Do you want to help build some of the largest and most consequential enterprise and customer technology systems in the world? Join Apple’s Information Systems and Technology (IS&T) organization.

Supporting 2.5 billion active Apple devices, processing billions of secure transactions, and keeping the technology that defines modern life running flawlessly, IS&T makes the impossible feel effortless.Do you love building solutions to handle global complexity and immense scale? Imagine what you could do here. Retail and Marcom Engineering, an IS&T team, builds and operates the systems and experiences that connect Apple's products with its customers. The team owns the technology behind both Apple's online and physical stores and drives the interactive marketing experiences and tools that keep creative operations moving. Together, those functions deliver the technology behind every product story Apple tells and every purchase a customer makes.

Apple’s Marcom Engineering (ME) team builds the interactive brand experiences that bring Apple products to life online. We’re looking for a front-end engineer to join our team and play a key role in developing and maintaining our component library — the foundation that enables us to deliver high-quality experiences efficiently across Apple’s lines of business. You’ll work at the intersection of engineering and design, translating creative vision into performant, reusable UI components. This is a role for someone who cares deeply about craft, thinks in systems, and thrives when collaborating across disciplines. You will design, build, and maintain shared UI components that power Apple’s online brand experiences. Working on an engineering team that partners with design and creative teams on a project basis, you’ll ensure components are flexible enough to support varied use cases while maintaining Apple’s standard of quality. The team is currently transitioning from its existing front-end architecture codebase to React, so you’ll need to operate effectively in both environments.

Build and maintain shared UI components using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — with an increasing focus on React as the team transitions to a React-based architecture
Partner with design and creative teams on a project basis to define component APIs, variants, and interaction patterns
Work with engineering peers to establish patterns, review code, and improve shared tooling
Contribute to architectural decisions that help the library evolve across teams and projects

3 years of professional front-end development experience
Experience in semantic HTML5, modern CSS, and JavaScript (ES6+)
Experience building reusable UI components in both vanilla JS/HTML/CSS and framework-based environments
Familiarity with React or similar component-based frameworks, and Node.js-based tooling
Experience with package managers and build tools (NPM, webpack, Vite, or similar)
BS in Computer Science or a related field or equivalent job-related experience.

Experience building or maintaining a component library or design system
Proficiency with React, including component composition patterns and state management
Experience migrating an existing codebase to a React-based architecture
Skilled in CSS architecture at scale (BEM, CSS Modules, Styled Components, or similar)
Experience with performance optimization, accessibility (WCAG), and cross-browser testing
Familiarity with component documentation tooling (Storybook or equivalent)
Track record of introducing new patterns or technologies, or mentoring peers
Effective communicator who can work across both technical and creative teams
