• discussions, write specifications, review code, and produce documentation.

• communication, a highly collaborative approach, and the ability to work
• effectively across teams and disciplines. This position will initially
• concentrate more on learning than on responsibility, working under the
• mentorship of more experienced engineers in order to gain understanding of our
• products and services, as well as how the company works. Here at Apple there is
• always the opportunity to take on more responsibility when you feel ready for
• it. That may be for a component of a solution, a whole new feature, or an entire
• cross-functional project.
