Job description
from Apple careersThe Swift Compiler Team at Apple is a unique opportunity to evolve the Swift programming language and related developer tools that shape the experience of writing Swift code. We are looking for a software engineering manager passionate about programming languages, compilers, and the developer experience. We are a fast paced and collaborative group working to improve the Swift language and compiler.
As a member of the Swift compiler team, you will act as both a manager and an engineer to collaboratively improve the Swift language, improve compile-time performance, and enhance the Swift developer experience through diagnostics and other compiler-driven tools.
This position requires a highly creative and self-motivated individual, capable of communicating with and giving feedback to others in a range of roles across software engineering at Apple, the open source Swift community, and beyond. You will have the opportunity to affect design decisions not only on the Swift programming language and its developer-facing tools, but also general programming patterns, adoption of Swift in new domains, and community building/outreach across the Swift ecosystem.
<h3>Minimum Qualifications</h3>Experience working on compilers, frameworks, or other developer tools.
Experience with software design and programming in a statically-typed language such as (but not limited to) C++ or Swift.
Enthusiasm for both technical leadership and people leadership.
<h3>Preferred Qualifications</h3>Experience with the Swift programming language.
People management and/or technical leadership.
