Apple's intelligent systems connect hardware, software, and services in ways that feel effortless and deeply personal. We're looking for an engineer who thrives at this intersection - someone who can design robust cloud infrastructure and services, build intelligent data pipelines, and turn complex, multi-modal data into clear and actionable insights.

You'll architect and operate the systems that power Apple's distributed AI experiences - from data pipelines processing large-scale device and server logs, to inference platforms hosting models for live and offline evaluation. Your work will help teams understand, optimize, and elevate the intelligence that drives Apple products.

Description

Our team works at the intersection of hardware, software, and intelligence. We design the systems, infrastructure, and tools that enable Apple's next generation of AI-driven experiences - from on-device middleware and distributed inference platforms to large-scale data pipelines, interactive analytics, and advanced developer tooling. We collaborate closely with hardware, robotics, ML, design, and platform teams to build end-to-end solutions that are performant, intuitive, and deeply integrated into Apple's ecosystem. The work is hands-on, highly cross-disciplinary, and central to shaping how Apple's intelligent systems evolve.","responsibilities":"Design, build, and maintain scalable cloud infrastructure and services supporting AI-driven products and experiments
