AI-native Software Developer Intern

AI-Native Software Developer Intern

Build real AI agents used daily across the company

We’re looking for a high-agency, AI-native software developer intern to help us build internal AI agents that improve productivity across our entire company (80–100 people using them daily).

You will ship real systems , used by real teams, with real impact.

If you’ve never built anything outside coursework, this role is probably not a fit.

What You’ll Work On

You will work directly on designing, building, deploying, and iterating AI agents that power internal workflows.

Examples of problems you may tackle

Internal AI agents for:

• Knowledge retrieval across Notion / docs / Slack
• Automated report generation
• Customer support assistance
• Process automation (ops, hiring, onboarding, etc.)
• Decision-support copilots
• Prompt engineering + structured outputs + tool-using agents

Building workflows using:

• LLM APIs
• Vector databases
• Agent frameworks
• Internal dashboards
• Improving reliability, latency, cost, and usability of AI systems
• Designing real UX around AI tools (not just scripts)

You will

own features end-to-end

• Problem understanding
• Solution design
• Implementation
• Testing
• Deployment
• Iteration based on user feedback

What We Expect From You

You must:

• Be AI-native : you actively use tools like:
• ChatGPT / Claude / Cursor / Copilot
• AI for debugging, scaffolding, refactoring
• Prompt iteration
• Rapid prototyping
• Be comfortable with at least one programming language (Python, TypeScript, JS, etc.)
• Have strong critical thinking
• You question requirements
• You think about edge cases
• You optimize systems, not just make them “work”
• Be high agency
• You don’t wait for step-by-step instructions
• You proactively propose solutions
• You take ownership of outcomes
• Be able to learn fast on the job

Help will be provided but you will not be spoonfed.

Absolute Requirement (Non-Negotiable)

If you have not built any side projects with a visible output, you will most likely be rejected.

We expect at least one of:

• A deployed web app
• A GitHub repo with meaningful commits
• A working AI tool
• A live demo link
• A product you built and shipped
• An agent, automation, bot, or workflow you created

Bonus Points (Strong Signals)

These are not required but will strongly differentiate you:

• Built projects using:
• LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.)
• LangChain / LlamaIndex / custom agent frameworks
• Vector DBs like Pinecone, Weaviate, FAISS
• RAG systems
• Experience deploying:
• Vercel, Fly.io, Render, AWS, etc.
• Built internal tools for a team before
• Strong product intuition (you care about UX, not just code)
• Experience automating your own workflows using scripts or AI

What You’ll Gain

You will get:

• Real experience building AI agents used daily
• Ownership over production systems
• Deep exposure to:
• AI architecture
• Product thinking
• Iterative engineering
• Tradeoffs (cost vs latency vs accuracy)
• A portfolio that actually means something in 2026
• A strong shot at long-term roles based on performance

If you perform well, you won’t leave with a certificate, you'll leave with real-world building experience.

Who This Is Perfect For

• People who already build things for fun
• People who automate their own life with scripts/tools
• People who learn by shipping
• People who prefer responsibility over structure
• People who are excited by ambiguity

Who This Is Not For

Be honest with yourself

• If you need step-by-step instructions
• If you avoid open-ended problems
• If you’ve never built anything outside assignments
• If you dislike using AI tools while coding

This will be frustrating for you.

How To Apply

Send:

• Your GitHub
• Links to projects (deployed preferred)
• A short note explaining:
• What you built
• Why you built it
• What you’d improve if you had more time

Strong portfolios beat strong resumes.
