Machine Learning Engineer Notifications & Personalization

Our team is looking for you to help make iOS more intelligent proactive and personal. Our team is part of the core iOS experience using privacy preserving on-device intelligence to drive new experiences that touch the lives of millions of Apple customers every are responsible for personalizing core system experiences such as helping you manage and summarize notifications get the most relevant widgets in smart stacks as well as predicting your next our team you will bring expertise in machine learning and software engineering to train and deploy models that surprise and delight our customers every day.

You will work closely with talented Software and ML engineers on our team and across Apple to train deploy and evaluate machine learned models that power new experiences across iOS and all Apple we build the future of iOS you will be responsible for driving the development of the models and infrastructure that power intelligent system experiences. You will be responsible for providing technical leadership across a wide variety of products and features proposing and executing innovative solutions and improving our model training and evaluation pipelines in service of quality and future feature development. You will be a core participant in developing new models and architectures that result in high quality features while adhering to device power and performance are passionate about user experience and privacy. Our mission is to craft user experiences which leverage the power of machine learning and on-device intelligence to preserve our customers privacy. Come help build state-of-the art intelligence impacting over a billion users.
