AI Software Engineer, App Intelligence
Cupertino, CA - USA
Job Summary
In this role you will be at the forefront of developing software on device that enables Siri to deliver on app Intelligence throughout the OS. We bring app intelligence to Siri by working directly with app teams to understand what their apps can do modeling those capabilities so an assistant can use them well and building the on-device software that makes the resulting experiences reliable and fast. We partner closely with the team that builds Siris planning and execution engine and we work the app side of that partnership: what apps can offer how they express it and whether the resulting experience is good enough to trust. This is early work. How apps best expose themselves to an assistant is an open question you will help answer it by designing the interfaces proving them out with real app partners and iterating as we learn. Expect real ambiguity and expect to form your own view of the right architecture and defend it with working software and measured results.
