Preferred Qualifications Programming experience with Swift and familiarity with CoreML, CoreFoundation, and RealityKit frameworks. Fundamental knowledge of real-time video pipelines, image transformations, and rendering loops. Experience optimizing models for neural network accelerators (e.g., Apple Neural Engine or mobile GPUs). ## Description The incredible potential of multimodal foundation models and large language models has unlocked machine learning applications that were previously thought infeasible. The Video Computer Vision (VCV) group is looking for a highly motivated and skilled Machine Learning Systems Engineer to help us ship cutting-edge computer vision technology on Apple devices. The VCV organization has pioneered groundbreaking features like FaceID/FaceKit, Gaze/Hand Gesture Control, Body Tracking, and 2D/3D Scene Understanding fundamentally changing how millions of users interact with technology. We seamlessly balance research and product requirements to deliver pioneering, Apple-quality experiences. By innovating across the full stack and partnering closely with hardware, software, and AI teams, we shape future products and bring our architectural vision to life., As a member of the Video Computer Vision team, you will train, evaluate, and deploy purpose-built vision models on Apple hardware. You will develop innovative techniques to optimize model performance, efficiency, and scalability, ensuring a seamless user experience under strict on-device constraints. Responsibilities Develop on-device software that bridges multimodal AI models and computer vision technologies with production systems deployed across Apple devices. Optimize on-device inference latency, memory footprint, and computational efficiency of CV/ML models. Benchmark, profile, and evaluate the power consumption and thermal performance of models running on Apple silicon. ## Related Videos - [Focoos AI: Building the Future of Computer Vision](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1659-focoos-ai-building-the-future-of-computer-vision) - [Harnessing Apple Intelligence: Live Coding with Swift for iOS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1515-harnessing-apple-intelligence-live-coding-with-swift-for-ios) - [RPA in the Public Sector](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/86-rpa-in-the-public-sector) - [Photonic Computing: Programming a New Class of AI Accelerators (incl.
