**Weekly Hours:** 40

**Role Number:** 200678347-0836

**Summary**

Every iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Vision Pro, and Apple TV runs on the compute and graphics software foundation built by Apple’s Graphics, Games, and Machine Learning team. The Pre-silicon Compute Frameworks team sits at the leading edge of that work designing the Metal and Metal compute frameworks and validating performance for features that will define future Apple Silicon GPUs.

We’re looking for an engineering manager with a strong technical background who’s excited to build and lead a team of engineers, and to partner with software and hardware leaders to shape Apple's GPU compute roadmap!

**Description**

As manager of the Pre-silicon Compute Frameworks team, you own the new APIs for Apple’s next GPU generations. You will lead, support, and grow a team of engineers building Metal and Metal compute framework features and conducting performance analysis on next generation GPU hardware, carrying features from emulation all the way through silicon and into the bring-up of new chips and products.

You will partner directly with leaders across Apple’s software and hardware organizations to propose, develop, and evaluate features for new silicon generations, representing Apple’s compute and ML roadmap while the hardware is still taking shape.

**Minimum Qualifications**

+ BS/MS/PhD in Computer Science, or a related field; or equivalent experience
