Imagine what you could do here! At Apple, new ideas have a way of becoming extraordinary products, services, and experiences very quickly, and that holds just as true for the tools we build internally as for the products the world sees.
The Human Research and Engineering Solutions AI/ML team builds the software that Apple's Hardware Engineering organizations rely on to do their best work. We sit where web engineering meets applied AI: the applications and services we create shape how thousands of hardware engineers plan, collaborate, and make decisions every day. When we get it right, complex work becomes simpler, faster, and more intelligent.
We are looking for a Full Stack Engineer who is, at heart, a builder. Someone equally at home crafting a refined ReactJS interface and designing the backend and data flows behind it, and who is energized by weaving AI into the tools people use. If you care about elegant systems as much as elegant code, we would like to hear from you.
Description
As a Full Stack Engineer on the HRES AI/ML team, you will design, build, and evolve web applications and services that empower Hardware Engineering organizations across Apple. You will work closely with engineers to understand their workflows and challenges, translate those needs into effective technical solutions, and take features from early concept through production. Your work will span the user experience, backend services, APIs, data flows, and AI capabilities that power these tools.
We care deeply about the user experience and think in systems: how components fit together, where the right abstractions belong, and how today’s decisions shape tomorrow’s roadmap. You will apply AI thoughtfully as part of the overall product experience and use modern development tools, including LLM-powered tools, to improve delivery while maintaining a high bar for quality, reliability, and architecture. Because this work involves close collaboration with our users and partners, the ideal candidate combines strong engineering judgment with curiosity, communication, and ownership.
Responsibilities
- Partner with Hardware Engineering teams to understand their workflows and translate complex needs into intuitive software solutions.
- Own features and applications from problem definition and technical design through implementation, deployment, adoption, and continuous improvement.
- Design and build production-quality full stack applications, including user interfaces, backend services, APIs, data models, and integrations.
- Develop AI-powered and agentic capabilities that connect with engineering data and tools to support multi-step workflows and tasks.
- Shape application architecture and maintain high standards for scalability, reliability, security, testing, observability, and user experience.
- Collaborate across teams, incorporate user feedback, and contribute reusable tools, patterns, and technical guidance.
Minimum Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 4+ years of experience delivering production software through the full software development lifecycle, from requirements and system design to implementation, testing, deployment, and ongoing support.
- Strong foundation in software engineering principles, including architecture, API and data design, testing, debugging, security, reliability, performance, and maintainability.
- Experience building full stack applications and the ability to work effectively across user interfaces, backend services, integrations, and data systems.
- Experience using modern development tools, including AI-assisted coding tools, while applying sound engineering judgment to review, validate, and improve generated code.
- Demonstrated ability to understand complex user workflows, translate them into practical technical solutions, and collaborate across teams to deliver measurable outcomes.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to translate technical concepts into clear, business-focused insights.
Preferred Qualifications
- Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 6+ years of experience delivering production software through the full software development lifecycle, from requirements and system design to implementation, testing, deployment, and ongoing support.
- A genuine passion for systems architecture thinking, and a habit of reasoning about how components, data, and services fit together at scale.
- Experience using AI coding tools such as Claude Code or Continue to enhance the development workflow and accelerate delivery while maintaining code quality and architectural standards.
- Experience integrating LLMs or ML services into production applications, for example prompt design, retrieval augmented generation, agentic workflows, or model backed features.
- Familiarity with message and job queues such as RabbitMQ, Kafka, or Resque, and with distributed systems.
- Experience with cloud platforms and containerization tools such as Docker and Kubernetes.
- Strong understanding of UX and UI design principles.

Translate your Australian degree for U.S. employers
A three-year Australian bachelor's in computer science or software engineering is generally accepted as equivalent to a U.S. four-year degree for E-3 visa specialty occupation purposes. Get a credential evaluation ready before interviews so employers aren't surprised during the LCA stage.
Target employers with active LCA filing history
Search the DOL's Foreign Labor Application Gateway (FLAG) for companies that have filed Labor Condition Applications for software engineering roles. Employers who've filed LCAs before know the E-3 process and are far less likely to withdraw an offer over sponsorship uncertainty.
Clarify the full stack scope before the offer letter
E-3 specialty occupation requires a direct relationship between your degree and the role. If the job description mixes DevOps, data engineering, and product management, push for a focused title and duties list before signing, a vague offer letter can complicate LCA certification with the DOL.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for your LCA and paperwork
Once you have an offer, the employer must file an LCA with the DOL before you can apply at the consulate. Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork end-to-end, so neither you nor your employer loses time on unfamiliar government portals.
Negotiate the E-3 renewal cycle into your employment terms
The E-3 is issued in two-year increments with no cap on renewals, but each renewal requires a new LCA filing by your employer. Before you accept an offer, confirm the company has a process for timely renewals so your work authorization doesn't lapse mid-project.
Address multiple worksites before your consulate appointment
Full stack engineers are frequently placed at client sites or work across multiple office locations. Each primary worksite needs to be covered under the LCA's prevailing wage determination. Flag any hybrid or client-facing arrangements to your employer before the DOL filing to avoid a compliance gap.
E-3 Visa Full Stack Engineer: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Full Stack Engineer jobs with E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals searching for U.S. roles with E-3 sponsorship. You can filter by job title and see which companies have a history of E-3 and LCA filings for engineering roles. This is faster than sorting through general job boards where sponsorship willingness is rarely disclosed upfront.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Full Stack Engineer role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes, provided the position genuinely requires at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related field such as computer science, software engineering, or information technology. Roles where any bachelor's degree is accepted regardless of field don't meet the specialty occupation standard. The job description and your employer's internal requirements both matter when the DOL reviews the LCA.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Full Stack Engineers?
The E-3 has no annual cap and no lottery, so you can apply as soon as you have a qualifying offer and an employer willing to file the LCA. The H-1B runs through a randomised lottery capped at 85,000 registrations per year, meaning most applicants are rejected regardless of qualifications. For Australian engineers, the E-3 is a significantly more predictable path.
Can I change employers or projects while on an E-3 as a Full Stack Engineer?
You can change employers, but your new employer must file a fresh LCA with the DOL and you'll need a new visa stamp if your current one was tied to the previous role. There's no formal portability provision like the H-1B has under AC21. Starting the LCA process before your last day at your current employer reduces any gap in your work authorisation.
