We're seeking research interns to create breakthrough innovations in machine learning. We are particularly interested in efficiency of frontier models, including LLMs and diffusion models. You will work in an organization of world-class machine learning researchers and engineers. Our work powers cutting-edge technologies across the Apple ecosystem and is published in the most selective scientific journals and conferences.

You are in your final years of a PhD programme in Machine Learning and have already published some of your work at top-tier venues in the field. During your time with us, you will continue sharpening your research skills as we go through the various collaborative stages of an ML research project: Identifying a promising research opportunity, reviewing state-of-the-art methods and relevant literature, crafting novel approaches, implementing them as code prototypes, planning and running large-scale experiments across multi-node, multi-GPU systems, writing a paper, and seeing it through to submission. Topics of interest include but are not limited to frontier models, efficiency of LLM inference and training, on-device models, speculative decoding, contextual sparsity, quantization and compression. We are a team of best-in-the-world research scientists and engineers with deep experience in computer vision, machine learning, robotics, computer graphics, and related areas. We work on exciting new technologies that bring joy to millions of people. In our daily work, the team stays innovative, productive, and fun by sharing some key values: - Passion for the mission: We're here to make something extraordinary. We seek whatever work is right and strive for the best possible results. - Modesty: The right answer is more significant than being right. We search for solutions as a team and value clear-eyed feedback. - Lean habits: You can't grow without limits. Time constraints and big goals encourage us to sharpen our focus and learn to make phenomenal decisions.

At Apple, we're not all the same. And that's our greatest strength. We draw on the differences in who we are, what we've experienced, and how we think. Because to create products that serve everyone, we believe in including everyone. Therefore, we are committed to treating all applicants fairly and equally. We will work with applicants to make any reasonable accommodations.

At Apple, we believe accessibility is a fundamental human right. You’ll find that idea reflected in everything here — in our culture, our benefits and our digital tools. By welcoming as many perspectives as possible, we help you build a career where you feel like you belong.
