AI Development Engineer Intern
Key Responsibilities
- Ship features on either side of the stack — gateway routing, MCP servers, agent workflows, knowledge base, or a user-facing AI feature.
- Build the evals that prove a prompt or retrieval change actually helped, before it reaches users.
- Prototype in days, then add the tests and logging that let it run unattended in production.
- Pull adoption, cost, and quality data, and report what you find — including when it contradicts the story.
- Talk to the people using what you build, internal or external; their complaints are the roadmap.
Requirements
Must have
- Built something real with LLM APIs: prompting, streaming, tool calling, failure handling.
- Git, tests, and debugging to root cause instead of guessing.
- SQL and enough data sense to spot an outlier skewing an average.
Nice to have
- Agent frameworks or MCP; daily use of coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor).
