System Software Engineer - Debug Technologies
Software and Services
Apple is looking to grow its Debug Technologies team. We’re focused on in-system debugging and failure observability solutions for current and future Apple platforms spanning iOS, Mac, and future products. We’re looking for Software and Firmware Engineers with operating systems experience who are interested in working hands-on across the Core OS software stack.
Description:
You’ll develop both new silicon- and system-level features to support a better debugging and field failure diagnostic experience, create and improve low-level debugging tools, and improve infrastructure. Solutions you will work on will span from internal development workflows to customer crash diagnostics. You will provide recommendations on future system architectures with an eye toward improved debugging experience and field failure observability. You’ll write code and develop new features of Apple’s Operating Systems (iOS / macOS) to support in-system debugging. You’ll debug and perform root-cause analysis of real-world failures with other specialists. And, you’ll create and improve internal infrastructure to better scale the capture, triage, and reporting of field issues.
Minimum Qualifications:
- An understanding of operating system fundamentals and/or compilers/linkers/object formats
- Experience developing or debugging on embedded systems, including hobby projects
- Proficiency in C/C++ programming
- Experience with software revision control tools and workflows (e.g., svn, git)
