About this role

Machine Learning Algorithm Engineer - Auto Focus Cupertino, United States of America Are you passionate about shaping the future of computational photography and video for billions of users worldwide? Apple's Camera Algorithm team is seeking an extraordinary and highly experienced Machine Learning Engineer to drive groundbreaking machine learning-based technologies that help define the photographic and cinematic real-time auto-focus (AF) capture experience across all of Apple's camera products. As a technical leader within the team, you will own the end-to-end architecture, rapid prototyping, and productization of advanced machine learning-based auto-focus algorithms. You will maneuver through ambiguity independently to drive the long-term ML roadmap for AF, spearheading the design of novel learning-based systems integrated on Apple camera platforms which achieve seamless auto-focus user experience in any scene condition in both bright and low light. You will determine methods and procedures on complex projects, frequently acting as the representative for your area while leading cross-functional work to deploy enhanced machine learning based AF features. This includes coordinating the activities of sub-teams to create sophisticated architecture, training and tooling for machine learning based auto-focus development. You will partner deeply with the SOC architecture team to influence future silicon designs, the hardware team to evaluate new camera components impacting auto-focus, and the firmware team to optimize system-level flows for machine learning algorithms. The ideal candidate is a visionary problem-solver who thinks originally, resolves highly complex issues in creative ways, and is a proven mentor capable of inspiring innovation among others. Provide meaningful and significant contributions
