• Support experimentation with emerging AI technologies and the rapid development of proofs of concept (PoCs).
• Collaborate with AI Engineers, Data Scientists and business stakeholders to identify opportunities where AI can create measurable business value.

What you will learn:

• Generative AI, LLMs, RAG architectures and AI agent development.
• Enterprise AI engineering practices and modern AI platforms.
• Responsible AI principles, security and governance requirements.
• How AI solutions are designed, built and deployed in a large global organization.

What You’ll Bring:

• Fluency in English. Knowledge of one of the following languages is also an advantage: French, Dutch, German, or Spanish.
• A proactive attitude and strong communication skills.
• Attention to detail and a passion for delivering high-quality service.
• Interest in AI or/and Machine Learning.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.

Why Join Us?

This is a 9-month program, designated to take place during 2027 (expected between Feb–Nov) and will adapt to the company’s ways of working at that point in time.
The program allows flexibility for interns to choose between full-time and part-time schemes.
You’ll receive personal mentoring and support, as well as access to multiple networking opportunities.

What Happens Next?
Due to the high volume of applications, the selection process may take longer than usual. Candidates who meet the requirements will be invited for Excel test and interview with members of our team.
