Applied AI Engineer – Global Siri
Summary
Applied AI engineer on Apple's Global Siri team: designs, builds, and ships the data, models, evaluation, and deployment systems that bring Siri's AI features to new languages and markets. Day-to-day spans the full ML lifecycle in Python — LLMs/NLP, ASR/TTS, and daily agentic AI-assisted coding.
Siri AI talks with hundreds of millions of people in dozens of languages, and each market expects it to understand its language, culture, and context as well as a local would. It takes the right data, careful evaluation, models built for each locale, and systems that can do all of this across many markets at once.
The Global Siri team builds the next generation of Siri's AI agents for users around the world. We're looking for a strong AI engineer who works across the whole ML lifecycle (data, modeling, evaluation, and deployment) and uses agentic tools every day to get more productive to make Siri great in every language.
As an applied AI Engineer on Global Siri, you'll work closely with Siri's modeling, evaluation, data science, and deployment teams. You'll also partner with Apple's Modeling, ML platform, and safety teams. You'll design, build, and ship the data, models, and systems that bring Siri's AI features to new languages and markets and keep raising quality in the markets we already serve.
