outstanding products, services, and customer experiences very quickly. Bring passion
and dedication to your job, and there is no telling what you could accomplish.
Apple’s Manufacturing and Product Operations organization is looking for a
hands-on, technically accomplished Senior Software Engineering Manager to lead
multiple software engineering teams building the next generation of intelligent
manufacturing systems. This organization develops the software platforms,
agentic workflows, data infrastructure, and AI-powered applications that support
complex manufacturing operations at global scale. The work spans manufacturing
process optimization, production planning, quality inspection, equipment
intelligence, supply and material workflows, and the emerging use of embodied
and physical AI on the factory floor. In this role, you will lead multiple teams
responsible for building highly scalable, reliable, and secure systems that
connect enterprise applications, manufacturing data, AI models, industrial




equipment, and human decision-making. You will establish a cohesive technical
strategy across these teams and work closely with manufacturing, operations,
quality, test, automation, robotics, machine learning, and data engineering
organizations to turn emerging technologies into dependable production
capabilities. Building intelligent systems for manufacturing introduces unique
challenges: heterogeneous data, rapidly changing factory conditions, high
reliability requirements, physical-world constraints, and decisions that can
directly affect production. We are looking for an experienced organizational
leader with strong software engineering depth, architectural judgment,
manufacturing awareness, and a demonstrated ability to build, scale, and align
high-performing engineering teams.
