Manager, UI Frameworks, Swift Platform Experience

About the role

You will be managing a small team of talented UI Frameworks engineers working across UIKit and SwiftUI. You and your team will be responsible for key areas of both frameworks and their shared underpinnings. Your team will be developing new features and fixing regressions across multiple platforms and releases. You will be involved in feature work and team planning and will also be expected to do some hands-on development. You will work with Swift Platform Experience leadership and the program management team to ensure that your work makes it into the build with a high level of quality. You will keep an eye on system maintainability and performance. You will help create testing tools and procedures that contribute to this endeavor. You will also be a steward of the new APIs and SPIs that are developed. Finally, you will be expected to work closely with HI on new designs that are being developed from release to release. UIKit and SwiftUI together power nearly every interface on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and beyond - spanning touch handling, animation, text, layout, and the high-level components that apps across the Apple ecosystem depend on every day. As part of the UI Frameworks team, you'll collaborate closely with Human Interface designers and partner frameworks, and help deliver the next generation of UI technologies. You'll work side by side with internal teams to create APIs that inspire developers and power incredible experiences. If you're motivated by clean architecture, thoughtful design, and making software that millions depend on every day - we'd love to hear from you.
