Job description

AI Automation Intern 

Founding AI Team Reporting Directly to Partner 

If you want to move fast, ship real things, and have outsized impact at a leading PE firm—keep reading. 


 

Position Summary: 

K1 is seeking an AI Automation Intern to join our founding AI team in Manhattan Beach, CA. This is not a typical internship. You will be one of three founding members of K1's internal AI function, reporting directly to a Founding Partner with no middle management, no busywork, and real ownership from day one. You will work at the intersection of artificial intelligence, enterprise software, and private equity operations — shipping real automations, building real tools, and driving real impact across a portfolio of 275+ companies. Top performers will convert to full-time roles with a mandate to build and lead their own team. The right candidate will embody the values of K1 – Passion, Persistence, Humility, and Excellence. 

Key Responsibilities: 

  • Designing, building, and deploying AI-powered automations using Claude, Microsoft 365 (Power Automate, Copilot, SharePoint), and custom integrations to eliminate manual processes across the firm and portfolio companies; 

  • Rapidly prototyping AI tools and agents — from competitive intelligence scrapers to board-report generators — and iterating quickly based on real user feedback; 

  • Evaluating emerging AI models, tools, and frameworks and synthesizing findings into actionable recommendations for the investment team; 

  • Building internal dashboards, data pipelines, and agentic workflows that give K1's investment professionals an unfair advantage; 

  • Performing other duties as assigned. 

Requirements: 

  • Open to May 2026 graduates (including out-of-state candidates willing to relocate) and 2027–2028 graduates based in the Los Angeles area.
  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Business + CS, or a related field; 

  • At least one prior internship or substantive project experience in AI/ML, software engineering, or data science; 

  • Proficiency with Claude (Anthropic) as a daily working tool — prompt engineering, multi-step workflows, and integration into real tasks; 

  • Working knowledge of Microsoft 365 (Excel, PowerPoint, SharePoint, Teams); familiarity with Power Automate or Copilot Studio is a plus; 

  • Proficiency in Python and/or JavaScript — you don't need to be a systems engineer, but you need to be able to ship working code; 
  • Bias toward action, comfort with ambiguity, and a genuine obsession with where AI is headed;

  • Ability to work in-office in Manhattan Beach 2–3 days per week. 
     

Perks: 

  • Direct access to a Founding Partner — no layers, no bureaucracy 

  • Full-time conversion opportunity with an accelerated path to building your own team 

  • Portfolio-wide exposure across 275+ enterprise software companies 

  • Flexible scheduling around your class schedule 

  • Competitive hourly compensation 
     

About K1: 

K1 Investment Management is one of the largest investors in small-cap AI-powered software.
