Key highlights
- Role involves working on AI systems for a mobile app with real‑time performance constraints.
- Must be currently pursuing a Masters degree in CS/AI/ML/Data Science (with a Bachelor’s in CS).
- Requires experience shipping at least one production‑grade mobile app.
- Requires strong proficiency in React Native, Expo, and the iOS ecosystem.
- Requires availability for full‑time (or near full‑time) internship during 7:30 pm IST to 4:30 am IST (or flexible overlap with US teams).
- Involves direct influence on product decisions and potential broader ownership across product quality and system design.
Role overview
This is not a passive role. You will work directly on the AI systems powering a product heading to market – one where the AI operates within the tight constraints of a mobile phone environment, dealing with limited screen context, predicting user inputs, and real-time performance demands. Your work will influence real product decisions and ship to users, and for the right candidate, this role can expand into broader ownership across product quality and system design.
Responsibilities
- Design and improve prompts for classification and extraction tasks
- Run structured evaluation cycles (accuracy, error analysis, iteration)
- Build datasets for testing and validation
- Analyze outputs from real usage (logs, SQLite data, structured results)
- Write Python scripts for testing, scoring, and comparisons
- Identify failure patterns and propose improvements
- Validate system behavior in iOS simulation environments
- Document findings in a clear and structured manner
Requirements
- We care most about problem-solving ability and a bias toward action — credentials matter less than evidence you can think clearly and ship things.
- Currently pursuing a Masters degree in CS, AI/ML, Data Science, or related field with a Bachelor’s degree in CS
- Experience shipping at least one production-grade mobile app
- Strong proficiency in React Native, Expo, and iOS ecosystem
- Python proficiency for scripting and data validation
- Experience working with APIs and local databases (SQLite or similar)
- Strong problem-solving and debugging skills
- Experience or formal training with LLMs and prompt engineering
- Clear and proactive communication
- Availability for full-time (or near full-time) internship
- Strong oral and written communication skills
- Ability to analyze results and iterate systematically
- Work Timing - 7:30pm IST to 4:30 am IST
- Or may be flexible with a half day overlap with US teams - 3pm to 12am IST shift maybe
