Job description

Pactorize is an early-stage technology company building the capability layer for the AI era — helping people and organizations turn knowledge into learning, action, and measurable capability.

We are a small, engineering-driven team where interns work on real products and challenging engineering problems, rather than isolated academic projects. This is an opportunity to work closely with experienced engineers and gain hands-on experience building production-oriented AI software.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a Software Development Engineer Intern who is curious about AI, enjoys building software, and wants to learn how modern intelligent applications are designed and engineered.

You will contribute to real product development across areas such as:

• AI/LLM-powered applications
• Backend services, APIs, and databases
• Data and knowledge processing
• AI agents and intelligent workflows
• Evaluation and reliability of AI systems
• Cloud-based application development
• Testing, debugging, and improving production software

The exact projects and responsibilities will evolve as the company and products grow.

What We Look For

• Strong programming fundamentals and problem-solving ability
• Good understanding of data structures and algorithms
• Familiarity with web development, APIs, databases, or software engineering projects
• Genuine interest in AI and emerging technologies
• Ability to learn independently and work in a fast-moving environment
• Strong ownership, curiosity, and attention to engineering quality
• Good communication and willingness to ask questions and learn

Prior experience with LLMs, AI applications, cloud platforms, Git, React, Node.js, Python, or PostgreSQL is a plus, but not required.

Internship Structure — Graduates

The internship is for 6 months. Candidates who have completed their studies are expected to work 40 hours per week throughout the internship.

Internship Structure — Current Students

Phase 1 — Part-Time: 15–20 hours/week

Flexible scheduling designed to accommodate college classes, assignments, and examinations.

Phase 2 — Full-Time: 40 hours/week

Transition to a full-time internship schedule, with reasonable consideration for the candidate's final-semester academic and project requirements, where applicable.

Stipend

A stipend will be provided throughout the internship and will be based on the applicable part-time or full-time engagement.

Opportunity for Full-Time Employment

The internship is designed to provide an opportunity to grow with Pactorize. Depending on business needs and available full-time positions, interns who demonstrate strong performance, ownership, and a good fit with the team would be considered for a full-time role upon completion of the internship.

Why Join Pactorize?

• Work directly with a small, experienced engineering team
• Build real AI-powered products, not just prototypes or academic exercises
• Gain hands-on experience across modern software and AI technologies
• Take meaningful ownership early in your career
• Learn how products are designed and built in an early-stage technology company
• Opportunity for full-time conversion based on performance

If you enjoy building, learning quickly, and want to be part of the next generation of AI software, we'd love to hear from you.
