In Siri AI Quality Engineering, you will ensure Siri delivers the right experience in the right context—across all Apple devices, system configurations, and real-world conditions. As a Software Development Engineer in Test in Siri AI Quality Engineering, you will serve as a Feature Quality Directly Responsible Individual (DRI), shaping end-to-end quality strategy from early feature design stages through public release. In this role, you will architect comprehensive validation strategies that balance robust, deterministic test automation with novel agentic test harnesses designed to evaluate non-deterministic, contextual AI interactions.
