About The Position

At Apple, we work every day to build products that enrich people's lives. The Graphics, Games, and Machine Learning (GGML) Software EPM team is seeking an experienced manager to lead a team of project managers who are responsible for driving delivery of innovative, high-performance ML developer frameworks and OS features for our users. The On-Device Machine Learning team at Apple is responsible for enabling the Research to Production lifecycle of cutting edge machine learning models that power magical user experiences on Apple's hardware and software platforms. Apple is the best place to do on-device machine learning, and this team sits at the heart of that discipline, interfacing with research, SW engineering, HW engineering, and products. The team builds critical infrastructure that begins with onboarding the latest machine learning architectures to Apple devices, optimization toolkits to optimize these models to better suit the target devices, machine learning compilers and runtimes to execute these models as efficiently as possible, and the benchmarking, analysis and debugging toolchain needed to improve on new model iterations. This infrastructure underpins most of Apple's critical machine learning workflows across Camera, Siri, Health, Vision, etc., and as such is an integral part of Apple Intelligence. If you relish responsibility and are excited by the opportunity to lead a team that builds core on-device inference software that delight millions of customers then we want to hear from you - please apply!
