Apple Vision Pro is a revolutionary spatial computer that seamlessly blends digital content with your physical space. The Vision Pro Persona Team is looking for senior software engineers to help build one of Apple's most personal communication experiences on their next generation spatial computing platform, visionOS. As a senior engineer on the Vision Pro Persona team, you will play a significant role in defining and building the Persona experience, pushing you to think outside the box and work closely with designers and system software teams to solve incredibly challenging problems.
The team focuses on building the user experience and system architecture for Personas on Apple's new visionOS platform, deeply integrating Personas with FaceTime, SharePlay, and the visionOS platform as a whole. They deliver polished, delightful user experiences that foster real-time interaction as digital and spatial Personas.
You'll work mostly in Swift, SwiftUI, RealityKit, and Objective-C to build and refine Personas on visionOS. Successful engineers will be prepared to work from the applications layer down to the firmware, building and maintaining stable and performant code that serves as the bedrock of Personas on the platform.
This role requires a strong background in graphics, including 3D math, geometric processing, computer vision, and linear algebra. You should have experience with optimization, deep learning, and hands-on implementation of these techniques. The ideal candidate will have expertise with modern machine learning algorithms including generative models, experience with digital humans and neural rendering techniques, and a track record of building and shipping products or publications in relevant venues.
Apple offers a competitive compensation package, including base pay between $175,800 and $312,200, discretionary restricted stock unit awards, and various benefits such as comprehensive medical and dental coverage, retirement benefits, and educational reimbursement opportunities.
