- Hands-on experience prototyping, developing and integrating algorithm and signal processing code with software layer
- Experience with object-oriented programming and common software design patterns
- Excellent communication, presentation, and documentation skills
- MS/PhD with 3+ years of experience in algorithm integration or embedded/software systems
- Experience working at the HW/SW interface, including familiarity with firmware interfaces, driver layers, or OS-level integration
- Proven track-record in signal processing and machine learning, including areas such as time-series analysis, digital filtering, feature extraction, classification, regression, or neural network-based inference
- Track record of evaluating, integrating and deploying AI-powered developer tools
- Familiarity with cloud processing platforms such as AWS or GCP
- Strong cross-functional collaboration skills
Responsibilities
- Rapidly prototype sensing algorithms using signal processing and machine learning techniques
- Integrate algorithm implementations into the software stack to ensure robust end-to-end functionality
- Collaborate closely with algorithm engineers, firmware engineers, and software teams to bring prototypes into production-quality systems
- Lead efforts to identify, evaluate, and deploy AI tools that improve team productivity
- Define best practices for AI tool adoption within the group
- Collaborate cross-functionally to scale AI tool adoption efforts
Benefits
- Employees at Apple are often offered comprehensive benefits that support physical and mental well-being—flexible medical plans, confidential counseling, onsite wellness centers at major campuses, and resources for fitness and daily life. Families typically receive fertility support, paid parental leave with gradual return, caregiving leave, and dependent-care guidance, while financial perks commonly include stock grants (with purchase discounts), 401(k) matching, and income-protection coverage. Employees also see robust time off, Apple University learning and tuition reimbursement, donation matching and paid volunteer hours, and deep product and partner discounts.
