⭐ Mission: Be our AI "Marco Polo" We are looking for an explorer to map uncharted territory.
As our AI Enablement & Optimization Intern, you will be the "geek on the ground" who bridges the gap between cutting-edge AI tools and our Tech teams.

🏅 About You
- The "Maker" Mindset: You have launched side projects, built tools for your student association, or automated your own life just for fun. You love "tinkering."
- Tech-Curious & Self-Taught: You understand code, APIs, and are obsessed with the low-code/AI ecosystem. Whether you learned through engineering school, a bootcamp, or teaching yourself—you can prototype and ship solutions.
- Socially Smart: You are comfortable walking up to people you don't know, speaking English fluently, and convincing them to try something new.
- Currently pursuing: A 6-month internship
