MacOS Applications Engineer

Scope of Assignment Positioned at the intersection of design, entertainment and technology, this unique team brings together a wide range of backgrounds, experiences and interests. They are a small, hands-on group building tools that streamline processes across multiple lines of business, where creative production meets software engineering. You will build and improve a suite of native macOS applications used in design production. Work is scoped at the start and wraps up with a shipped build, checked through the team's usual build, signing, release and testing steps. Alongside this, you will handle the maintenance, defect resolution, refactoring and rebuilds that come with the life cycle of each project. Your work spans native macOS tooling, Adobe design software, and Python file-processing scripts. You will also prototype new approaches within this stack as they emerge, testing each one against a real production need rather than exploring it in the abstract. In addition, you will build automation and integrations based on production requirements gathered from content design stakeholders, turning what's needed into tools that hold up in daily use. Each piece of work is scoped and delivered on its own, with revisions folded into the work cycle. If this excites you – we would love to hear from you.  Minimum Qualifications Strong Swift experience building and shipping native macOS applications. Experience with the Xcode build and release lifecycle. Experience processing, exporting, or otherwise manipulating video or images programmatically (e.g. AVFoundation, Core Image). Experience with SwiftUI and modern Swift concurrency (async/await). An innovative, open-minded approach to problem-solving — genuine curiosity about new technology and how it can reshape existing workflows, and comfort bringing new tools into daily practice as they emerge. Expertise with Git for version control and collaborative development. Strong communication skills, with the ability to work directly with non-engineering creative stakeholders. Experience working within Adobe Creative Cloud applications, including automating them. Familiarity with Python for broader automation and file processing. Experience with macOS auto-update frameworks. Experience building tools for a creative, media, or design production team. Preferred Qualifications Familiarity with Apple's Human Interface Guidelines for macOS. We regret to inform that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
