You will be part of a team whose focus will be on applied machine learning, on building and deploying models that constantly advance the state-of-the-art. But that is only half the story! In Siri Attention & Invocation, we own our user journeys end-to-end. We measure the impact of our deployed models not just on pre-ship evaluation sets, but also post-ship on production traffic. We optimize error rates on existing data. We also define new metrics that take into account the user experience we want to deliver and apply them to the data that best represents the next feature we ship. And we are sometimes constrained by the limits of on-device computation — that is where your ability to innovate will be most impactful. You will collaborate with many dynamic, cross-functional teams consisting of software engineers and machine learning engineers/scientists. The ideal candidate will excel in both academic rigor and engineering efficacy, staying up-to-date with the latest research advancements as well as delivering reliable and robust models to all devices for all users around the world. If you are passionate about building outstanding products and using the full spectrum of your skills to extend the core technology that lets Siri understand, personalize, and interact in new and exciting ways, then we cannot wait to hear from you.
