## Description

This is an ownership role. You will take on major systems in our evaluation platform, existing or new, and be accountable for its direction, quality, and adoption.

This role sits at the intersection of AI modeling, software engineering, and product quality.

We are expanding rapidly, so the ability to build a strong foundation and structure to any system is paramount. We are supporting features that encompass both product development and research, which requires a balance of respect for both the scientific process as well as the product release lifecycle.

Our systems connect many platforms and serve teams across Apple, so judgment with people matters as much as technical depth.
