Job description

iOS/tvOS Software Engineer, Siri Home Devices

Cupertino, California, United States Software and Services

Join the team redefining what a deeply personal and integrated assistant can be. As part of the Siri organization, you will help shape one of the world's most widely used AI assistants, powered by our next-generation of Apple Intelligence, with capabilities like personal context understanding and on-screen awareness, built with privacy from the ground up. Your work will have direct, meaningful impact for users across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and visionOS. This is a rare opportunity to build at the intersection of cutting-edge AI and human-centered design, shipping technology that is centered around users and their needs. Join the team building the future of virtual assistants in the home. As an engineer on our Siri Home Devices team, you'll create experiences that millions use daily on Apple TV and HomePod—making powerful technology feel natural, intuitive, and accessible to everyone. We're seeking engineers passionate about virtual assistants who are excited to solve complex challenges where software integrates into everyday life.

Description

As a Software Engineer on the Siri Home Devices team, you'll build Siri across both the iOS & tvOS software stacks, from UI down to the frameworks. You'll collaborate with teams across the Siri stack—Experiences, Orchestration, Knowledge/Answers, System Experience, and Apple's apps teams—to create experiences that will surprise and delight millions of users. You'll get exposure to the full Siri stack and the kind of complex, cross-functional work that accelerates careers.

How you'll grow: You'll start with well-scoped work and strong support: design reviews, pairing sessions, and code review from senior engineers who know the platform deeply. As you ship and build judgment, you'll take on broader ownership—larger features, architectural contributions, and more open-ended problems. You might thrive here if you seek out feedback and incorporate it quickly. You ramp into new systems fast and enjoy learning large codebases. You can make progress when requirements evolve and you ask good questions early. You take ownership of outcomes, not just tasks, and follow through. You communicate clearly and directly, especially when something is uncertain.

Technology: We use Swift and Objective-C, though new development is primarily Swift. You don't need Objective-C expertise, but you should be comfortable learning and contributing in a mixed codebase.

Minimum Qualifications

• B.S. in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
• Experience shipping iOS or tvOS software in production
• Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools or building lightweight automation to accelerate your work.
• Proficiency in Swift with strong software design fundamentals
• Demonstrated ability to systematically debug and resolve software issues
• Strong communication and collaborative skills working in a cross-functional environment
• Ability to work onsite at Apple Park in Cupertino, CA three days per week

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience building UI with UIKit and/or SwiftUI.
• Comfort working in mixed Swift and Objective-C codebases.
• Experience in voice assistant technologies or conversational AI systems.
• Experience with automated testing (Swift Testing, XCTest, XCUITest).
• Experience with performance profiling (latency, memory, responsiveness).
