Software Engineer, Sensing & Connectivity

The Motion & Interaction team designs and delivers intuitive customer experiences through motion sensing. When you simply raise your wrist, shake your head, or move your device to interact, its the work of engineers and scientists on this team. Our fingerprints can be found across core capabilities and experiences on iPhone, Watch, AirPods, Vision Pro, and other Apple products. We are a multidisciplinary team, uniting expertise in algorithms, software, hardware, and design. We come from diverse backgrounds in software engineering, firmware development, machine learning, signal processing, controls, statistics, and more. Our environment values engineers who proactively seek responsibility for complex systems with deep technical challenges. We are seeking a self-motivated software engineer to help build Apples next-generation sensor fusion technologies and interactive experiences. In this role, you will design, implement, and maintain algorithms and APIs for iOS, watchOS, visionOS, and embedded systems, optimizing for power, memory, and real-time performance. You will work closely with scientists, engineers, project managers, and designers throughout the product lifecycle, shipping interactive features that impact millions of users daily. Youll have the opportunity to learn from experienced colleagues across multiple disciplines. Were looking for a lifelong learner who takes initiative, welcomes new challenges, and is eager to grow across a broad technical landscape.
