Join the Sensing Hardware Architecture team and define how billions of users interact with Apple's most iconic products, including iPhone, Apple Watch, and Vision Pro. Our team pioneers the sensor technologies that enable magical new experiences, turning physical actions like touch and motion into seamless digital responses. We are seeking a leader for our world-class algorithms team—the group that develops and delivers the foundational algorithms that bring our sensor hardware to life. Its unique strength lies in a pragmatic and forward-thinking philosophy: we artfully blend state-of-the-art AI/ML techniques with traditional signal processing and estimation theory to build the absolute best solution for every challenge. Whether the optimal approach is a classic algorithm, a deep neural network, or a sophisticated hybrid, our focus is always on delivering unparalleled performance and quality at scale. We embrace the most advanced tools from the AI/ML community to rapidly develop, optimize, and validate all of our solutions. As the leader of this team, you will have a rare opportunity to navigate this dynamic technical landscape. You will set the vision for how we solve sensing problems, guiding your team to make critical architectural decisions that have a massive impact. Your leadership will directly influence the next generation of Apple products, deploying solutions at a scale that is second to none.
