AI Engineer Intern

What You'll Be Responsible For:

• Owning the full lifecycle of your project — from scoping through to shipped, production-ready code

• Building and iterating on AI systems: LLM pipelines, agents, retrieval systems, evaluation frameworks, or prompt optimization (depending on the project)

• Writing production-quality, tested, well documented code for people and agents that goes through the team's standard review process

• Participating in daily standups, code reviews, and architecture discussions alongside the engineering team

• Driving SOTA AI practices and tool usage

• Helping the team level up on AI — whether that's demoing a new approach in standup, pairing with engineers on AI-powered features, or just being the person who's always experimenting

• Presenting your work to the team and leadership at the end of the program — what you built, what you learned, what comes next

About You:

You're already doing this on your own time. You've built agents, experimented with novel prompting approaches, or shipped AI tools as side projects. You don't need to be told to start building — you just do.

What Matters:

• You have repos, weekend builds, or side projects that show how you think about AI — send them

• You're a decent engineer: comfortable with Python/Javascript/Ruby, Git, testing, and shipping real software

• You're really good with AI: you've gone beyond tutorials into building things that actually work - and stay working a month later.

• You're a self-starter with a hacker profile — you figure things out without waiting for instructions

• You're curious and opinionated about where AI tooling is headed

• You communicate clearly — you can explain what you built and why

What matters less: specific degree, years of experience, or which framework you prefer.

How to Apply:

Send us three things:

1. A lightweight demo that shows us why you want to work at Great Question. Build something with AI — a repo, a deployed tool, a video walkthrough. It doesn't need to be polished. We want to see how you think, what you reach for, and whether you engaged with what we're building.

2. A short written answer: Why are you right for this role?

3. Your resume. For context, though, the demo is what we'll look at first.
