TL;DR · Data Scientist, AI/ML Model Quality

As a Data Scientist specializing in AI/ML Model Quality at Wallet, Payments, and Commerce, you will join a dedicated team focused on ensuring the integrity of large-scale machine learning systems. Your primary responsibilities include curating gold-standard datasets for model evaluation, auditing training data for bias and fairness, defining key quality metrics, and designing automated validation frameworks. You will collaborate closely with ML Engineering, Data Engineering, Privacy, and Legal teams to maintain robust monitoring pipelines that detect silent degradation and feature drift in both conventional ML models and generative AI systems. Proficiency in Python (Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn), SQL, and distributed computing frameworks like PySpark is essential, along with a solid understanding of statistical methods for data quality assurance. This role demands expertise in defining observability metrics and leading telemetry analysis to ensure that Apple's financial features are built on the highest-quality data, impacting hundreds of millions of users globally.

What you'll do

  • Curate and maintain gold-standard datasets for model evaluation across ML and GenAI systems.
  • Audit training data for bias and fairness gaps before deployment.
  • Define and track key data quality metrics for engineering and leadership reporting.
  • Design automated data quality rules and thresholds in collaboration with Data Engineering.
  • Define observability metrics to monitor silent degradation, feature drift, and model performance.
  • Develop observability dashboards for real-time monitoring of model health across systems.
  • Identify degradation patterns in GenAI systems through systematic telemetry analysis.

What we're looking for

  • 3+ years of experience in data science focusing on data quality and model evaluation.
  • Strong proficiency in Python for complex data analysis and validation using Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn.
  • Experience with large-scale dataset querying and analysis using distributed computing frameworks like PySpark or Spark.
  • Solid understanding of statistical methods including hypothesis testing, distribution analysis, and data drift detection.
  • Familiarity with defining and tracking ML model health metrics in production environments.
  • Knowledge of GenAI systems and common quality failure modes.
