AI Data Research Intern

About Us

Climate X is a purpose-driven technology company, backed by GV (Google Ventures), Western Technologies (early investors in Meta, Google, Palantir), Commerz Ventures, Pale Blue Dot, Deloitte, and other world-class investors. We’re a wonderfully diverse, growing team with physical offices in London and New York City.

Demand for Climate X is growing fast, and we need to build our team! You’ll be at the front of a nascent industry, working as part of a fantastic and diverse team, doing things that you can be proud of. We’re excited to have the opportunity to speak with you during this process.

Our mission

To deepen the understanding of our changing planet and inspire meaningful action.

What we do

• We’re helping the world become more resilient to the impacts of physical climate risks (including floods, fires, storms and more). In doing so, we help drive positive global impact aligned to many of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s).
• Our team builds cutting-edge, peer-reviewed science (incorporating climate projections, remote sensing data) and translates that into financial impacts (to the value of assets or business disruption linked to failure of critical infrastructure) that our customers in the financial services industry use to identify, manage and mitigate those risks.
• Climate X’s customers include the world’s largest banks, asset managers and insurance companies including CBRE, Standard Chartered, Virgin Money and Federated Hermes, as well as a partnership ecosystem that includes Deloitte, Capgemini and AWS. Combined, they manage over $6.5 trillion of assets.
• Customer’s choose us thanks to our ecosystem of products that help solve real human problems, and drive tangible business benefits to our customers. They love our customer-centric mindset, as well as our pace of innovation in the market.

The Role

We’re looking for an AI Data Research Intern to help build the high-quality, structured datasets that power our AI and LLM products. You’ll play a key role in uncovering and curating data about companies and their physical assets, transforming raw information into usable insights that support climate risk modelling at scale.

You’ll need to be curious, inventive, and resourceful—capable of navigating public and proprietary data sources, and using modern tools (including ChatGPT) to accelerate research. If you're comfortable with financial or company data, love solving ambiguous problems, and have a keen eye for detail, we’d love to hear from you.

What You’ll Do

• Research and extract information about company assets (e.g. real estate, infrastructure) using public filings, company reports, third-party databases, and the web.
• Label and annotate data to create structured datasets for training AI models.
• Utilise tools like ChatGPT and basic web scraping techniques to extract relevant information efficiently.
• Use structured frameworks to label, organise, and validate this data to prepare it for AI model training.
• Work closely with our data scientists and product teams to understand evolving data needs and ensure labelling quality.
• Proactively identify gaps, inconsistencies, or opportunities to improve our datasets. Continuously refine data collection and labelling processes to improve accuracy and efficiency.

What We’re Looking For

• A self-starter who thrives in a fast-moving environment and enjoys finding creative solutions.
• Technically curious—able to learn tools quickly and explore ways to automate research (e.g. with ChatGPT, Python, scraping tools).
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to data accuracy.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.

Nice to Have

• Comfortable interpreting company and financial data (e.g. reports, statements, registries).
• Familiarity with Python and libraries such as BeautifulSoup or Selenium.
• Experience with data annotation tools and platforms.
• Background in finance, economics, or a related field.

Why Join Us

This is a unique opportunity to contribute to building climate-resilient intelligence at the intersection of science, technology, and AI. You’ll be part of a collaborative, values-driven team working on some of the most important challenges of our time.

We offer a flexible, supportive hybrid environment and a chance to grow your technical and analytical skills in a fast-growing climate tech company.

This is a 2 month internship with the possibility of extending.
