Internship Remote Invoice Processing Jobs in Seattle, WA

Are you interested in expanding the core search and query engine autoscaling capabilities of a highly scalable open source log analytics and search platform. Do you like collaborating and working on a decentralized open-source model, but also have ownership on real deployments of that project. Do you have experience working directly with Lucene and understand how features like Lucene codecs, facets, similarity functions, k-NN, and queries work.

Do you get the differences between dense and sparse vector search. Do your peers consider you a mentor and do you enjoy scaling yourself by helping others learn?
OpenSearch is a community-driven, Apache 2.0-licensed open source search and analytics suite built on Apache Lucene that makes it easy to ingest, search, visualize, and analyze data.
