Imagine what we could do together. 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 we could accomplish!

At Apple, the details matter and nowhere is that more true than in the data that shapes how millions of people experience Apple TV every day. The Apple Services Engineering Analytics QA team makes sure that data is trustworthy across every platform Apple TV calls home: iOS, i PadOS, macOS, tvOS, visionOS, and web. We're looking for a QA Analytics Engineer who's excited by that challenge. This is a rare mix of skills and we know it. You might come from a client testing background, have deep experience with data and SQL, or somewhere in between. What matters most is that you're curious, thorough, and eager to grow.

Description

This role sits at the intersection of client testing and data validation. Day-to-day work spans testing on real devices, simulators, and direct data queries. When something looks off, we document it thoroughly, attaching queries, HAR files, and a clear explanation of what's broken and why. Test plans are detailed: platforms in scope, the specific fields under test, and how we're validating them. You'll work closely with client, server, and data engineers, EPMs, and stakeholders, so being able to communicate clearly across those groups is part of the job. The people who do best here are naturally curious, have a sharp eye for what doesn't add up in large datasets across multiple platforms, and are always looking for ways to automate the repetitive stuff so the team can focus on what actually requires human judgment.","responsibilities":"Validate analytics instrumentation across all Apple TV platforms using real devices, simulators, and direct data queries
