## Job description

AI systems are only as trustworthy as the methods used to evaluate them. At Apple, where AI powers experiences for billions of people, getting evaluation right is not a support function. It is a foundational. Join Apple Services Engineering to build the next generation of AI evaluation systems. We are building the scientific foundation and self-service tools for how AI evaluation is done at scale, spanning LLMs, agentic systems, and human-AI interaction.

We are looking for a Lead Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) to lead the solutions and adoption strategy for our organization. In this highly strategic, hybrid role, you will act as the connective tissue between our science, platform engineering, and partner teams, transforming complex workflows into intuitive, developer-first platforms.
