AI Engineer - Algorithm Evaluation & Agentic Systems

Sunnyvale, CA$150,400 – $277,600Posted Oct 12, 2026

Apply on company site View full job

How do we ensure Apple's next-generation AI products are robust, safe, and truly intelligent? Join the DAQ team to help answer that. We are seeking an AI Engineer specializing in algorithm evaluation and agentic systems design for advanced computer vision and video understanding algorithms.

What We Value

Production mindset: correctness, observability and maintainability

Ability to reason about system-level tradeoffs, not just model performance

Ability to balance experimentation speed with engineering rigor

Comfort working in ambiguous problem spaces and defining metrics from first principles

Clear communication of technical findings to both technical and non-technical audiences

Description

Within the DAQ team, our core mission is to evaluate and elevate advanced visual technologies. As a key member of this group, you will lead the benchmarking and integration of state-of-the-art models for image and video understanding. Rather than focusing on core model training, you will apply your deep CV and ML expertise to rigorously test models in applied settings, uncover edge-case failure modes, and architect advanced agentic systems. If you are passionate about AI safety, robust evaluation, and building autonomous multi-modal workflows that bridge experimentation with production, we'd love to hear from you.","responsibilities":"Algorithm Evaluation & Benchmarking: Design, build, and scale comprehensive evaluation pipelines. You will be responsible for both holistic end-to-end system evaluation and granular component-level testing to rigorously measure model capabilities on complex image and video understanding tasks.

Deep Failure Analysis: Leverage your CV and ML background to dive deep into model outputs, identifying root causes of visual hallucinations, temporal inconsistencies in video, and edge-case failures.

Agentic Architecture: Build, deploy, and evaluate agentic workflows that utilize these vision models to autonomously solve multi-step user problems (e.g., video summarization, visual search). You will heavily utilize component-level evaluation to isolate and triage exactly which parts of the agentic workflow (e.g., tool selection, memory retrieval, visual reasoning) are succeeding or failing.

Golden Data Curation: Lead the strategy for curating high-quality, schematized datasets and ground-truth benchmarks specifically tailored for evaluating multi-modal capabilities.

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with the core model training teams. You will provide them with actionable, data-driven insights and metrics to guide the next iteration of model training and fine-tuning.

Preferred Qualifications

Demonstrated ability to lead technical evaluation strategies end-to-end, drive architectural decisions for testing infrastructure, and mentor engineers.

Strong foundation in statistics, including hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, and experimental design

Knowledge of reinforcement learning, planning, or decision-making systems

Experience evaluating multi-modal or multi-agent systems

Prior work on AI reliability, safety, or benchmarking

Minimum Qualifications

MS and a minimum of 3 years relevant industry experience

3+ years of applied experience in Machine Learning, Computer Vision, or AI System Evaluation

Solid ML Foundation: Deep understanding of core Machine Learning principles, including probability, statistics, data distributions, and model bias/variance. You can apply statistical rigor to ensure evaluation metrics are meaningful and reliable.

Computer Vision Expertise: Deep theoretical and practical understanding of Computer Vision (CV) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs). You must understand how Vision Transformers (ViTs), spatial-temporal modeling, and image/video processing work under the hood to effectively evaluate them.

Advanced Evaluation Skills: Proven track record of defining robust metrics/KPIs and designing rigorous evaluation frameworks for generative AI or foundation models. Deep experience with custom benchmark creation, automated regression testing, LLM/VLM-as-a-judge methodologies, and human-in-the-loop evaluation.

Agentic Systems: Experience building and evaluating LLM/VLM-powered agents, including tool use, multi-step reasoning, planning, and memory management workflows.

Failure Analysis: Strong intuition for probing ML models to discover edge cases, hallucinations, and performance bottlenecks in constrained environments. Be able to translate findings into actionable improvement recommendations.

Engineering Excellence: Strong proficiency in Python and experience with deep learning frameworks (PyTorch) for running inference, extracting embeddings, and building scalable evaluation pipelines.

Pay & Benefits

At Apple, base pay is one part of our total compensation package and is determined within a range. This provides the opportunity to progress as you grow and develop within a role. The base pay range for this role is between $150,400 and $277,600, and your base pay will depend on your skills, qualifications, experience, and location.

Apple employees also have the opportunity to become an Apple shareholder through participation in Apple's discretionary employee stock programs. Apple employees are eligible for discretionary restricted stock unit awards, and can purchase Apple stock at a discount if voluntarily participating in Apple's Employee Stock Purchase Plan. You'll also receive benefits including: Comprehensive medical and dental coverage, retirement benefits, a range of discounted products and free services, and for formal education related to advancing your career at Apple, reimbursement for certain educational expenses - including tuition.
