The success we strive for will result from very skilled people working in an environment that cultivates creativity, partnership, and thinking of old problems in new ways.

Our team utilizes radio signals, such as Ultra-Wideband (UWB), to develop features and experiences like AirTag precision finding, Handoff, the Nearby Interaction API, and digital car keys. We are dedicated to innovating and creating new ways for our devices to be spatially aware of each other, enabling more intuitive interactions. We are a dynamic and collaborative group that supports Apple in a hands-on environment across interdisciplinary areas, including UWB, WiFi, Bluetooth localization, inertial fusion, network adjustment, and AI/ML. We are looking for an enthusiastic and creative Estimation Scientist with a computer science, electrical engineering, or geomatics engineering background to help craft the next generation of spatial awareness experiences leveraging Apple's technologies.
