About the Role

What You'll Do

You’ll take ownership of a meaningful machine learning project from start to finish, working closely with an engineering team to design, implement, and refine solutions that have real impact. You'll write clean, maintainable code, contribute to technical documentation, and iterate based on feedback in a fast-moving environment.

Throughout the internship, you’ll collaborate with engineers and stakeholders across teams, gaining insight into how machine learning integrates into product development. You'll also have the chance to shape your own experience—whether through technical exploration, peer learning, or organizing team events.

You’re able to take statistical or machine learning concepts and turn them into functional, scalable implementations. You’re eager to grow your technical abilities and are curious about how AI can be applied thoughtfully to improve workflows. You must be available for a full-time, 12-week commitment from early December 2026 to late February 2027.
