Summary

Apple Cloud AI Platform powers the machine learning, AI, and data systems behind intelligent experiences across Apple's consumer products. We are looking for a Software Engineer who is eager to build the tools, interfaces, and workflows that ML developers and researchers use every day from intuitive front-end experiences to backend services and ML integrations at Apple scale. This is a great opportunity for an early-career engineer who wants to grow across the full stack from building intuitive UIs for internal platforms to integrating ML services and workflows into production systems working at Apple scale.

Description

In this role you will work alongside a team of senior engineers to build and ship features across our AI and Data platform. You will contribute to both internal front-end products that teams use to interact with our platform as well as the backend services and ML integrations that power them. You will be expected to take ownership of features end to end, write clean and tested code, and collaborate closely with teammates, product managers, and partner teams. You will grow quickly by working on real systems at Apple scale, with mentorship and clear paths to increased ownership.
