Software and Services

Turn the user experience into a human experience.

Apple engineers have always focused on one person when they build software — the person who will use it. Working with them, you’ll see why every Apple product and service feels intuitive and simple, and why every aspect of this group’s work is built around a respect for the customer’s needs.

As a manager for the core Bluetooth team in the Wireless Software Engineering group, Jason leads a team that creates and integrates Bluetooth technology into a wide array of Apple products. They were pioneers in designing the first Mac with totally wireless input devices, and they have built innovative cross-product features such as Handoff and Instant Hotspot. More recently, his team was intimately involved in the creation of AirPods. “Every project is a chance to improve on what we’ve already learned. To see all the cross-functional work, the relationships we’ve forged, and the software, firmware, and tools we’ve written come together in one product makes me incredibly proud.”
