Summary

Thousands of people and businesses depend on a process that takes months. It should take days.

You build the proof: a system that moves a request from submitted to decided in five business days.

Laitram is seeking an AI Software Engineering Associate for a four-month, hands-on contract position. In this role, you will design, build, and deliver a working AI-powered software prototype from concept through implementation.

This is a hands-on software engineering project to spearhead a project from start to finish - not one small part of one. You will design, build, and ship a working AI-powered software prototype end-to-end. The specifics of the project will be scoped and assigned at the start of the contract.

Job Responsibilities and Requirements

Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, test, and deliver a functional AI-powered software prototype.
  • Build and integrate the application's back end, APIs, and user interface.
  • Integrate AI and large language model (LLM) capabilities into a practical application.
  • Translate a real-world business process or challenge into clear technical and product requirements.
  • Prioritize features and make practical design decisions to deliver an end-to-end solution within the internship period.
  • Collaborate with technical and non-technical stakeholders to gather feedback and refine the solution.
  • Document the application, key technical decisions, and recommendations for potential future development.
  • Communicate progress, challenges, and results clearly to project stakeholders.

Requirements

  • Demonstrated full-stack web development experience, including independently building a back end, an API, and a functional front end.
  • Hands-on experience integrating AI or LLM APIs into an application, including prompt design, structured outputs, and working with document or image inputs.
  • Ability to move quickly from concept to a functional solution and improve it through iteration and feedback.
  • Comfort working through ambiguity and breaking a complex, real-world problem into achievable milestones.
  • A bias for execution- prefers a rough thing working end-to-end over a perfect thing that only works in theory
  • Comfort with ambiguity and good product instincts - can take a messy real-world process and decide what to build first.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
  • Ability to work independently while actively seeking input and collaborating with others.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Interest in applying software and AI to improve processes and create efficiencies across business functions or industries.
  • Experience with computer vision, document processing, or document-understanding technologies.
  • Familiarity with workflow orchestration, state-machine patterns, or data visualization.
  • Experience training, evaluating, or fine-tuning a model using a real-world dataset.

What We Offer

  • A portfolio centerpiece. A working software product the intern can showcase.
  • Ownership of a meaningful project from initial concept through delivery.
  • Practical experience building a software solution that addresses a real business need.
  • Close collaboration with experienced technical and business leaders.
  • The opportunity to strengthen your portfolio with a working end-to-end software product, subject to Intralox confidentiality and intellectual property requirements.
  • A challenging, collaborative environment that values initiative, creativity, and continuous improvement.
  • Possibility for long term position. If this project is successful, the opportunity for permanent work will be strongly considered.
