Responsibilities
- Drive the direction, feature development, and technical strategy for location technologies and ML-driven product features.
- Design, build, evaluate, and refine production ML systems that infer device patterns from GPS, Wi-Fi, accelerometer, and semantic signals.
- Set multi-year technical roadmaps and make architectural and investment trade-offs with engineering, product, and research leadership.
- Translate ambiguous product goals into clear technical strategy and identify new opportunities for location intelligence across Apple products.
- Collaborate with teams across sensing, Siri, and apps to shape new and enhanced user experiences.
- Track metrics, test and iterate on system quality, and use the resulting experiences directly.
- Provide technical leadership for multi-engineer projects and mentor engineers to raise the team’s technical bar.
Requirements
- Experience building and shipping production software, including technical leadership of multi-engineer projects.
- Experience shipping production software for mobile or other resource-constrained devices with tight memory, CPU, and schedule constraints.
- Ability to create, analyze, and modify software functionality, ideally in C++, Objective-C, or Swift codebases.
- Experience working with large, noisy datasets and libraries such as NumPy, pandas, scikit-learn, PyTorch, or TensorFlow.
- Hands-on experience with applied probability, statistics, empirical algorithms, machine-learning algorithms, classical estimation, or signal processing.
- Strong understanding of supervised and unsupervised learning, regression, classification, clustering, and model evaluation techniques.
- Bachelor’s or graduate degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field.
- Track record of setting technical strategy and roadmaps for ML-driven product features and influencing decisions across organizations without direct authority.
- Experience as an industrial ML practitioner, mentoring and growing engineers, and building alignment with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Preferred experience with location or wireless sensing technologies such as GPS/GNSS, WiFi, indoor localization, or discrete localization.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including presenting strategy and technical trade-offs to senior leadership.
