Why Your Work Matters

Generative AI is changing the world, but enterprise-grade AI is a whole different story. As a Gen AI Development Intern, you won't be fetching coffee—you'll be building Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines and Co-pilot assistants that may actually go into production. You will help define the ethics, safety, and efficiency of AI that thousands of people may use.

Responsibilities:

You'll sit at the intersection of Software Engineering and Business Strategy. Your goal is to take complex operational data and turn it into "thinking" systems.

• Develop and test Gen AI features, moving from proof-of-concept to real-world deployment
• Design RAG pipelines and conduct prompt engineering experiments to make LLMs smarter and more accurate
• Translate human needs into technical user stories. You are the bridge between a client's "I wish" and a developer's "I built."
• Evaluate AI outputs for accuracy, bias, and safety. You are the guardian of responsible AI
• Participate in code reviews, pair programming, and sprint planning like a full-time engineer
  
  
  

Requirements

• You're currently enrolled in an Undergrad or Grad program in Computer Science or relevant field (graduating in 2026 or 2027)
• You speak Java or JavaScript and have a solid grasp of LLMs, Co-pilot concepts, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
• You're proficient with Git/ GitHub and common developer tools
• You enjoy creating and building. (We'd love to see your GitHub or a project portfolio!)
• You can explain a complex "why" to a non-technical audience
• Exposure to cloud platforms like AWS/Azure/GCP is preferred
  
  

Details:

• Start Date: June 8th, 2026 (10-week summer intensive)
• Commitment: 40 hours/week
• Hybrid Life: Minimum 3 days onsite (experience the culture in person!)
• Comp: $25 per hour
