* Great support doesn't just fix issues, it helps avert them. As the Customer Experience Engineering Manager for Apple Services, you'll lead a team shaping how millions experience Apple Care One, Apple Care+, App Store, Apple Music, Apple TV, Podcasts, Fitness+, and more.

As the CXE Team Manager, you'll lead a global team of analysts and subject matter experts who sit squarely between customers and the product teams building these services.
