Summary
Join the HWTE Computer Vision and Machine Learning (CVML) team and play a key role in shaping the future of Apple's products! Our team develops cutting-edge solutions for the inspection, metrology, and calibration of displays, cameras, and sensors across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Vision Pro, and upcoming products. Be among the first to witness the creation of Apple's newest products!
We are looking for a versatile engineer who can bridge AI automation with domain expertise in computer vision, image processing, sensor algorithms, or simulation pipelines. In this role, you will build intelligent AI-powered tools and interfaces that make our world-class algorithm and simulation pipelines accessible to every engineer in the organization, automate complex engineering workflows to dramatically improve team efficiency, and contribute to algorithm development for display, camera, motion sensor, or optical testing. Your work will directly multiply the productivity of the engineering team and transform how we operate across every stage of the product lifecycle.
If you are passionate about applying modern AI tools — such as large language models, AI agents, and generative AI — to solve real-world engineering challenges, we want to hear from you!
Description
You will design, develop, and deploy AI-powered tools that democratize access to complex algorithm and simulation pipelines, automate multi-step workflows, and capture expert domain knowledge into durable, reusable systems. You will also contribute hands-on to computer vision, image processing, deep learning, and sensor algorithm development for display, camera, or motion sensor testing.
