Job Description
Summary
Our team utilizes radio signals, such as Ultra-Wideband (UWB), to develop features and experiences like AirTag precision finding, Handoff, the Nearby Interaction API, and digital car keys. We are dedicated to innovating and creating new ways for our devices to be spatially aware of each other, enabling more intuitive interactions. We are a dynamic and collaborative group that supports Apple in a hands-on environment across interdisciplinary areas, including UWB, WiFi, Bluetooth localization, inertial fusion, network adjustment, and AI/ML.
We are looking for an enthusiastic and creative Estimation Scientist with a computer science, electrical engineering, or geomatics engineering background to help craft the next generation of spatial awareness experiences leveraging Apple’s technologies.
Description
Minimum Qualifications
- Deep theoretical and practical understanding of estimation, especially as it applies to ranging and localization (e.g., least squares, Kalman filter, …)
- Strong background in mathematical fundamentals, including geometry, linear algebra, and statistics.
- Profound understanding of distance/location techniques, e.g., phase estimation, TOA, RTT, AOA, and TDOA.
- Strong software developer and prototyping experience in C++, Matlab/Python.
Preferred Qualifications
- Understanding of Machine Learning/Deep Learning is a plus
- iOS, OS X, application, and/or unix system development a plus
- Passion for learning new skills, techniques, and programming languages/libraries/frameworks.
- Desire to be exposed to all aspects of development: prototyping, planning, designing, productizing, launching, and scaling.
- Thrive in a collaborative environment and communicate effectively.
- Laser-focused on the minor details that are meaningful to our customers.
