Imagine what you could do here. At Apple, new ideas quickly become platforms and capabilities that shape how the company operates at global scale. Bring passion, technical depth, and strong leadership, and there's no limit to the impact you can have. The Finance Data and Technology (FDT) organization is seeking a Senior Engineering Manager to lead our Foundations team - the engineering force multiplier for every business-facing product and delivery pod across Finance. This team builds the shared platforms, frameworks, data services, and AI capabilities that let other teams move fast without sacrificing security, scale, or reliability.

Description

In this role, you will own the strategy, architecture, and execution of finance platforms spanning cloud infrastructure, data, application frameworks, and AI. You will bring proven, hands-on experience taking agentic AI systems from prototype to production, ideally in a finance or highly regulated setting, and you will use that experience to set the standard for how Finance adopts AI responsibly and at scale. You will operate at executive altitude, partnering closely with Enterprise IT (IS&T), security, privacy, and business-facing engineering leaders to align investment and priorities. You will lead with clarity, operate comfortably in ambiguity, and build a team that treats reusable platforms, not one-off projects, as the default way of working.","responsibilities":"Own strategy, architecture, and execution for the Foundations platform, including cloud infrastructure, data platforms, application frameworks, developer tooling, and AI/ML services.
