What you’ll do

As an AI Engineering Intern, you will be at the forefront of applying generative AI to enhance Pindrop’s internal operations and engineering productivity. You will work closely with senior engineers to turn manual processes into intelligent, automated workflows.

  • Explore and build proof-of-concept AI agents to automate complex internal engineering workflows, such as incident analysis or code review summaries.  
  • Develop and optimize Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines to enable "chat with your data" capabilities for internal technical documentation and runbooks.  
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify operational bottlenecks and implement AI-driven fixes that improve efficiency and performance.  
  • Test and document the use of emerging AI-assisted coding and monitoring tools to determine their viability for the broader engineering organization.  
  • Participate in security-minded engineering, ensuring that automated workflows follow strict data hygiene and secrets management protocols.  

Who you are

  • You are deeply curious about how AI can make large-scale systems more efficient and are comfortable experimenting with new, unproven tools.
  • You are excited to uncover innovative solutions and can teach yourself new frameworks (like LangChain or Auto-GPT) when needed.
  • You take ownership of your projects, under-promise, and over-deliver.
  • You seek feedback frequently and can explain complex AI concepts to both technical and non-technical teammates. 

Your skill-set

Must-haves:

  • Pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, or a related technical field.  
  • Knowledge of Python for automation and data processing.  
  • Demonstrated interest or project experience in AI/ML, specifically involving Large Language Models (LLMs) and prompt engineering.  
  • Familiarity with Git workflows.

Nice-to-haves:

  • Hands-on experience building small ML pipelines or experimenting with vector databases and RAG frameworks.  
  • Foundational experience with AWS or GCP services (e.g., Lambda, S3, or SageMaker).  
  • Exposure to CI/CD concepts or infrastructure-as-code (e.g., GitHub Actions, Docker). 

What’s in it for you

In an era where synthetic media and identity manipulation are accelerating, you will work on the systems that ensure every interaction involves the real human and the right human. You will wake up every day knowing your work has real-world impact by protecting financial institutions and consumers from fraud.  

You will gain hands-on experience in a modern environment, working alongside some of the best technical minds in security, AI, and voice intelligence. This is a career-defining opportunity for someone ready to drive meaningful, enterprise-level AI impact.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 07/31/2029

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
