You will organize and lead teams to architect our evaluation methodology, translating ambiguous product requirements into concrete success metrics that determine if our models meet Apple's quality bar. Your work will directly influence product roadmaps and drive critical hill-climbing decisions that shape the AI experiences millions of users will interact with daily.
