Overview
The AppleJDK team in Services is responsible for the Java runtime, and our mission is to make Java Services both fast and secure. The Java runtime is complex, with many subsystems: JIT compilers, language runtime, multiple garbage collectors, and FFM interface for native apps. The interactions with native code must be memory safe. In this role, you will work across all areas of the runtime, focusing on improving security and stability. You will drive innovations in the Java Runtime and tools. You will also ensure the application of current best practices in the Java runtime, and work with Services at Apple scale.
