Engineering Project Manager in London

Imagine the impact you could have. At Apple, innovation is more than a goal — it’s our way of life. Here, bold ideas become transformative products, services, and customer experiences. We thrive on collaboration, turning individual creativity into collective brilliance, and we believe that when passionate people come together, there’s no limit to what can be achieved.

Apple’s IS&T Retail Engineering team builds and operates the technology behind Apple’s global retail experience. We’re looking for a driven Engineering Project Manager with deep experience in fast-paced e-commerce or software development environments and a proven ability to deliver exceptional results. If you’re excited by the challenge of delivering high-quality work at scale, we invite you to explore what’s possible with us.

We are seeking an experienced Engineering Project Manager (EPM) to deliver complex engineering projects from initiation to completion, on time and within budget. Your projects will touch every layer of Apple’s retail technology worldwide — from the Apple Online Store, the Apple Store app, and point‑of‑sale systems to the cross‑functional platforms and integrations that power them. You’ll orchestrate collaboration across engineering, business, and partner teams, bringing the technical acumen and communication skills to bridge the gap between technical teams and business stakeholders.

What sets this role apart is the pace and variety: you’ll lead projects that range from planned platform initiatives to time‑sensitive regulatory deliveries, each with its own teams and technical landscape. The people you work with are distributed worldwide across multiple time zones, and the context changes often — building trust quickly, adapting to new domains, and being flexible with working hours when project needs dictate is part of the rhythm, not the exception. If that energises you — and you want to help define the experience millions of customers have every time they shop with Apple — this is the role.

Minimum Qualifications

• Relevant experience planning, managing, and successfully delivering cross‑functional engineering projects across all phases of the project lifecycle.
• Demonstrated experience delivering under tight deadlines with proven ability to take ownership independently and drive to completion with minimal direction.
• Strong understanding of software development lifecycle methodologies, system architecture, and integration patterns.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

Preferred Qualifications

• Hands‑on engineering experience or sufficient technical depth to actively shape architectural and technical decisions, including in situations that lack clear definition or immediate scope.
• Experience in a large‑scale enterprise technology environment supporting retail or e-commerce, with working familiarity across e-commerce platforms, payment systems, POS systems, or consumer‑facing retail applications.
• Proven ability to drive delivery and resolve dependencies across globally distributed teams and stakeholders, with a PM certification (e.g., PMP, Agile/Scrum, or hybrid Agile‑Waterfall) reflecting flexible methodology, and experience using Generative AI/LLM tools for documentation, reporting, and data synthesis.

At Apple, we're not all the same. And that's our greatest strength. We draw on the differences in who we are, what we've experienced and how we think. Because to create products that serve everyone, we believe in including everyone. Therefore, we are committed to treating all applicants fairly and equally. As a registered Disability Confident employer, we will work with applicants to make any reasonable accommodations. Apple will consider for employment all qualified applicants with criminal backgrounds in a manner consistent with applicable law.

At Apple, we believe accessibility is a fundamental human right. You’ll find that idea reflected in everything here — in our culture, our benefits and our digital tools. By welcoming as many perspectives as possible, we help you build a career where you feel like you belong.
