Apple has long held a deep conviction that great design and beautiful typography are inseparable from great technology. The Type Engineering team sits at the heart of that conviction - building the foundational frameworks that bring expressive, world-class type to every Apple device, in nearly every script and language on Earth, and we're not done. If you believe that how human language is rendered is as important as any other part of the software stack, we want to hear from you.\\n
As a Frameworks Engineer on the Type engineering team, you will work across a rich set of technologies that reach from low-level system daemons to user-facing applications. Our team owns the systems responsible for font registration, delivery, and lifecycle management on all Apple OS platforms. We also develop the font management UI, and the majority of font and text formatting UI components available on all Apple platforms. All of these are enabled by our powerful set of APIs used by thousands of app developers.\nYour work will cover multiple layers of the system: designing and implementing XPC services and system daemons, refining and extending our APIs, and contributing to user-facing font management experiences. You will collaborate closely with engineers across Graphics, AppKit, UIKit, SwiftUI, and design teams to ensure that font technologies work seamlessly, efficiently, and beautifully across all of Apple's platforms.\nWhether you're developing a new feature, refining the UI, or designing an API that empowers font providers to delight their users, you will be contributing to technologies that touch every app, every document, and every letter users see on an Apple device.\n
Solid fundamentals in one or more of C++, Objective-C, or Swift\nUnderstanding of software design principles and systems programming concepts\nAbility to collaborate effectively across teams and communicate technical ideas clearly\nBachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience\n
Experience with text, font, or vector graphics technologies (e.g., Core Text, Core Graphics, SVG, PDF, OpenType, TrueType)\nFamiliarity with XPC, inter-process communication, or system daemon development on Apple platforms\nExperience building frameworks or APIs intended for broad adoption\nExperience with SwiftUI, UIKit, or AppKit\nA genuine passion for typography, design, and the intersection of technology and craft\n
