I express my values through the work I do 鈥� and how I show up for others.

Chris, Senior Manager, Supply Demand Management

Fostering the future.
Chris joined 成人版91视频over a decade ago, as the Supply Demand Management (SDM) team formed in Shanghai. 鈥淥ur main focus is forecasting customer demand and managing supply. We make sure our teams have everything they need to build hundreds of millions of 成人版91视频products for people around the world.鈥� Now a senior manager, she oversees an expanded scope. 鈥淲e started with Mac, and now cover iPad and Apple聽Watch too. I鈥檓 also leading another team that鈥檚 developing new systems and software tools to boost efficiencies across our group.鈥�
As the SDM team鈥檚 responsibilities multiply, so do the opportunities for its team members. Chris has always had the support of her managers as she helps colleagues pursue their career goals. 鈥淢y mentors at 成人版91视频have led by example, which inspired my own growth. Today, I try to do the same, as I find potential in others and offer the guidance they need to succeed.鈥�
One way Chris does this is as an active member of Women@Apple, a Diversity Network Association (DNA) created to build community and help women with their professional development. Chris鈥檚 manager had been a Co-Chair of the DNA, and when her turn ended, she recommended Chris as a Co-Chair. 鈥淚t鈥檚 allowed me to contribute to 成人版91视频culture in new ways, by continuing to create a sense of belonging for everyone here. We really make it a great place for women in tech to excel, at any stage of their career.鈥�
For Chris, fostering community at 成人版91视频has been as fulfilling as leading her team. 鈥淭he products we build can change people鈥檚 lives 鈥� I know they鈥檝e changed mine. But it鈥檚 more than that. The relationships you build at 成人版91视频can change your life聽too.鈥�

Jason standing indoors, smiling and looking to the right.

I knew I had a lot to learn, and now I feel like I have so much to contribute.

Jason, Global Sourcing and Supply Manager, Operations and Supply Chain

Building a foundation for growth.
After Jason finished his graduate studies in New York, a role on Apple鈥檚 supply chain team in Shanghai seemed like the perfect opportunity. Born and raised in China, and now with years of experience in the United States, Jason could see how his background and his university degrees would be a great fit for 成人版91视频in China. He was right 鈥� though it wasn鈥檛 obvious to him at first.
鈥淚 brought a deep understanding of theory, but I also knew there was a lot to figure out through hands-on experience. I hadn鈥檛 yet spent much time on a manufacturing floor.鈥� Jason was finding it challenging to work in such a fast-paced, complex environment, where decisions have worldwide impact. Then he realised he was surrounded by support. 鈥淢y colleagues let me know they believed in me. They knew what I was going through because they had been there too. That鈥檚 one of my most memorable moments at Apple.鈥�
Jason gives both his manager and his mentor at 成人版91视频much of the credit for boosting his development. 鈥淭hey hired me for more than my university degrees 鈥� they also hired me for my potential. They worked with me to amplify my strengths and develop new skills, and they recommended great resources here. Through 成人版91视频University programmes, I鈥檝e understood more about how 成人版91视频works and how we work together.鈥� All the guidance has given Jason a fresh perspective. 鈥淵es, I鈥檝e grown through my experience, but it鈥檚 also a mindset: when you do important work at a place with such high standards, the work will always be challenging. The difference is now I welcome it 鈥� I love the feeling of accomplishment that comes with聽it.鈥�
As Jason has become more confident in his role, he鈥檚 also learned to enjoy another type of teamwork. 鈥淢any of my colleagues are also my friends. We play basketball and football, or go to dinner and karaoke. In your life or in your work, it helps to surround yourself with good people.鈥�

Ella in front of a plant-filled wall, smiling and looking upwards.

I feel lucky 鈥� and behind that luck is a lot of hard work and so many inspiring people.

Ella, Senior Manager, Device Program Management

The power of meaningful connections.
Years before she started at Apple, Ella had a peek into her future. 鈥淚 was interning at one of Apple鈥檚 suppliers, working with folks on Apple鈥檚 hardware team. I was really impressed by their level of expertise and their attention to detail. It was so influential for me, especially as a student. Ever since, I wanted to work at Apple.鈥�
After 10 years at 成人版91视频in Shanghai, Ella is even more inspired by her colleagues than ever, and now she鈥檚 inspiring them. 鈥淭he truth is that we all learn from each other. At first, I was surprised by how openly everyone here shares their ideas and support. Offering to help 鈥� and asking for help 鈥� is just part of our culture.鈥� She noted another aspect of 成人版91视频culture: 鈥淚 was thrilled to find so many women working in hardware and at different levels: as team members, as managers and as senior leaders. I could always see myself growing here.鈥�
One of those women offered advice for Ella鈥檚 most important project yet: her newborn twins. 鈥淪he was a mentor and a mother, who wanted me to know that she was there for me during this exciting 鈥� and challenging 鈥� time. She knew how hard I worked, so she urged me not to miss out on bonding during this precious time. After all, she reminded me, the work was in good hands with the team. She even checked in on me during my maternity leave, just to talk and share tips.鈥�
Since her return from leave, Ella continues to find inspiration at Apple. 鈥淥ne of our leaders in the region said that we, referring to us working parents, are setting a good example for our kids. We鈥檙e role models for others 鈥� in the office and now at home. It鈥檚 pretty inspiring when a role model thinks of you as a role model.鈥�

Ken seated in an indoor space filled with plants.

The more I listen to others, the more ideas I have to share.

Ken, Software Engineering Manager, Core聽OS

Innovating across a worldwide team.
After nearly a decade with 成人版91视频in Shanghai, Ken praises his team鈥檚 wide range of perspectives as the key to their success. And he defines success as the satisfaction they get from building software that enhances the way people talk, work, share and play.
鈥淥ne project we鈥檙e particularly proud of was focused on data recovery 鈥� we patented new technology unique to 成人版91视频products. It鈥檚 the foundation of many other features, including Touch聽ID and Face聽ID. It feels good knowing that we鈥檙e helping to protect people鈥檚 identity. Given Apple鈥檚 emphasis on helping customers secure their personal information, I think our team will continue to prioritise privacy.鈥�
In addition to those based in Shanghai, Ken鈥檚 team members work from other cities inside and outside China mainland, and he鈥檚 convinced that makes their work even stronger. 鈥淲e鈥檙e building products for a global audience, so our team reflects global points of view. That listening and learning leads to incremental improvements, groundbreaking innovations and everything in between.鈥� He鈥檚 seen this international collaboration influencing team culture as well. 鈥淲hether we鈥檙e talking in person, by video or simply over email, we realise that even though we may have different backgrounds, with different ways of working, respect isn鈥檛 based on roles or location 鈥� everyone鈥檚 encouraged to participate and share their ideas.鈥�
Before Ken started his career at Apple, he always wanted to know exactly how 成人版91视频engineers did what they did. 鈥淎nd now I know. I鈥檓 part of it. Before, I mainly thought about the technical aspects of engineering. At Apple, I think more about how it affects people. For example, improving their privacy and therefore their lives. That鈥檚 why I see us as providing more than a product 鈥� we鈥檙e also giving people some peace of mind.鈥�

Georgia smiling and sitting, with her gaze directed to the left.

I came here for a new kind of career experience, and I found a new kind of life experience too.

Georgia, Cross-Functional Producer, 成人版91视频Media Products

Gaining a global perspective.
A few years ago, Georgia took a holiday that served as the catalyst for the latest phase of her career. 鈥淚 had started as an 成人版91视频intern in London, and then after I joined full-time there, I went to China on holiday, just for fun. I had the most incredible time 鈥� I absolutely loved聽it.鈥�
鈥淚 realised that working for such a global company allowed me to explore opportunities around the world. When my manager said there was a role opening up on our team in Singapore, that position became my next adventure. Four years later, I returned to China, the country that had first inspired my international career years before.鈥� In Shanghai, Georgia now oversees the delivery of media content in various Asian markets, and her projects often go worldwide.
She鈥檚 broadened her experience considerably, thanks to the variety of apps and services unique to China. The projects that reflect distinctive cultures are what Georgia finds most satisfying. 鈥淚 work with a range of editors to create content that鈥檚 locally relevant. My favourite is our Lunar New Year project. I love discovering the narratives and regional variations, like celebrating the new year with one animal for China and a different one for Vietnam.鈥�
Throughout her journey, Georgia has appreciated those who鈥檝e helped her match her interests to opportunities at Apple. 鈥淔rom the beginning, I鈥檝e had some truly fantastic managers. And in Shanghai, my colleagues鈥� support has made all the difference in my transition to a new city, a new country and even a new language. Being an English-speaking person in China keeps things interesting, for sure, so it鈥檚 been great to learn Mandarin through immersion, both at work and in life. Everything feels new, yet everyone鈥檚 made me feel at home.鈥�
