Imagine what you could do here. At Apple, quality isn't a checkpoint, it's a mindset woven into every product, service, and experience we create. The people here don't just test software; they safeguard the customer experience that defines Apple in the minds of millions. If you see quality as a strategic force multiplier, not a final gate, then this role was built for you.
The AppleCare Technologies team has an immediate opening for a Cross-Functional Quality Engineer to plan and lead testing across complex projects.

We are looking for a quality leader who doesn't just execute test plans, but someone who shapes how Apple thinks about quality from day one of a program, leaving every team more capable than they found it.
DESCRIPTION
In this role, you will embed quality early in the software development lifecycle by driving risk-based testing strategies and ensuring quality is a shared responsibility across product, engineering, and business teams.

- Advance quality engineering through the adoption of automation, AI/ML-driven testing practices, and innovative tools.
- Develop organizational quality capability by mentoring teams, fostering continuous learning, and driving improvements in testing processes.
- Provide clear, actionable communication of testing progress, risks, and quality insights to stakeholders at all levels.
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
- Bachelors degree in computer science or related field, or equivalent experience
- 5+ years of experience leading quality engineering and cross-functional testing at an enterprise scale.
- Experience with risk-based testing methodologies and shift-left quality strategy, resulting in proactive defect prevention.
- Background utilizing test automation frameworks and driving automation adoption across teams.
- Experience with Generative AI and/or AI/ML in a quality engineering or software development context.
- Knowledge of system and software architecture models, including analyzing system interdependencies and translating them into actionable test designs.
- Experience establishing QA program structure, coordinating cross-project testing initiatives, and optimizing quality investments.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Domain knowledge in Services, Operations, Supply Chain, and/or Logistics within a large enterprise environment.
- Background leading testing for SAP R/3 to S/4 HANA migrations.
- Experience supporting data privacy and regulatory compliance programs (e.g., PIPL, GDPR, PDPA), including validation of data handling controls and data governance processes.
- Familiarity working within a global organization and collaborating with geographically distributed teams.
- ISTQB, ASQ, or equivalent quality engineering certification.
- Ability to lead and influence without direct authority across engineering, product, and business stakeholders.
- Capability to distill technical complexity and communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences.
