Software Developer, Tools & Automation

Descrizione del lavoro:

The Wireless Technologies and Ecosystems (WTE) team is seeking a talented software developer to design and build automation frameworks, developer tools, and test strategies that ensure the highest quality and reliability of Apple Pay technologies, including Tap to Pay on iPhone. This is a software developer role first and foremost: you will be designing and building tools and frameworks that push the boundaries of test automation. Your work will directly power Apple Pay features used by millions of people every day, ensuring secure, reliable, and seamless payment experiences. The quality frameworks and automation you build ensure that every transaction works seamlessly when it matters most. This role is a great opportunity to apply strong software engineering skills to groundbreaking technology domains. You will build production quality software, design tools that improve developer velocity, and create effective test strategies for complex payment systems, including exploration of innovative approaches like AI-enhanced automation. Experience with wireless technologies is valuable but not required: we're looking for exceptional developers who are excited to learn and grow.
Design and implement automation frameworks, developer productivity tools, and scalable test tools that validate critical Apple Pay flows (with opportunities to explore AI enhanced testing approaches). Define and execute test strategies for critical Apple features, focusing on edge cases, regressions, and performance. Debug complex issues, investigate system behaviour, and provide clear actionable technical analysis. Explore innovative approaches, including AI/ML techniques for test automation. Build and maintain automation that integrates with CI/CD pipelines to ensure rapid, reliable delivery. Collaborate with senior developers and engineers to improve the testability, scalability, and reliability of systems. Grow your expertise in both software development and specialized technology domains.
Software development experience: 1-3 years (including internships, co-ops, or personal projects) Strong programming skills: Demonstrated ability to design, build, and optimize production scale software systems with clean, maintainable code in at least one programming language (Python, Java, C++, or similar). Computer science fundamentals: Strong understanding of data structures, algorithms, and system design principles. Bachelor, Master or higher degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field. Version control: Familiarity with Git or other version control systems. Quality mindset: Interest in software reliability, scalability, and automated testing methodologies. Problem solving ability: Strong analytical thinking and eagerness to tackle challenging technical problems.
Tooling: Familiarity with test automation frameworks, CI/CD pipelines, and/or modern development tools. Interest or exposure to embedded systems, wireless technologies (e.g., NFC, secure elements), or industry standards (ISO14443, EMV, GlobalPlatform, Java Card). AI/ML interests: Experience with machine learning, data science, or AI applications OR strong curiosity about applying these techniques to testing and automation
