About the role

We're looking for someone who can own the Mac-specific layer end to end, from VM lifecycle to storage and image pipeline for fast cloning and snapshotting. You'll also integrate with and extend our fleet scheduler to manage an increasing number of VMs across the Apple Silicon fleet.

Responsibilities

  • Build a great macOS virtualization platform — pushing Apple’s Virtualization.framework to its limits on performance, cold-start times, and density
  • Own the Mac-specific layer end to end: VM lifecycle, host integration, and the storage and image pipeline for fast cloning and snapshotting
  • Integrate with and extend our fleet scheduler to place an ever growing number of VMs across the Apple Silicon fleet
  • Work across virtualization, scheduling, storage, and infrastructure to build fast, reliable, and scalable Apple Silicon environments
  • Ship, learn, and iterate quickly to enable developers to spin up isolated macOS environments in seconds and run demanding Apple ecosystem workloads at scale

Requirements

You should have hands-on virtualization experience (Virtualization.framework, KVM, QEMU, or similar) to solve problems that don’t have documented answers. You must have a strong bias to execution and be deeply curious about understanding how things work and how they can be improved.

Qualifications

  • Experience with macOS virtualization and Apple Silicon
  • Hands-on experience with Virtualization.framework, KVM, QEMU, or similar
  • Strong bias to execution and a deep curiosity about technology

Namespace Labs Culture

We're looking for people with grit—people who push through ambiguity, take ownership, and keep going when things get hard. You're deeply curious, driven to understand how things work and how they can be improved. Most importantly, you have a strong bias to execution: you don't wait for perfect conditions, you ship, learn, and iterate quickly.
