We are looking for seasoned AI Software Engineers to join our team and be part of this mission.\n\nDescription\n\nIn this role, you will be at the forefront of developing software on device that enables Siri to deliver on app Intelligence throughout the OS. We bring app intelligence to Siri by working directly with app teams to understand what their apps can do, modeling those capabilities so an assistant can use them well, and building the on-device software that makes the resulting experiences reliable and fast. We partner closely with the team that builds Siri's planning and execution engine, and we work the app side of that partnership: what apps can offer, how they express it, and whether the resulting experience is good enough to trust.\n\nThis is early work. How apps best expose themselves to an assistant is an open question - you will help answer it by designing the interfaces, proving them out with real app partners, and iterating as we learn.
