Job description

AI Automation Internย 

Founding AI Team Reporting Directly to Partnerย 

If you want to move fast, ship real things, and haveย outsizedย impactย atย a leading PE firmโ€”keep reading.ย 


ย 

Position Summary:ย 

K1 is seeking an AI Automation Intern to join our founding AI team in Manhattan Beach, CA.ย This is not a typical internship. You will be one of three founding members of K1's internal AI function,ย reporting directly to a Founding Partnerย with no middle management, noย busywork, and real ownership from day one. You will work at the intersection of artificial intelligence, enterprise software, and private equity operations โ€” 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 โ€“ Passion, Persistence, Humility, and Excellence.ย 

Key Responsibilities:ย 

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

  • Rapidly prototyping AI tools and agents โ€” from competitive intelligence scrapers to board-report generators โ€” and iterating quickly based on real userย feedback;ย 

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

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

  • Performing other duties as assigned.ย 

Requirements:ย 

  • Open to May 2026 graduates (including out-of-state candidates willing to relocate) and 2027โ€“2028 graduates based in the Los Angeles area.
  • Currentlyย pursuing a Bachelor's orย Master's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Business + CS, or a relatedย field;ย 
  • At least one prior internship or substantive project experience in AI/ML, software engineering, or dataย science;ย 

  • Proficiencyย with Claude (Anthropic) as a daily working tool โ€” prompt engineering, multi-step workflows, and integration into realย tasks;ย 

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

  • Proficiencyย in Python and/or JavaScript โ€” youย don'tย need to be a systems engineer, but you need to be able to ship workingย code;ย 
  • Bias toward action, comfort with ambiguity, and a genuine obsession with where AI isย headed;
  • Ability to work in-office in Manhattan Beach 2โ€“3 days per week.ย 
    ย 

Perks:ย 

  • Direct access to a Founding Partner โ€” no layers, no bureaucracyย 

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

  • Portfolio-wide exposure across 275+ enterprise software companiesย 

  • Flexible scheduling around your class scheduleย 

  • Competitive hourly compensationย 
    ย

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