  • Strong proficiency in Python and ML/data science libraries.
  • Applied knowledge of statistical data analysis, predictive modeling, and hypothesis testing.
  • Proficiency in SQL and experience with cloud data platforms like Snowflake or BigQuery.

  • Experience with Git and collaborative development workflows.
  • Familiarity with deployment frameworks and tools like Docker or Kubernetes.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Statistics, or a related field.
  • Advanced Degree (MS or Ph.D.) in a quantitative field is preferred.

Responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end insight development from data preparation to sales-ready insights.
  • Design and deploy ML models for forecasting and anomaly detection.
  • Build RCA and recommendation engines to enhance chatbot capabilities.
  • Support experimentation and A/B testing for new insight types.
  • Partner with AI engineers and PMs to scale features across regions.

  • 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.
