As an Algorithms Engineer, you will prototype and define interactions end-to-end, investigating emerging technologies and new interaction paradigms in close collaboration with HW, SW, and design partners. You will develop and validate algorithmic concepts, and drive the technical work needed to bring these ideas to life. You will take prototypes from concept to production, writing code that ships in Apple products used by millions of people every year. You are self-motivated, comfortable operating in ambiguity, and quick to build relationships across disciplines. You thrive in the space where the problem isn't fully defined and the solution doesn't exist yet.
