from Apple careersApple's Camera ISP team is looking for a passionate and skilled embedded software engineer to help shape the future of imaging across all Apple products. In this role, you'll work at the intersection of hardware and software — building the low-level systems that power extraordinary camera experiences in iPhone, iPad, Mac, and beyond.
You'll be part of a close-knit, collaborative team that values innovation, rapid iteration, and technical excellence. We give our engineers meaningful ownership and autonomy, with direct impact on how Apple designs, tests, and manufactures its most beloved products. Our team fosters an environment of cross-functional collaboration, where your contributions influence decisions at both the team and product level.
This role involves developing camera software across many layers, including firmware, kernel, and user space. You will be responsible for helping to design, implement, maintain, and test new camera and ISP features across all Apple products.
