Enable the potential of multimodal foundation and large language models for real-time human understanding on Apple devices
Requirements
- Experience with Robust API Design: Proven ability to design developer-facing APIs with a clear understanding of architectural tradeoffs, design patterns, and anti-patterns
- Experience with iOS/macOS development: Familiarity with Swift, SwiftUI, modern concurrency (e.g., structured concurrency with async/await), and Apple system frameworks such as Cocoa/Cocoa Touch, Core ML, Metal, and Accelerate
- Foundational understanding of machine learning: Solid grasp of ML algorithms and development pipelines, with the ability to work effectively with ML practitioners and integrate ML components into production systems
- Experience building internal developer tools: Hands-on experience developing tools such as test data visualization systems, debugging enhancements, and robust unit/integration testing frameworks to support engineering workflows
- Experience with live camera streaming applications: Understanding of real-time video pipelines, image transformations, and rendering loops
- Experience integrating on-device CV/ML algorithms: Familiarity with common computer vision techniques (e.g., object detection, segmentation, tracking, pose estimation), sequence models for real-time inference and FMs/LLMs optimized for on-device performance
- Experience with scene understanding and AR frameworks: Exposure to ARKit, RealityKit, or other 3D perception pipelines (e.g., LiDAR-based depth fusion, spatial tracking)
Responsibilities
- Designing robust, extensible architectures and APIs for engineering partners
- Developing applications and tools for algorithm evaluation, prototyping, and technology demonstrations
