AI Application Engineering Intern
Build AI that solves real problems—not classroom assignments. Join us as an Applied AI Intern. ⭐
Ready to build something that matters?
At Katalon, interns don't sit on the sidelines—they build, create, analyze, and solve real business problems alongside experienced professionals.
If you're curious, love learning, aren't afraid to ask questions, and want to see how a global SaaS company really works, we'd love to meet you.
About the project:
This project strengthens the retrieval (RAG) and memory layers underpinning Katalon's AI agents. Current agent quality gaps — hallucination, inaccurate grounding, and lost context across sessions — trace to immature retrieval and memory infrastructure. The objective is to measurably improve agent response quality and context retention, without pulling core engineers off committed roadmap items — at a fraction of one FTE's cost, while also building a hiring pipeline for the AI platform team.
🚀 What you'll do
Build an agent quality evaluation pipeline: an automated benchmark measuring response accuracy, grounding, and hallucination rate
Run retrieval tuning experiments, improving chunking, embedding, and ranking strategies validated against the benchmark
Build a working GraphRAG/memory prototype for cross-session memory persistence
Document experiments and findings so the core team can adopt them directly
💡 We're looking for someone who
Solid Python and software engineering fundamentals (final-year student or fresh graduate level)
Familiarity with LLMs, prompt engineering, and loop engineering; hands-on exposure to RAG concepts is a strong plus
Basic data engineering skills — building pipelines, working with structured and unstructured data (e.g. JSON)
Experience with LangChain/LlamaIndex, graph databases, or evaluation frameworks (e.g. Ragas, DeepEval) is a strong plus
Self-directed learner, comfortable with ambiguity, with an experimentation mindset — always willing to try a new retrieval or memory approach rather than sticking to the first one that works
Good written English for documentation, since findings need to be picked up by the core engineering team, including honest reporting of benchmark results, regressions included
Genuinely into how AI agents actually work, not just running pre-built tutorials
Currently pursuing or recently completed a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, or a related field (final-year student or fresh graduate)
