• We are looking for a high-performing Software Engineering Intern to help us move beyond simple chat interfaces into the world of Autonomous AI Agents. You won't just be "prompt engineering"; you will be building the systems, tool-integration layers, and reasoning loops that allow AI to execute complex, multi-step workflows.
• Collaborate and innovate with Product, Design and other engineering teams to deliver a seamless, consistent and engaging user experience for millions of users
• Design and develop front-end interfaces, RESTful APIs and backend systems

• Design and implement agent architectures using frameworks such as LangGraph or CrewAI.
• Build robust "tools" (APIs and functions) that the agent can call to interact with the real world (e.g., database querying, web searching, or file manipulation).
• Develop evaluation frameworks to measure agent performance, minimize "hallucinations" in reasoning, and ensure deterministic outcomes in a non-deterministic environment.
• Write clean, maintainable, and scalable code that integrates seamlessly with our core backend services.
• Strong understanding of Data Structures, Algorithms, and RESTful API design.
• Experience with advanced prompting techniques (Chain-of-Thought, ReAct, and Few-shot prompting).
