Apple Hiring Dev To Help Remake Maps App, Ditching Google Maps?

According to a new job listing for an iPhone Software Engineer, Apple is looking to remake the iPhone’s Maps application. The listing is unusually specific, asking for someone to help them take the built-in app to “the next level”. The new initiative may be related to Apple’s anticipated switch from powering the Maps app with Google Maps to using Placebase, a recently acquired company noted for differentiating themselves from Google Maps with the PushPin API.
