Job Description
AI Engineer, Internship – Intelligent Question Bank Platform
Accelint
• Work closely with the founder to design and build an AI-powered content generation system from the ground up • Contribute to meaningful parts of the product end-to-end from how the system ingests and understands source material, to how it produces and validates outputs, to how instructors interact with and review what the system generates • Build and iterate on LLM-driven pipelines • Work with retrieval and embedding techniques to ground outputs in real source material • Develop backend services and APIs that tie everything together • Think about output quality and building evaluation steps, catching failure modes, and improving the system based on real instructor feedback • Research new tools and techniques as the AI space evolves and bring relevant ideas directly into the product • This is a generalist role at an early-stage product where you'll wear multiple hats, work with ambiguity, and have direct input into how things are built.
Job Requirements
- Strong foundation in software engineering: data structures, APIs, system design
- Proficiency in Python (primary language for AI/ML pipeline work)
- Experience with REST APIs and at least one database (PostgreSQL preferred)
- Ability to work independently, ask sharp questions, and iterate fast
- Strong debugging and problem-solving instincts
- Demonstrated side projects or shipped code (GitHub portfolio required)
- Genuine interest in AI systems and education technology
- Direct experience with LLM APIs: OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, or Google Gemini
- Hands-on experience with RAG systems: embedding models, vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector, Chroma)
- Familiarity with prompt engineering techniques: few-shot prompting, chain-of-thought, structured JSON outputs
- Experience with NLP pipelines: text chunking, tokenization, semantic search
- Knowledge of LaTeX syntax and math rendering libraries (MathJax, KaTeX)
- Experience with image generation APIs or SVG programmatic generation
- Familiarity with AI evaluation frameworks or automated test harnesses for LLM outputs
- Cloud platform experience: AWS, GCP, or Vercel for deployment
- Experience with job queues: Celery, Bull, or similar
- Exposure to educational content standards or psychometrics is a bonus

• Architect the inference pipeline that turns Life360 into a context layer LLMs can reason over: soul files, family context, behavioral signals, document understanding. • Choose models. Choose hosting. Decide what is self-hosted, API-based, fine-tuned, or prompt-engineered. Revisit those decisions as the landscape changes. • Build the serving infrastructure. Latency budgets, batching, caching, fallbacks, graceful degradation. Make it run at scale before scale gets here. • Build the eval loop. Know whether changes make the product better or worse, not just whether the demo works. This is the difference between a real product and a magic trick. • Own the cost model. Track spend per user, per feature, per family. Find the levers (context compression, model routing, pre-computation) that keep unit economics working from a test group to millions. • Define what gets persisted, what gets summarized, and what gets thrown away. The architecture decision of "what does our data look like to an LLM" lives with you. • Set the bar for safety, privacy, and trust at the infrastructure layer. Sensitive categories filtered before they propagate. Encryption, access controls, audit trails built in, not bolted on.
