Job summary

Binance is seeking a Backend Engineer Intern to work on the Agent Runtime and AI infrastructure, helping to route intents, orchestrate tools, and evaluate agent performance at scale.

You will collaborate with Backend, Data Science, and Algorithm engineers to prototype, benchmark, and mature AI capabilities into production with real impact for Binance users.

Qualifications

• Strong Python/Java programming skills and solid software engineering fundamentals.
• Hands-on experience with LLM applications or Agent systems; research, coursework, internships, or projects accepted.
• Familiarity with RAG, Tool Calling, Function Calling, Prompting, Agent workflows, or LLM evaluation.
• Able to work with real codebases, APIs, asynchronous services, testing, CI/CD, and code review.
• Strong debugging and analytical ability, with a mindset of understanding why it fails, not just making it work.

Responsibilities

• Build and improve core components of the Agent Runtime, including intent routing, query rewriting, RAG, tool/skill orchestration, and multi-step agent workflows.
• Design and optimize Tool Server / Tool Calling capabilities, including tool discovery, execution, result handling, and integration with web search, market data, and internal services.
• Develop evaluation datasets and evaluation harnesses to measure routing accuracy, answer quality, tool-use performance, and agent reliability.
• Investigate and improve Agent quality, including failure analysis, regression detection, prompt / workflow optimization, and guardrail effectiveness.
• Improve system observability and reliability through tracing, metrics, logging, dashboards, and production monitoring.
• Debug issues across asynchronous services and agent pipelines, and build integration tests using mocked LLM responses and replayable evaluation cases.
• Work closely with Backend, Data Science, and Algorithm engineers to experiment, benchmark, and bring AI capabilities into production.

Job description

Binance is a leading global blockchain ecosystem behind the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume and registered users. We are trusted by 300+ million people in 100+ countries for our industry-leading security, user fund transparency, trading engine speed, deep liquidity, and an unmatched portfolio of digital-asset products. Binance offerings range from trading and finance to education, research, payments, institutional services, and more. Our mission is to increase the freedom of money and financial access for people around the world.

About The Team

Binance AI Pro is building the next generation of AI-native experiences within Binance.

At the core of AI Pro is an agentic system that can understand user intent, reason through multi-step tasks, retrieve information, call tools, and safely execute actions across Binance's ecosystem.

As a Backend Engineer Intern, you'll work directly on the Agent Runtime and AI infrastructure behind these experiences — from intent routing and tool orchestration to evaluation, observability, and reliability.

We're looking for strong technical students who enjoy going deep — people who are excited by LLM Agents, systems, algorithms, and experimentation, and wants to work on real production AI systems alongside experienced Backend, Data Science, and Algorithm engineers. You will have the opportunity to turn ideas from prototype → benchmark → production, and see your work directly impact how AI Pro behaves at scale.

Responsibilities

• Build and improve core components of the Agent Runtime, including intent routing, query rewriting, RAG, tool/skill orchestration, and multi-step agent workflows.
• Design and optimize Tool Server / Tool Calling capabilities, including tool discovery, execution, result handling, and integration with web search, market data, and internal services.
• Develop evaluation datasets and evaluation harnesses to measure routing accuracy, answer quality, tool-use performance, and agent reliability.
• Investigate and improve Agent quality, including failure analysis, regression detection, prompt / workflow optimization, and guardrail effectiveness.
• Improve system observability and reliability through tracing, metrics, logging, dashboards, and production monitoring.
• Debug issues across asynchronous services and agent pipelines, and build integration tests using mocked LLM responses and replayable evaluation cases.
• Work closely with Backend, Data Science, and Algorithm engineers to experiment, benchmark, and bring AI capabilities into production.

Requirements

• Strong Python/Java programming skills and solid software engineering fundamentals.
• Strong understanding of algorithms, data structures, and problem solving; able to reason about system behavior and trade-offs.
• Hands-on experience with LLM applications or Agent systems, through research, coursework, internships, or projects.
• Familiarity with concepts such as RAG, Tool Calling, Function Calling, Prompting, Agent workflows, or LLM evaluation.
• Able to work comfortably with real codebases, APIs, asynchronous services, testing, CI/CD, and code review.
• Strong debugging and analytical ability, with a mindset of "understand why it fails, not just make it work."

Nice-to-have

• Experience with Agent frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain, AgentScope, LlamaIndex, or similar.
• Experience with MCP / Tool ecosystems / Agent Runtime.
• Experience building Benchmark / Evaluation / LLM testing infrastructure.
• Familiarity with vector search, embeddings, RAG evaluation, or LLM observability.
• Experience with Redis, Kafka, Docker, Kubernetes, or cloud-native systems.
• Exposure to LLM security, guardrails, prompt-injection defense, or tool-use safety.
• Experience with model inference, latency optimization, or cost optimization.

What You'll Get

• Ship real features to a production AI Agent used by Binance users.
• Work on the Agent Runtime and AI infrastructure, rather than only application-layer development.
• Learn from senior Backend, Data Science and Algorithm engineers.
• Gain hands-on experience across the modern LLM application stack: Agent Runtime, RAG, Tool Calling, Evaluation, LLMOps and AI Safety.
• Own meaningful engineering projects end-to-end, from problem definition → implementation → evaluation → production.

Why Binance

• Shape the future of finance
• Collaborate with world-class talent in a user-centric global organization with a flat structure
• Tackle challenging projects in a fast-paced and innovative enviornment with autonomy
• Thrive in a results-driven workplace with opportunities for career growth and continuous learning
• Competitive salary and company benefits
• Remote-first, work-from-home arrangement (may vary depending on the nature of the role and team)
