Role Number:200562382
Apple is a place where extraordinary people gather to do their best work. Together we build products and experiences people once couldn’t have envisioned - and now can’t imagine living without. Are you excited by the idea of making a real impact? Are you prepared to dream big? Then a career with Apple might be your dream job! The Apple Product Operations team has developed a 23-month graduate programme. Our graduate programme is designed to give you exposure to the key functions of Product Operations including manufacturing engineering, quality, test engineering, software development, production and New Product Introduction! As a participant in our programme, you will initially spend time training with us at our manufacturing centre of excellence in Cork, Ireland alongside expert engineering professionals. Here, we will support you with a mix of on-the-job, mentoring and formal training in an innovative manufacturing environment. After this period, you’ll be given an opportunity to work on different Apple products and processes in manufacturing locations in Europe and Asia, as well as engagement with engineering teams in Apple’s headquarters in California, to understand the broader aspects of Manufacturing Operations. You may have the opportunity to travel, and relocate to other locations as part of this Programme (US/Asia). We will support you throughout these relocations as part of the Graduate Programme. If you have strong technical skills, an educational background in engineering and love working with other people, then this could be an amazing opportunity to come and work with us. We’d love to hear from you.
