TL;DR · Senior AI Software Engineer, App Intelligence

The Senior AI Software Engineer, App Intelligence joins the App Intelligence team to develop on-device software enabling Siri to interact with various applications. You will lead the design and development of software features that allow Siri to understand and execute app capabilities, modeling these functions to ensure reliable and fast user experiences. Key responsibilities include developing ML models and AI-driven algorithms, running large-scale experiments on complex datasets, and optimizing for on-device latency, memory, and power budgets. You will utilize Python, Swift, Objective-C, C++, PyTorch, and SQL, while leveraging agentic coding tools like Claude Code. The role involves solving the technical challenge of how apps expose themselves to an assistant, designing interfaces, and building performant software stacks for on-device and cloud ML features.

What you'll do

  • Lead the design and development of software features that enable end-to-end app experiences in Siri.
  • Develop ML models and AI-driven algorithms to enhance app capabilities and Siri integration.
  • Run large-scale experiments on complex datasets to evaluate models and algorithms for app intelligence.
  • Research and design performant modeling approaches for both on-device and cloud environments.
  • Implement high-performance, debuggable code while maintaining strict on-device latency, memory, and power budgets.
  • Diagnose failures in end-to-end app experiences and convert them into measurable quality improvements.
  • Contribute to shared evaluation and telemetry loops to measure and prove improvements in user outcomes.
  • Design interfaces and architectural choices for the software stack to support ML and AI features.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree or foreign equivalent in Computer Science, EE, Applied Mathematics, or related field.
  • 6+ years of experience in developing ML / AI driven software.
  • Proficiency in one or more of the following programming languages: Python, Swift, Objective-C, or C++.
  • Experience developing software prototypes and features driven by Large Language Models and designing tool and function-calling interfaces.
  • Experience developing and evaluating ML Models and Algorithms using Python, PyTorch, and SQL.
  • Fluency with agentic coding tools like Claude Code for accelerating engineering productivity.
  • Experience designing and developing systems that are efficient in resource constrained environments (preferred).
  • Experience building key software components and APIs used cross functionally across different applications and platforms (preferred).
