Machine Learning Engineer, Information Security

The Security ML Engineer will bring their expertise in machine learning to the problems and opportunities facing Information Security at Apple. You will contribute to the Autonomous Security program by developing production ready AI/ML systems using Apple’s internal platforms, cloud services, and local compute environments. You will translate research to design, building and deploying machine learning models for security use cases, leveraging generative AI, statistical modeling, reinforcement learning, and data science to address complex security challenges. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams including security teams, software engineers, and researchers to prototype and scale AI/ML driven security solutions. You will own end-to-end ML workflows: data exploration, model development, evaluation metrics design, deployment, and monitoring. Minimum Qualifications BSc or Masters degree in Machine Learning, Data Science, Computer Science, Information Security, Mathematics, Statistics, or related field. Strong programming skills in Python and Scala; experience with ML libraries such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, HuggingFace, and Scikit-learn. Hands-on experience with full ML model lifecycle: from experimentation to deployment and monitoring. Solid grasp of security fundamentals including network security, incident response, threat modeling, and vulnerability management. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present technical concepts clearly to varied audiences. Familiarity with CI/CD workflows and ML pipelines . Experience operating, and scaling production services in cloud native environments. Experience deploying models on CUDA devices using tools like TensorFlow or Torch. Proven experience building generative AI applications for real-world use cases. Preferred Qualifications Ph.D. in a technical field such as Computer Science, Engineering, Statistics, or related disciplines. In-depth knowledge of ML algorithms, including supervised/unsupervised learning, deep learning (CNNs, RNNs, LSTMs), and large language models. Industry experience in deploying ML and generative AI solutions in cybersecurity contexts. Familiarity with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, GCP) and their security offerings is a plus. Experience with large scale data processing and analysis using tools such as Apache Spark. Experience working in a key security process, such as Incident Response, Threat Intelligence, or Vulnerability Management. Experience with specific security tools and technologies (e.g., SIEM, IDS/IPS, endpoint security solutions). Contributions to open-source security or machine learning projects. Publications or talks at top-tier ML or security conferences. Additional proficiency in C++ or Swift is a plus
