AI Engineer Intern

Tanagram is revolutionizing developer productivity by building AI-powered tools that capture and utilize knowledge from codebases, code reviews, incidents, and team communications. As an AI Engineer Intern at Tanagram, you'll be at the forefront of applying cutting-edge AI research to practical applications. The role involves working primarily with Python in a backend-focused environment, with some Swift for performance-critical operations.

The position offers a unique opportunity to work directly with users, build and evaluate AI agent systems, and contribute to core infrastructure development. You'll be handling everything from data ingestion services to deploying sophisticated reasoning models like Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct. The team values meticulous work and high agency, expecting interns to contribute meaningfully to both technical implementation and strategic decisions.

Working from their Mission Bay office in San Francisco, you'll join a small team of generalists who work across multiple domains. The company offers competitive compensation ($2,000-$2,500 per week), comprehensive benefits including health insurance, and various stipends for equipment and meals. What sets this opportunity apart is the chance to work in a stable environment with clear direction, while helping to shape the foundation of a company that's building the future of developer tools.

The ideal candidate should have practical experience with LLMs, demonstrate strong problem-solving abilities, and possess excellent communication skills. Additional experience with compilers, type systems, or search technologies is valued but not required. This role is perfect for someone who wants to bridge the gap between AI research and practical applications while working on tools that could fundamentally change how developers work.
