Location: Ahmedabad, India — Hybrid (local candidates only for now)
Duration: 6 Months
Type: Paid Internship, with day-to-day ownership of a 2-person intern team
About the Role
We're looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer to build AI-powered applications, automation workflows, and technology prototypes for real-world business problems — and to lead and guide 2 interns as they work on the same stack.
Responsibilities
- Build AI-powered applications, agents, and automation workflows.
- Develop POCs and MVPs using modern AI and cloud technologies.
- Integrate LLMs, APIs, databases, and third-party tools.
- Lead, mentor, and review the work of 2 interns — assign tasks, unblock issues, and keep their output on track and production-quality.
- Convert business requirements into working technical solutions and translate them into clear tasks for the intern team.
- Troubleshoot, test, and improve solutions across the team's combined output.
- Document projects and lead technical demos, including presenting the team's work.
Required Skills
- Python or another programming language, with enough depth to review and guide others' code.
- Solid knowledge of APIs, Git/GitHub, and databases/SQL.
- Prior project experience (academic, internship, or freelance) building something end-to-end — this is not a first internship.
- Some prior experience guiding, tutoring, or working closely with junior peers is a plus.
- Strong problem-solving skills and comfort working with ambiguity.
Good to Have
- OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, LangChain, or RAG experience.
- React/Next.js, FastAPI/Flask.
- AWS/Azure/GCP or Docker.
- n8n, Make, or Zapier.
Who Can Apply
B.Tech/B.E./MCA/M.Tech graduates with at least one prior hands-on project or internship — this role isn't for a first-time intern with zero project experience, given the mentoring responsibility involved.
