Graduate roles: what they involve

The two listed graduate opportunities are software engineering internships in London. One focuses on privacy-preserving cloud infrastructure and distributed systems for iCloud, including a scoped project delivered with experienced engineers and Privacy and Security teams. The other works on the FoundationDB query engine behind CloudKit, with fault-tolerant distributed systems, customer-facing features, and the deployment, scaling and maintenance of high-throughput services.

These roles suit applicants interested in cloud services, distributed systems, scalable infrastructure, databases, privacy and security-focused engineering. The descriptions emphasise collaboration with experienced engineers and practical contribution to live technical work. They do not state specific qualifications or application requirements, so read each current advert carefully for any education, skills, experience or eligibility details before applying.

How to apply to the graduate scheme

The role descriptions do not set out application stages or selection steps. As a typical UK process, you may be asked to submit an online application and CV, answer role-related questions, complete an assessment, and attend interviews or technical discussions. Treat these as possible stages rather than confirmed requirements for these roles.

Check the employer’s careers site for the current process and the instructions on each advert. Tailor your application to the relevant description, using examples of software engineering, distributed systems, cloud, database, privacy or collaborative project work where these genuinely match your experience. Confirm the role’s location and read any information about right to work or immigration during the application.
