Job description

About Lindy

Lindy is an AI-powered personal assistant that helps people run their lives - from managing schedules and communications to auditing priorities and remembering what matters. We’re building the next generation of AI agents that function as genuine coworkers, and we’re doing it fast, as a small and ambitious team.

Our engineering team is flexible by design - engineers work on whatever is highest priority, moving fluidly across the product. Because of our growth and pace of new product development, the scope you can take on here is exceptional. This isn’t a “shadow someone for four months” internship. You’ll ship real features, work directly with the founders, and have genuine ownership over your work from day one.

What You’ll Work On

Lindy engineers are solving some of the most compelling problems in AI today - and as a co‑op, you’ll be in the middle of it. You’ll work on the AI assistant that helps people actually run their lives: managing communications, scheduling, priorities, and the hundred small things that eat up a person’s day.

Depending on priority, you might work on:

• Building and improving core AI assistant features that users interact with daily
• Expanding integrations across our library of 5,000+ third‑party APIs so Lindy can connect to more of a user’s world
• Contributing to our dynamic LLM routing system and self‑healing agent mechanisms that make the assistant reliable at scale
• Working on real‑time capabilities like audio and telephony that power Lindy’s voice features
• Shipping across the full stack using TypeScript, GraphQL + Relay, and deploying on Kubernetes in GCP

The tech is modern, the problems are hard, and the surface area is wide. You’ll figure out quickly what you’re great at - and we’ll give you room to go deep on it.

What We’re Looking For

• Currently enrolled in a Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related program (Work Term 5 or 6 preferred)
• Hands‑on experience with modern web development (JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, or similar)
• Some exposure to AI/ML tools, APIs, or agent frameworks is a strong plus
• You’ve built something - a side project, a hackathon entry, something you’re proud of
• You're passionate about AI and what it can do for people
• You’ve played on a team - sports, robotics, anything that required showing up consistently and pushing through when it got hard
• You’re the kind of person who thinks “I know someone who needs this” the moment they see a useful product

Compensation and Benefits

• $65 USD/hour
• $1,500 USD housing stipend
• Round‑trip travel covered
• J-1 Visa sponsorship available for Canadian students (we handle the process and costs)
• Direct mentorship from the founding team
• Real ownership - your work ships
