As a senior software engineer on the Siri team at Apple, you will play a pivotal role in designing the architecture for the next generation of Siri, focusing on low latency and high reliability by collaborating with machine learning teams to define input/output formats for large language models. Your day-to-day responsibilities include building debug tooling and evaluation systems that help developers and testers understand system internals, implementing morphological analysis to enhance Siri NLU systems, and creating Service Provider Interfaces (SPIs) for internal libraries. You will work extensively with Apple's proprietary technologies such as Dialog Framework, Siri NLU, and NLG, alongside advanced ML modeling and test engineering methodologies, contributing to the continuous improvement of one of the world’s most widely used voice assistants.

What you'll do

  • Design architecture for next generation of Siri to ensure low latency and high reliability.
  • Build debug tooling and evaluation system to aid developers and testers in inspecting internal workings.
  • Lead implementation of morphological analysis for Siri NLU, improving accuracy and performance.
  • Create Service Provider Interfaces (SPIs) for internal library, delivering detailed documentation.
  • Conduct software reviews and provide expert-level support to peers and cross-functional teams.

What we're looking for

  • Extensive experience in designing low-latency, high-reliability architecture for AI-driven applications like Siri.
  • Proficient in developing and integrating morphological analysis for natural language understanding (NLU) systems.
  • Expertise in creating Service Provider Interfaces (SPIs) for internal libraries used in proprietary software development.
  • Strong background in working with cross-functional teams to build debug tooling and evaluation systems for complex AI projects.
  • Deep knowledge of Apple's proprietary software engineering methodologies, including test engineering and machine learning modeling.
  • Experience in conducting strategic analysis and performance measurement for algorithmic improvements in AI features like Siri.
  • Skilled in performing daily software reviews and providing expert-level support to cross-functional teams.
