Apple is seeking a Firmware/Software System Engineering Program Manager to own the end-to-end program plan for next-generation firmware and software systems. You will partner with firmware engineers, hardware designers, systems architects, and manufacturing teams to shepherd products from concept through mass production. This is a leadership role where you will drive cross-functional programs across the full product development lifecycle, from pre-kickoff planning and architecture alignment through development, convergence, factory bring-up, and post-release field analysis. You will establish and track schedules, critical paths, milestones, and risk mitigation strategies across firmware, hardware, and system integration workstreams; lead structured program reviews at each gate; drive data-driven convergence with bug tracking and burn-down management; and act as the communication backbone to keep teams and leadership aligned with clear, concise updates. You will surface risk early, propose mitigation plans, and escalate as needed; support factory and field readiness during hardware builds and post-release investigations; and build organizational clarity through robust defect tracking and cross-functional gating. Minimum qualifications include a BS in Electrical/Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field with 7+ years of engineering program management experience. Preferred qualifications include MS, equivalent hands-on firmware or embedded systems experience, and demonstrated ability to manage HW/FW/SW co-development programs across multiple teams.
