Senior Machine Learning Engineer, Developer Product Analytics

Apple Services Engineering powers the digital storefronts and partner platforms that millions rely on every day from the App Store Apple Music and Podcasts to the analytics platforms that serve the developers and artists who create for them (App Store Analytics Apple Music for Artists Podcast Analytics).nnThe Product Data Science team builds the statistical ML and AI-powered algorithms behind these platforms focused on content-partner analytics tools experimentation engines privacy-preserving analytics and charting systems used by millions of businesses and users are looking for a scientist who has shipped end-to-end ML solutions in production is driven to find the next high-impact problem and wants to do it at Apple scale.

Product Data Science sits within Apple Services Engineering the org that runs Apples content platforms end-to-end. The team builds the intelligence layer behind partner-facing analytics applications and Apples global content examples of our work include a Bayesian experimentation engine that powers Product Page Optimization in App Store Analytics and differential privacy solutions behind the Peer-Group Benchmarks feature giving developers privacy-safe performance insights they could not get anywhere stay close to the research and encourage the team to do the same whether in Bayesian methods privacy-preserving ML or applied AI. There are regular opportunities to present work at internal tech talks and external conferences. We care deeply about translating research into features that give content partners materially useful insights and help users discover more of what Apples platforms have to offer.

Work with product managers cross-functional engineering teams and business partners across time zones to identify high-impact the full scientific product lifecycle: problem framing data exploration algorithm design model training and production 0-to-1 features end-to-end from problem framing through production your work as features used by content partners businesses and users conviction with senior product and engineering stakeholders and drive technical direction research into features that deliver materially useful insights to content partners and users.

First-principles understanding of the methods you use: able to explain why an algorithm works its assumptions and where it across multiple ML domains: supervised and unsupervised learning deep learning time-series modeling and Bayesian -quality software engineering in Python including reusable service design and the full deployment taking 0-to-1 features end-to-end: problem framing algorithm design and production or PhD in Statistics Computer Science Machine Learning or a related quantitative field. Candidates with equivalent industry experience will be considered.

3-5 years of industry experience designing and deploying ML or statistical solutions in with differential privacy causal inference or statistical experimentation (A/B testing Bayesian experimentation).nFamiliarity with distributed data platforms and web-scale to applied AI LLMs and agentic engineering experience in Scala or think in user outcomes not model clearly across technical and non-technical audiences and across time working independently and collaboratively in a geographically distributed cross-functional org.
