About the Role
This internship is part of Tech Seeds 2026 — our program to identify and develop AI-native young talent. As an Applied AI Agent Engineer intern, you will take on a hands-on builder role at the intersection of LLMs and production systems, working alongside full-time engineers on agent workflows, tool integrations, backend services, and AI system architecture from day one.
This is not a shadowing role. You will own deliverables, run experiments, and ship code that matters.
What You'll Do
- Support the design and development of AI agent workflows and LLM-powered application components
- Build and test prompt strategies, retrieval flows, tool-use logic, orchestration patterns, and backend integrations
- Assist in defining evaluation metrics, running benchmarks, and analyzing failure cases
- Improve system performance across quality, latency, reliability, safety, and cost
- Use AI coding tools as a normal part of your workflow to accelerate development and problem-solving
- Collaborate with engineers and cross-functional teams to understand how production AI systems are designed, deployed, and improved
- Contribute to backend services, APIs, internal tools, or lightweight user interfaces when needed
What We're Looking For
- Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, or a related field
- Expected graduation in 2026 or 2027
- Solid programming skills in Python or Java; familiarity with backend engineering is preferred
- Good problem-solving ability and comfort working with APIs, debugging, and data
- Strong curiosity about LLMs, AI agents, automation, and real-world system design
- Ability to break down ambiguous problems and move from idea to working prototype
- Comfortable learning quickly and working in a fast-moving environment
- Available for a 6-month full-time commitment
- Personal projects or coursework involving LLM applications, agent systems, automation, or AI-assisted development
- Familiarity with OpenAI APIs, Anthropic APIs, Hugging Face, LangChain, vector databases, or workflow tools
- Experience with Git, databases, backend services, or cloud platforms
