Architect and build high-performance iOS applications integrating Large Language Models for on-device experiences.
We are seeking a senior iOS Software Engineer with deep experience building applications powered by Large Language Models (LLMs). This is a hands-on development role focused on creating the next generation of intelligent on-device experiences for Apple users.
You will be responsible for building cutting-edge iOS applications that serve as the primary interface for on-device AI. A key part of your role will be to explore and define the software architecture for a scalable, high-performance system that seamlessly integrates powerful LLM agents into the Apple ecosystem, all while prioritizing user privacy and on-device performance. This role is for an expert iOS developer passionate about building the foundational architecture for AI-driven applications.
This is a unique opportunity to define the future of intelligent applications at Apple. You will be at the center of building a new class of on-device experiences, setting the architectural foundation for how millions of users will interact with AI on a daily basis.
Description What you'll build:
Minimum Qualifications BS and 10+ years of professional software development with expert-level experience building high-performance, consumer-facing mobile applications and frameworks. Strong proficiency in a modern systems programming language such as C++, ObjectiveC/Swift, or Rust. Deep understanding of mobile system fundamentals: concurrency, memory management, and power optimization. Practical knowledge of how LLM-powered systems work, including agent frameworks and RAG architectures. Proficiency in AI-assisted development workflows, with experience going beyond simple code suggestions to tackle complex debugging, architectural trade-offs, or automation tasks.
Preferred Qualifications Experience with on-device ML frameworks like Core ML, Foundation Model, etc. Experience in SwiftUI and modern iOS architectural patterns. Knowledge of model quantization, caching, and other on-device optimization techniques. Experience with multi-platform development (e.g., building for both iOS and macOS).
