You'll manage a team that drives feature innovation for some of Apple's most crucial and frequently used experiences.

Join us in reimagining how people run their digital lives, where your key vision will directly influence how users stay connected and organized across the Apple ecosystem. In this role, you'll lead engineers who are product innovators first-identifying user struggles in email management, calendar workflows, and contact organization, then proposing and building solutions that directly impact product roadmaps. Your team will build new interaction paradigms for leading information overload, improving cross-platform synchronization, and enabling magnificent collaboration while ensuring experiences feel native and performant across iOS, macOS, and web platforms. You'll bring engineering perspective to early-stage discussions about the future of personal information management, influence feature prioritization based on technical possibilities, and drive innovation initiatives that span multiple product cycles. A key aspect of this position is encouraging a culture where engineers actively contribute to the product's strategy while building solutions that handle the scale and reliability requirements of serving hundreds of millions of users worldwide. This role requires someone who can balance leadership application thinking with hands-on technical leadership, ensuring that Apple's messaging and productivity suite continues to set the standard for intuitive, powerful personal information management across all platforms.
