Senior Machine Learning Software Engineer - Computer Vision

Apple is where individual imaginations converge, united by values that drive exceptional innovation. Every product we develop and service we deliver emerges from our collective commitment to strengthening each other's ideas. This collaborative spirit stems from a shared conviction that we can create something extraordinary and deliver it to the world, transforming lives for the better. The diversity of our people and their perspectives fuels the innovation that permeates everything we accomplish.

When we embrace everyone's contributions, we achieve our finest work. Here, you will not simply join something; you will contribute something meaningful. Spatial computing represents a transformative frontier where digital experiences merge seamlessly with physical environments. Through advanced sensor fusion, edge computing architectures, and efficient on-device models, we are redefining how people interact with technology in their everyday lives. This evolution enables entirely new possibilities while maintaining genuine human connection.

Our computer vision and machine learning (CVML) team of researchers and engineers tackle previously unsolved technical challenges at the intersection of perception, intelligence, and real-time processing. We seek a driven and dedicated engineer with deep expertise in machine learning systems.
