The posting

Summary

Apple Vision Pro is a spatial computer that blends digital content with your physical space, transforming how audiences experience movies, concerts, and live sports. Apple's Vision Products Group (VPG) is seeking a Software Quality Engineer to champion quality on Spatial computing devices for live and on-demand media experiences on visionOS platforms.

Description

In this role, you will serve as the voice of the end user for live sports, events, and spatial media on visionOS. You will shape the quality of our client software by planning and coordinating testing across complex development cycles, working closely with development engineers, production teams, and delivery partners.

You will develop test plans, run quality reviews, support design reviews, and lead bug triage through resolution on Apple client devices. You will support testing across the media lifecycle, from live capture and distribution to on-device playback, performance, and reliability, and you will assess stream health and playback stability for features such as 3D playback and Apple Immersive Video. During live events, you will help execute testing, coordinate with engineering partners, and drive issues through to resolution under operational timelines.

To scale coverage, you will partner with automation engineers, contribute to test automation as your skills grow, and use Generative AI tools to speed up log analysis, failure classification, and reporting. You will balance these with hands-on exploratory, reliability, and performance testing on visionOS hardware.

Responsibilities

Design and develop a new automated test suite for a new hardware and software product on Vision OS, intended for distribution to cross-functional teams as part of their validation workflows and CI pipelines Expand automated test coverage by authoring new tests within existing frameworks, building upon established tooling rather than starting from scratch Collaborate with fellow automation engineers to ensure new test work aligns with established team standards, coding practices, and architectural patterns Partner with cross-functional teams to support integration of the automated test suite into their continuous integration systems and pre-submission test passes Improve the reliability and stability of existing automated test suites through debugging, refactoring, and targeted enhancement

Minimum Qualifications

10 years in end-user client software quality engineering, media or video QA, with experience writing test plans and coordinating test passes and reviews across engineering teams. Familiarity with video streaming concepts (for example, HLS or DASH) and video formats (AVC, HEVC), with curiosity about spatial media playback. Experience leading and developing a team in a highly cross-functional environment. Understanding of test automation concepts and how automated tests fit into a quality strategy for OS frameworks such as AVKit and CoreMedia. Proficient at balancing multiple efforts simultaneously and meeting deadlines. Passionate about user-focused design, high-quality applications, and iterative refinement. Practical use of Generative AI tools to support test workflows, such as log analysis or report generation. Strong analytical and communication skills, with the ability to turn complex issues into clear bug reports and readiness summaries.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience building or maintaining automated test scripts, tools, or pipelines to run on Apple devices Familiarity with Apple platform tools (Xcode, Swift) and media frameworks (AVFoundation and other OS media frameworks). Working knowledge of visionOS, iOS, or macOS; experience debugging and profiling performance on client devices Experience with AR/VR, spatial computing devices Experience with CI/CD test pipelines; working across various OS media frameworks and platform teams. BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Broadcast Engineering, or equivalent experience.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • 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.
