Apple's Security Engineering & Architecture organization is responsible for the security of all Apple products. Passionate about safeguarding our users, we believe that the best defense requires a phenomenal offense. When it comes to securing more than a billion devices running the world's most sophisticated operating systems, that means finding vulnerabilities first. Can you make a difference on this scale? Join our extraordinary team of security researchers and help protect all Apple users.

As a member of the team, one of your main responsibilities will be to conduct vulnerability research on Apple software, firmware and hardware components. Analyzing and exploiting vulnerabilities is also a key element of the role. This position requires someone with strong technical skills and a passion to secure systems by showing how they can be broken. If this is you, we'd love to hear from you.

Minimum Qualifications
  • Proven experience in vulnerability research and binary exploitation
  • Significant understanding of common vulnerability classes and exploitation techniques
  • Creative & effective problem-solving and analytical skills
