Apple's Finance Transformation Org is seeking an experienced and highly motivated Operations Finance Process and Technology Expert to lead the strategic development, implementation, and optimization of technology solutions supporting our global operations finance processes. As a process and technology expert, you'll understand the finance processes and systems supporting Apple's operations, supply-chain and logistics functions, re-engineer, optimize and build new generationtechnology solutions that will power Apple's Operations finance functions into the future, ensuring high standards of technical quality, development rigor, and delivery accountability. This role sits at the heart of a major transformation model to drive strategic outcomes at Apple's scale.

This role will be critical in driving process optimization, efficiency, scalability, and innovation across the finance org supporting Engineering, Operations, Supply-Chain, AppleCare and logistics functions. The role will drive end-to-end delivery of complex, cross-functional AI/ML and Ops finance programs by owning technical solution roadmaps, milestones, and execution across engineering, product, and business teams to ensure on-time, high-quality launches. You'll dive deep into technical designs, data, and system architecture, infrastructure and Cloud based solutions alongside engineers and data scientists, leveraging their knowledge of software engineering, GenAI, MLOps, and agentic AI to unblock issues, manage risks, and make informed prioritization trade-offs. They align diverse stakeholders through clear communication, data-driven decision-making, and structured executive narratives continuously improving processes to increase velocity and translate technical complexity into measurable business impact. The ideal candidate will possess an understanding of supply-chain and operations business processes, enterprise-level technology platforms, and have a proven track record of delivering complex technology projects with an emphasis on Process Innovation & Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. You will create an environment where the right technology - whether data pipelines, AI-powered automation, or custom tooling-is applied to the right problem to drive scalable, well-architected outcomes. You'll work closely with the Ops Finance Transformation Lead, Operations Finance leaders, and technology partners including FDT, ETS and IS&T.
