Job title: Software Engineer - Darwin Runtime Company: Apple Job description: The Darwin Runtime team in Core OS is looking for enthusiastic engineers interested in developing low-level system technologies for Apple's operating systems. Darwin is the UNIX-like foundation at the heart of all Apple's operating systems, stretching from the kernel up through low-level user components. The Darwin Runtime team is responsible for building the low-level user space runtime technologies like Grand Central Dispatch (GCD), inter-process communication (XPC), memory allocator, threading library, and concurrency and synchronization primitives. These technologies provide a high quality, robust, and performant foundation on which iOS and macOS frameworks and applications are developed. The ideal candidate should be self-motivated and effective in operating independently, with a desire to learn and develop technical leadership. Team members are welcome and encouraged to participate in design discussions, code reviews, and development across multiple technologies. The team is actively involved in defining OS architecture and design of cross-functional features that capitalize on Darwin technologies. Our environment fosters technical innovation, meaningful technology ownership, and a liberating amount of autonomy!
