Summary
Security is at the heart of every product Apple ships to customers.
Apple's Security Engineering & Architecture (SEAR) provides operating system security foundations across all of Apple's innovative products, including Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Apple TV.

Constantly being challenged to go beyond the norm to find new, innovative ways of solving problems and to make software safer, easier, and more fun to use. You can find all of this in one opportunity, and only at Apple.
You will work with and influence colleagues across Apple to ensure security continues to be at the forefront of our products. You will join a team of project managers committed to and passionate about our security technologies.
