Summary

Working at the intersection of product, entertainment and design, the Apple TV Content Design team is focused on building the absolute best TV experience possible for our users. From creative development for an award-winning shows or movie to brand design for a new sports league to influencing next year’s feature roadmap, our cross-discipline group partners closely with groups across Apple to improve TV App every day.

As the team dedicated to representing our subscribers, our Strategy practice extends across all of these discreet projects. If you’re excited about understanding why people love shows, movies & sports and how a new tv brand can make that experience better for them, this might be the right role for you.

You understand that different people might love the same show for distinct reasons—and are genuinely excited in figuring out exactly what those differences are.
