Swift Engineer, Radar Engineering

Summary

Do you want to have a significant impact on how work is done at Apple? Radar is used by
every major organization across Apple to help teams organize and track their work. As
Apple’s primary tool for defining, tracking, and testing issues, Radar has been used for
decades across various teams, including hardware and software engineering. It serves as a
unified platform for bug tracking, test case management, and product management, facilitat-
ing seamless coordination among team members. The Radar Engineering team at Apple
seeks an early-career Swift Engineer to help build the native Radar apps used across Apple on
macOS and iOS.

Description

As a Swift Engineer on the Radar Client team, you will help build the native Radar apps that
engineers across Apple use every day to track bugs, plan work, and ship products. Radar is a
high-traffic, business-critical system used by teams across all of Apple, and the apps you will
work on are the frontend clients of the platform.
You will join a growing team distributed across California, Texas, and Ireland. In our highly
collaborative environment, you will work closely with a team of passionate builders to deliver
end-to-end features critical to Apple’s engineering workflows. You will receive structured
mentorship, comprehensive training in Apple’s development practices, and the support to
learn and develop your skills quickly.
You will write, test, and ship Swift code across Radar’s macOS and iOS apps. You will build
new features, fix bugs, and learn how to keep a large, long-lived codebase fast and reliable
while it constantly evolves. As you ramp up, you will take on increasing ownership of
features, contribute to design discussions, and help bring new frameworks and technologies
into the apps.
