About the Internship

We are looking for motivated and curious individuals to join our AI Engineering Internship Program, a structured 6-week journey designed to take participants from Python fundamentals to building production-ready AI applications.

This program focuses on practical learning, combining core software engineering skills with modern AI technologies such as LLMs, APIs, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG).

What You’ll Learn & Build

Week 1 — Python Foundations for AI

You will build a strong programming foundation:

  • Python basics (variables, loops, functions)
  • Data structures (lists, dictionaries, JSON)
  • Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)
  • Data validation using Pydantic

Hands-on:

  • Coding challenges focused on clean code and problem-solving
  • Type-safe data parsing and validation

Mini-project:

  • Build a CLI data validator that processes and validates JSON input

Week 2 — APIs & Data Pipelines

Learn how real-world systems communicate and handle data:

  • REST APIs and FastAPI
  • Database fundamentals (SQL, ORMs)
  • Async programming basics

Hands-on:

  • Build a data pipeline: fetch → clean → store → display

Mini-project:

  • Develop a Data Aggregator (e.g., news or pricing dashboard)

Week 3 — Introduction to LLMs

Understand the foundations of modern AI:

  • How Large Language Models (LLMs) work
  • Prompt engineering basics
  • Embeddings and vector databases

Hands-on:

  • Experiment with prompts and LLM APIs
  • Build semantic search using vector stores

Mini-project:

  • Create a text summarizer or Q&A chatbot

Week 4 — Building LLM Applications

Move from experimentation to real products:

  • LangChain and LangGraph
  • Agent-based architectures (ReAct, tool-calling agents)
  • Memory and workflow orchestration

Hands-on:

  • Build multi-step AI workflows
  • Create stateful AI agents

Mini-project:

  • Develop an Agentic Assistant (e.g., travel, legal, or support assistant)

Week 5 — Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)

Master one of the most important real-world AI patterns:

  • RAG architecture
  • Document processing and chunking strategies
  • Retrieval and ranking techniques

Hands-on:

  • Build full ingestion and retrieval pipelines

Mini-project:

  • Create a “Chat with Your Documents” application

Week 6 — Final Project (Production Simulation)

Work in teams to build a real-world AI product.

Project options:

  • AI customer support agent
  • Internal knowledge assistant
  • Code assistant
  • AI concierge for real estate or hospitality

Requirements:

  • LLM integration
  • API usage
  • Basic web interface (Flask or FastAPI)
  • Logging and error handling

What We’re Looking For

  • Basic programming knowledge (any language)
  • Interest in AI, backend development, or data systems
  • Strong problem-solving mindset
  • Ability to work collaboratively in teams

What You’ll Gain

  • Hands-on experience with modern AI tools and frameworks
  • Real-world project portfolio
  • Mentorship and structured learning path
  • Exposure to production-level AI system design
