Foundation ML Researcher (Silicon-Optimized Models)
Apple Oakbrook
Apple is seeking a world-class researcher to advance foundation models aligned with hardware efficiency and privacy, bridging research and product.
You will publish in top conferences, collaborate with a fast-growing team, and contribute to end-to-end voice and NLP capabilities on Apple platforms.
This role requires a PhD or equivalent and strong Python with DL frameworks; experience with JAX/PyTorch/TF is a plus.
