The posting

Summary

We want the World to be a better place! Join our team and imagine what you could do here. At Apple, new ideas have a way of becoming extraordinary products, services, and customer experiences very quickly. Bring passion and dedication to your job and there's no telling what you could accomplish. Apple's worldwide events team informs the world about our innovative products and services and the values that drive our company. The team produces some of the most technically demanding and widely watched live productions in the world. As a broadcast engineer you'll sit at the center of it all, keeping the infrastructure that makes these moments possible running. We're seeking a hands-on broadcast engineer to work across permanent facilities and temporary event environments. You'll work at the intersection of traditional broadcast engineering and modern IP media systems, helping ensure the technical systems that carry video, audio, and data from source to screen are ready, reliable, and resilient when it matters most. Your work is directly visible, in the clarity of a signal path during a live keynote, in the run-book that guides a team through a flawless remote production, and in the infrastructure decisions that shape how Apple communicates at scale

Description

This role provides hands-on engineering support for broadcast facilities, transmission operation centers, and event production environments. You will work across live production, infrastructure readiness, signal routing, media transport, encoding, monitoring, and troubleshooting, with a strong focus on IP-based media workflows. You will partner with production, engineering, infosec, operations, vendors, and cross-functional teams to plan, deploy, operate, and maintain systems that support high-visibility events. This role requires sound technical judgment, clear communication, and the ability to stay focused under live production conditions. You should be comfortable moving between rack-level work, system configuration, documentation, real-time troubleshooting, and longer-term infrastructure improvement.

Responsibilities

Operate, maintain, and troubleshoot IP-based broadcast systems within facility transmission operation centers, ensuring readiness for live and pre-produced events. Deploy to remote event sites to support setup, signal path validation, system commissioning, and live engineering operations. Support end-to-end IP media workflows, including video and audio routing, ingest, play-out, encoding, contribution, and distribution feeds. Maintain and troubleshoot IP and non-IP media systems and technologies. Assist broadcast network infrastructure and related services. Operate and maintain systems across broadcast platforms. Support Linux- and macOS-based systems used in broadcast operations, along with VMware-virtualized broadcast applications. Perform preventive maintenance, firmware management, equipment validation, and lifecycle planning for broadcast infrastructure. Create and maintain technical documentation, including signal flow diagrams, IP addressing plans, operational run-books, and support procedures. Resolve real-time technical issues during live events with clear escalation, communication, and decision-making. Evaluate emerging IP broadcast technologies and help guide practical improvements to the team’s infrastructure and workflows.

Minimum Qualifications

4+ years of hands-on broadcast engineering experience in live events, broadcast facilities, production operations, or similarly demanding media environments. Direct experience operating or supporting one or more broadcast platforms such as Imagine, Evertz, TAG, Providius, EVS, AWS Elemental, Ateme, Appear, or Nimbra. Working knowledge of IP media transport technologies, including SMPTE ST 2110, NMOS IS-04/05, JPEG-XS, SRT, AES67 and Dante. An understanding of IP networking in a broadcast context, including multicast, PTP/IEEE 1588, VLANs, QoS, IGMP. Hands-on experience with network infrastructure in a broadcast, media, or production environment. You are comfortable administering, troubleshooting, and supporting Linux and macOS systems used in broadcast operations. You can diagnose signal, network, timing, and system issues under live production conditions. You communicate clearly with production, engineering, operations, and vendor teams, especially when priorities change or issues arise in real time. You use sound judgment to balance technical risk, production impact, and operational continuity. You are able to travel approximately 20% for remote event support.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with cloud media services or hybrid workflows, including AWS MediaConnect or related platforms. Familiarity with VMware virtualization supporting broadcast or media applications. Background supporting corporate events, technology-sector events, product launches, town halls, or executive communications. Experience contributing to technical operations center buildouts, facility upgrades, or infrastructure migrations. Scripting or automation experience with Python, Bash, or similar tools applied to broadcast infrastructure. Familiarity with professional broadcast communications systems, including intercom, IFB, and program audio distribution. Experience with Arista network infrastructure in a broadcast, media or production environment.

  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
