Description

We are looking for a hands-on AI Engineering Intern who has already built real projects and wants to work on practical AI systems deployed in engineering and infrastructure environments. This is not a research-only position. 

You will help develop AI tools that analyze pavement imagery, automate engineering workflows, build AI agents, retrieve knowledge from large document collections, and support next-generation digital products. Projects include computer vision, large language models (LLMs), retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), GIS integration, and edge AI deployment.  



Responsibilities
  • Build and improve AI agents using modern LLM frameworks 

  • Develop RAG systems that search engineering documents and project archives 

  • Train and evaluate computer vision models for pavement distress detection 

  • Process and analyze drone, GoPro, LiDAR, and roadway imagery 

  • Create image annotation, quality-control, and training pipelines 

  • Experiment with edge AI deployment on NVIDIA Jetson hardware 

  • Build internal applications using Python, Azure AI, Copilot Studio, and APIs 

  • Integrate AI outputs with GIS, dashboards, and engineering workflows 

  • Evaluate commercial AI tools and benchmark them against internal solutions 

  • Prototype ideas quickly and present findings to engineers and leadership 



Qualifications
  • Pursuing BS/MS in: 

    • Computer Science 

    • Artificial Intelligence 

    • Machine Learning 

    • Data Science 

    • Robotics 

    • Computer Engineering 

    • Related field 

    • Strong Python experience 

    • Experience with at least one: 

    • PyTorch 

    • TensorFlow 

    • Ultralytics YOLO 

    • Detectron2 

    • HuggingFace 

    • Experience using LLMs beyond prompting
