Creator Studio is seeking ML engineers to enhance Apple's professional creative apps by integrating machine intelligence that complements creators' intent. The team focuses on developing capabilities that improve user experiences across multiple applications. Engineers will work closely with designers and other teams to transform models into practical features that aid creative workflows. The role emphasizes balancing machine assistance with user control, making it essential to understand both product and modeling aspects.
Requirements
- 3+ years developing and shipping reliable, maintainable, testable code, or equivalent demonstrated experience.
- Hands-on experience applying LLMs or multimodal ML to real products or projects.
- Strong intuition for experimental design and statistical techniques to measure genuine effects.
- A strong product sense to evaluate the right user experience.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Experience building agentic systems or evaluation harnesses.
- Strong programming skills in Python and experience with deep-learning toolkits like PyTorch, JAX, or TensorFlow.
- Experience optimizing models for resource-constrained platforms such as Core ML.
- Experience with Swift and iOS/macOS development.
Responsibilities
- Define product features by integrating machine learning models into creative applications.
- Collaborate with designers, quality teams, and engineers to enhance user workflows.
- Evaluate and refine models to ensure they meet user needs in real projects.
- Measure the effectiveness of models and their impact on creative processes.
- Contribute to the development of agentic systems and tools that assist creators.
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.
