The Apple Video Services teams created and manage the Apple TV app, which redefined and refined the way people watch their favorite shows, movies and so much more - including everything we love from the major subscription services. Today, these teams also manage one of the most exciting new realms at Apple: They bring viewers the critically acclaimed and award winning Apple Originals in Apple TV+. And they've engineered it so it can be enjoyed not only on Apple devices, but also directly on many new televisions and third-party streaming devices. To deliver Apple-level quality on a global scale, these engineers employ talent and tools to smoothly ingest and process a wide array of data. They work cross-functionally to handle video flow from content ingestion, store services, playback, and virtually everything else it takes to make the experience as seamless as possible.
