Help us build the data foundation for capacity planning across Apple's data and AI infrastructure. The Apple Data Platform organization is looking for a Data Engineer to build data pipelines, models, and analytical tools that help us understand infrastructure demand, utilization, capacity, and cost. The role will initially focus on third-party cloud infrastructure including GPUs, TPUs, compute, and storage and will expand over time to Apple-owned infrastructure. You will work closely with engineering, CIBO, Finance, and Procurement to help Apple make better infrastructure planning and investment decisions.

Description

As a Data Engineer focused on Capacity Planning, you will bring together infrastructure telemetry, workload demand, capacity commitments, and financial data into trusted datasets and data products. You will build the pipelines and analytical foundations used to understand current utilization, forecast future needs, identify capacity gaps, and improve infrastructure efficiency. You will partner with engineering and business teams to turn complex infrastructure data into actionable insights.","responsibilities":"Build and maintain data pipelines for infrastructure capacity, utilization, performance, and cost data.
