WWDR also offers programs to help developers connect with experts, learn about the latest Apple tools and technologies, and adopt best practices to supercharge app development. We are seeking a Configuration and Automation Engineer to help shape and scale the internal tooling that enables the review of millions of app submissions every year.

  • Define requirements for event-driven compute solutions (e.g., FaaS) that generate actions and insights from real-time signals
  • Partner with operations teams to understand workflows, identify bottlenecks, and identify data requirements
  • Debug and inspect apps, including network traffic and binary analysis, to identify automation opportunities
  • Query and process large-scale datasets using platforms like Trino and HDFS
  • 6+ years building backend automation, data systems, or internal tooling
  • JavaScript proficiency for scripting, data processing, and event-driven logic (not front-end development)
  • Experience with client-server architectures and dynamic UI configuration
  • Experience supporting high-volume operational workflows where users process large volumes of items
  • Proficiency with AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude Code) for rapid prototyping
  • Familiarity with Apple's SDK and app internals (binary analysis, control flow, network traffic)
  • Experience with event-driven compute or FaaS platforms
  • Experience querying large datasets with Trino, HDFS, or similar technologies
  • Python proficiency for data analysis and internal tooling
  • Proficiency in Python, particularly for data analysis.
