Apple is where individual imaginations gather together, committing to the values that lead to great work. Every new product we build, service we create, or Apple Store experience we deliver 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 seeking a talented Computer Vision Researcher or Engineer specializing in generative models, particularly 2D and 3D generation. This role offers a unique opportunity to bridge cutting-edge research with practical application, developing industry-leading products that leverage advanced ML.
You’ll be working in a team of computer vision and machine learning researchers and engineers to build and implement world class 3D Generative Algorithms that pushes the state of the art. In this position, you will discover and build solutions to previously-unsolved challenges. We are looking for a driven and dedicated computer vision/machine learning engineer or researcher, optimally with experience in 3D Generative AI. 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.
- Inventing and implementing state of the art computer vision and 3D generative models to solve cutting edge problems
- Designing such algorithms to work reliably and efficiently on Apple products
- Collaborating with other teams in software and hardware to ensure the full pipeline runs efficiently and utilizes Apple hardware effectively
- Cooperating with your team members to prepare presentations, papers, and talks to explain your inventions
- Ph.D. in Computer Vision or Machine Learning, or M.Sc. in a related field with 4 years of experience
- Experience in developing and training 2D and 3D generative models (e.g. generating Images, Gaussian Splats, 3D objects, 3D scenes, Wold models)
- Solid experience in Python programming and deep learning frameworks like PyTorch
- Strong experience in machine learning, preferably in 3D computer vision
- Track record of successfully building and shipping products or open source projects
- Solid foundation in 3D geometry and linear algebra
- Experience in generative ML is a big plus
- Experience in C++ is a plus
- Experience in 3D graphics and rendering is a big plus
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills
