Apples Mixed Reality Headset team is continuing to Hire in preparation for a possible 2023 release, despite a downturn in economic conditions
Summary
Today in Mark Gurmans PowerOn newsletter he pointed to several recent job postings at Apple for their Technology Development Group (or TDG) that is working on their future mixed reality headsets operating system dubbed "realityOS." The company is searching for a software producer with experience in visual effects and game asset pipelines who can create digital content for augmented- and virtual-reality environments. This would follow the company’s 2020 acquisition of NextVR, which partnered with artists and professional sports leagues to transmit VR content to headsets. One job listing for the TDG department states: "We are looking for a software engineer who will work on the App Intents framework to help design and implement solutions to unlock deep system intelligence, enable new developer tools, and facilitate novel user interactions from application data models which are leveraged by a variety of system services such as Shortcuts, Siri, Search, and more,” The most interesting job listing is one that specifically calls out the development of a 3D mixed-reality world. The job posting noted: "You will work closely with Apple’s UI framework, human interface designers and system capabilities teams—pushing you to think outside-the-box, and solve incredibly challenging and interesting problems in the 3D application space."
