Would you like to play a part in shipping groundbreaking technology for large-scale systems, natural language, and artificial intelligence? Join the Siri AI Quality team at Apple! You will work with the people who craft the intelligent assistant that helps millions get things done-just by asking. We interact with various engineering teams to identify issues, drive the quality of Siri features, and build frameworks that support evaluation and qualification for some of the most advanced AI systems in the industry. As a Software Engineering Manager for Siri AI Quality, you will lead a team dedicated to validating the foundational layers of how users initiate and interact with Siri across the entire Apple ecosystem- including iPhone, iPad, Mac, CarPlay, and Watch. In this fast-paced and highly visible role, you will partner closely with software, machine learning, and audio engineering teams to define the quality strategy for critical first interactions, invocation experiences, and on device models. You will empower your team to adopt cutting-edge agentic AI systems and coding tools to accelerate test generation, automate issue triage, and shift testing left in the development lifecycle. By championing a culture of early testing and continuous evaluation, you will directly shape the intelligence, responsiveness, and end-to-end quality of a product used by millions worldwide.Lead a software quality engineering team to evaluate how users initiate and interact with Siri. across all platforms (iPhone, iPad, Mac, CarPlay, Watch).
