Get Access To All JobsAt Apple, how well a creative engineering organization runs and evolves is by design. Our artists and engineers work at the cutting edge of many disciplines and technologies, and the developer experience behind them - the tools, the systems, the workflows - has to evolve just as quickly, so that teams building complex, multifaceted creative projects can amplify their creativity and ship with confidence. This is an ideal role for an engineer who has spent time on both sides of delivery - writing the code, and shaping how the work gets done - and wants a role where both of those skills count.
Description
In this role, you'll own the rapidly evolving developer experience: the tools, the workflows, and the day-to-day practices our engineers build with. You'll identify the highest-impact problems and address them through tooling changes, process changes, or direct conversations. Finding the right fix for each problem is your responsibility. You'll report directly to the org leader with their full support. Working closely with multiple specialized engineering teams, you'll own the systems, workflows, and approaches that help them reach their goals. You won't be starting from scratch: tooling and delivery reporting already exist and are in active use, and you'll determine where they go and what to build next.
Responsibilities
- Build, own, and improve the tools our engineers use every day, with their direct input and a clear read on whether changes made their work better.
- Partner with engineering teams to shape what happens around the code: ownership and review practices, validation and verification, and the workflows that hold them together.
- Develop instrumentation and reporting that surfaces engineering health, failure trends, and informs team decision-making.
- Identify and drive adoption of AI-assisted and agentic workflows that accelerate development and validation cycles.
Minimum Qualifications
- 8+ years of professional software engineering experience.
- Experience with Xcode and iOS Development.
- Experience building internal or customer-facing tools that solve real problems.
- Experience with build systems, continuous integration, or automated test infrastructure.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience building developer-facing tooling that engineering teams use daily.
- Experience changing how an engineering team works: ownership models, review practices, quality gates.
- Experience owning delivery across teams as a technical program lead, or in a role that combined engineering with program ownership.
- Fluency with current agent architecture patterns, and a track record of adapting as they change.
Pay & Benefits
At Apple, base pay is one part of our total compensation package and is determined within a range. This provides the opportunity to progress as you grow and develop within a role. The base pay range for this role is between $175,000 and $308,500, and your base pay will depend on your skills, qualifications, experience, and location.
Apple employees also have the opportunity to become an Apple shareholder through participation in Apple's discretionary employee stock programs. Apple employees are eligible for discretionary restricted stock unit awards, and can purchase Apple stock at a discount if voluntarily participating in Apple's Employee Stock Purchase Plan. You'll also receive benefits including: Comprehensive medical and dental coverage, retirement benefits, a range of discounted products and free services, and for formal education related to advancing your career at Apple, reimbursement for certain educational expenses - including tuition. Additionally, this role might be eligible for discretionary bonuses or commission payments as well as relocation. Learn more about Apple Benefits
Note: Apple benefit, compensation and employee stock programs are subject to eligibility requirements and other terms of the applicable plan or program.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Developer Experience Jobs
Verify your role qualifies as a specialty occupation
Developer Experience roles span documentation engineering, SDK tooling, and API design. Pull the O*NET profile for your exact job code to confirm the position requires a bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering, or a directly related field before your employer files.
Frame your portfolio around technical depth
Developer Experience is sometimes misread as a support function. Compile work samples showing you own engineering decisions: SDKs you shipped, CLI tools you architected, or developer feedback loops you instrumented. This documentation supports the specialty occupation argument in your employer's LCA filing.
Search for H-1B1 Singapore sponsorship using Migrate Mate
Filter your job search by H-1B1 Singapore sponsorship history on Migrate Mate so you target companies that have already filed for Singaporean nationals, cutting outreach to employers unfamiliar with the visa's consulate-based process.
Target employers already enrolled in E-Verify
H-1B1 visa petitions don't require E-Verify enrollment, but companies already using it have HR teams comfortable with work-authorization verification. These employers move faster through the LCA and offer-letter stages without needing to educate their legal team on the process.
Confirm prevailing wage tier before accepting an offer
Your employer must certify your salary meets the DOL prevailing wage for your job code and work location. Run your title and metro area through the OFLC Wage Search before signing so you can flag any gap in the offer before the LCA is submitted.
Prepare for annual H-1B1 renewals from day one
Unlike H-1B, the H-1B1 Singapore is granted in one-year increments with no path to a multi-year extension. Confirm with your employer before accepting that their HR team will file renewal paperwork at least 60 days before your status expires each year.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Developer Experience role qualify as a specialty occupation for the H-1B1 Singapore visa?
Yes, if the position requires a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific technical field such as computer science, software engineering, or information systems. Developer Experience roles that involve building SDKs, maintaining developer tooling, or designing API documentation typically meet this standard. Roles framed primarily as community management or marketing without a technical degree requirement may not qualify, so your employer's LCA filing should reflect the engineering scope of the job.
How does the H-1B1 Singapore visa differ from H-1B for Developer Experience professionals?
The H-1B1 Singapore visa skips the H-1B lottery entirely, which means Singaporean professionals in Developer Experience roles can pursue a U.S. position any time of year rather than waiting for an April registration window. The annual cap is 5,400 visas and has never been reached. The trade-off is that H-1B1 is issued in one-year increments rather than the initial three years common with H-1B, so renewal planning becomes part of your annual employment cycle.
How do I find employers that sponsor Developer Experience roles on the H-1B1 Singapore visa?
Use Migrate Mate to filter for companies with H-1B1 Singapore sponsorship history in software and developer tools. Because H-1B1 filings are consulate-based rather than USCIS-petitioned, not all employers are familiar with the process. Prioritizing companies that have sponsored Singaporean nationals before reduces the back-and-forth of explaining the visa to HR teams encountering it for the first time.
What does the H-1B1 Singapore application process look like for a Developer Experience hire?
Your employer files a Labor Condition Application with DOL, certifying your role meets prevailing wage requirements for your job code and location. Once the LCA is certified, you apply directly at the U.S. Embassy in Singapore rather than going through USCIS. You'll present the certified LCA, a job offer letter, your degree credentials, and evidence that your role is a specialty occupation. There is no I-129 petition filed with USCIS, which removes several weeks from the typical H-1B sponsorship timeline.
Can I change employers on an H-1B1 Singapore visa if I find a better Developer Experience opportunity?
You can change employers, but H-1B1 does not carry H-1B portability protections. Your new employer must file a fresh LCA and you must obtain a new H-1B1 visa stamp before starting work, which means timing your transition around your visa renewal cycle. Avoid accepting a new role while your current H-1B1 is mid-year without confirming your new employer's LCA can be certified and the consular appointment secured before your current status expires.
