AI Platform Engineering Intern (Hybrid)

Responsibilities

• Develop an understanding of our business, corporate culture and structure to support your work.
• Contribute creative ideas and strategic approaches in response to changing situations.
• Work with your mentor and a partner team to understand a real business problem, and help turn it into a working AI solution by breaking it into small, clear tasks.
• Build and deploy an AI agent on our platform: give it tools, manage its context, and handle the unglamorous parts like retries, timeouts, and unexpected model output.
• Contribute to a shared platform capability, such as evaluation, observability, or internal developer tooling, alongside the engineers who own it.
• Follow team standards for code quality, testing, code review, and security, and write tests for the code you ship.
• Help measure how well an existing AI solution works, for example by turning real failures into test cases, and share what you find with the team.
• Take part in stand-ups, planning, and code reviews, ask questions early, and keep your mentor up to date on progress and blockers.
• Add logging, metrics, and tracing so others can see what your agent did, what it cost, and whether it is still healthy.
• Document what you built and hand it off so another engineer can pick it up, and present your work to the team at the midpoint and end of the internship.
