Apple AIML - Machine Learning Engineer Data ML Innovation 
United States, Washington, Seattle 
885179880

18.11.2024
Description
As a Machine Learning (ML) Engineer, you will be entrusted with the critical role of applying innovative research in ML to tackle complex data annotation and product evaluation problems. The solutions you develop will significantly impact future Apple products and the broader ML development ecosystem. You will work with a multidisciplinary team to build machine-based grading models which help reduce annotation costs and turnaround time, and to build pipelines which help automate the assessment of quality of data used for training foundational models and adapter models to power Apple products. You will have the opportunity to showcase your groundbreaking research work by publishing and presenting at premier academic venues. Your work may span a variety of topics, including but not limited to: Using internal and external (including open source and enterprise-licensed) LLM’s to build grading models and integrate the grading models into the evaluation pipelines to reduce turnaround time and automate evaluation of quality of curated data, improvement of foundation models, performance of adapter models, etc. Conducting research to improve efficacy of data curation through identifying grading errors, bias, distribution disparity between training and applications, thus, improve scaling of model performances with respect to data size and model size. Uncovering patterns in data and using modern statistical and ML-based methods to model data distributions. This will aid in discovering anomaly for mitigation and understanding model performance caveats caused by out-of-distribution samples and edge cases. Employing data selection techniques such as novelty detection, active learning, and core-set selection for diverse data types like images, 3D models, natural language, and audio.
Minimum Qualifications
  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills with a focus on the user experience.
  • 5+ years of experience with developing and evaluating ML applications, and demonstrated experience in understanding and improving data quality.
  • Experience writing automated unit, integration, and acceptance tests, and using continuous integration systems.
