We’re looking for a curious, creative, and driven student to join us as an AI Transformation Engineer Intern. This is a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of artificial intelligence, innovation, and business transformation.

• Analyze traditional business processes to identify areas where AI could add value
• Assist in designing and prototyping AI-enhanced workflows using tools like large language models (LLMs), automation platforms, and internal APIs
• Support the development of proof-of-concepts that demonstrate AI’s ability to streamline or transform workflows
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Support, Services, Product, etc.) to test ideas and gather feedback
• Learn how to iterate quickly - experimenting, learning, and improving on prototypes
• Help document learnings and share insights with stakeholders across the business
• Participate in meetings with senior leaders to gain exposure to strategic decision-making
What you’ll also learn and experience:
• Hands-on experience with AI tools and platforms in a real-world business environment
• The process of rapid prototyping and experimentation in a high-impact setting
• How to turn bold ideas into practical solutions
• Mentorship and coaching from experienced engineers, product leaders, and innovation experts
• The culture of innovation - where failing forward and curiosity are celebrated
Skills and experience we value:
• Currently enrolled in a Bachelor’s or Master’s program in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field
• Strong interest in artificial intelligence, machine learning, or process automation
• A creative mindset - you enjoy building things and thinking outside the box
• Some experience with programming languages such as Python, React, C#, or SQL
• Eagerness to learn and contribute in a fast-paced, collaborative environment
• Excellent problem-solving skills and a strong sense of curiosity
• Strong communication skills - able to explain your ideas clearly to technical and non-technical audiences
