The role involves working within Apple's Responsible AI & Safety team to shape safety policies for global generative AI products. Candidates will collaborate with machine learning researchers, engineers, and design teams to enhance user experience while ensuring product innovation and user protection. The focus is on developing safety evaluations and addressing challenges in generative AI systems. This position requires a strong understanding of machine learning principles and a commitment to responsible AI practices.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of proven ability in machine learning, including work with generative models, NLP, or Computer Vision.
  • 4+ years of research or product deployment record in responsible AI, with publications in top ML venues.
  • Strong research fundamentals and development methodologies around LLMs, foundation models, and diffusion models.
  • Experience working with generative models for evaluation and product development.
  • PhD, MS, or BS in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or related fields.
  • Experience working in the Responsible AI space.
  • Curiosity about fairness and bias in generative AI systems.

Responsibilities

  • Collaborate closely with machine learning researchers and engineers to develop solutions for Apple products.
  • Produce safety evaluations that uphold Apple's Responsible AI values.
  • Conduct thoughtful data sampling, creation, and curation for evaluation datasets.
  • Provide high quality, detailed annotations and careful auto-grading to assess feature performance.
  • Analyze evaluation results to understand their implications for user experience.
  • Contribute successfully in a highly cross-functional environment.
  • Ship complex AI systems at a global scale.

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.
