About the role
Staff Experience Designer to own the end-to-end experience of Apple's AI Evaluation Platform. First designer on the team, defining design patterns and the design system for evaluating non-deterministic AI/agentic systems, partnering with researchers, engineers, and practitioners to surface evaluation techniques in a usable product.
Responsibilities
- Design the path from a vague question about a system’s quality or safety to a running evaluation, without requiring evaluation expertise.
- Make dense, multi-dimensional results legible enough to act on: scores, comparisons, distributions, and the uncertainty attached to them.
- Define how someone inspects multi-step agent behavior, traces a failure to its cause, and audits a judgment a model made.
- Partner with our research scientists as new evaluation techniques are being developed, so you shape how they surface in the product instead of designing around them after they're set. You'll translate these techniques into interfaces non-specialists can use and trust.
- Build and maintain the platform's design system as the first designer on the team.
- Prototype against real data to validate ideas before they're built.
- Run research directly with the engineers, scientists, and practitioners who use the platform.
Qualifications
- 8+ years of experience designing digital products or experiences, including end-to-end ownership of complex, data-dense products for technical users.
- A portfolio you can share, including at least one case study that walks through your process from problem framing to shipped outcome.
- Proven ability to design complex information: dashboards, comparison views, large result sets, and results that carry statistical uncertainty.
- Strong interaction and visual design skills, with a high bar for craft in dense, information-heavy interfaces.
- Enough fluency in AI/ML concepts (benchmarks, metrics, model-based judging, agentic systems) to work directly with a research scientist or engineer.
- Fluency with AI tools in your own practice. You use Claude Code or equivalents to build working prototypes.
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to build buy-in across engineering and research without formal authority.
