About this role
Apple is where individual imaginations gather together, committing to the values
that lead to great work. Every new product we build or service we create is the
result of us making each other’s ideas stronger. That happens because every one
of us shares a belief that we can make something wonderful and share it with the
world, changing lives for the better. It’s the diversity of our people and their
thinking that inspires the innovation that runs through everything we do. When
we bring everybody in, we can do the best work of our lives. Here, you’ll do
more than join something — you’ll add something! We are a team of computer
vision and machine learning (CVML) engineers building real-time 3D perception
and input systems for future Apple products. We are looking for a strong CVML
engineer with both 3D geometry and ML background, optimally with experience in
3D rigid/non-rigid object tracking, sensor fusion, or SLAM/VIO. In this role,
you will help design, build, and ship core 3D perception and input technologies
used by millions of users.
DESCRIPTION
You will work closely with CVML researchers and engineers to develop world-class
perception, spatial input, and 3D tracking algorithms and software. The role
focuses on inventing and implementing state of the art CVML algorithms to solve
cutting edge problems. As a member of a fast-paced team, you have the unique and
rewarding opportunity to shape upcoming products that will delight and inspire
millions of people every day.
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
Bachelor’s degree with 5+ years of relevant industry experience Strong
foundation in computer vision in one or multiple of these areas, including 3D
rigid/non-rigid object tracking, multi-view geometry, and visual-inertial
odometry (VIO) Proficiency in Python and deep learning frameworks such as
PyTorch
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
PhD in computer vision, machine learning, robotics, or related fields Experience
across both classical 3D computer vision and deep learning Familiarity with
visual-inertial or multi-sensor fusion Strong C++ and systems engineering
skills, with experience delivering robust, efficient algorithms Self-motivated
with a proven record of prioritization and on-time delivery
