Llm Engineer Intern information

What is an LLM Engineer Intern?

LLM Engineer Interns are students or recent graduates who assist in the development, fine-tuning, and deployment of large language models (LLMs) such as GPT or BERT. They work under the supervision of experienced engineers and researchers, contributing to tasks like data preprocessing, model training, evaluation, and prompt engineering. These interns gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge AI technologies while helping teams build and improve natural language processing applications.

What do LLM Engineer Interns do?

As an LLM Engineer Intern, you can expect to contribute to tasks such as fine-tuning large language models, evaluating model performance, and assisting with data preprocessing and annotation. You may also help develop or improve prompt engineering strategies, conduct error analysis, and collaborate with senior engineers on integrating language models into real-world applications. Interns often participate in team meetings and code reviews, gaining practical experience and exposure to the latest advancements in natural language processing.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an LLM Engineer Intern?

To thrive as an LLM Engineer Intern, you need a solid background in computer science, machine learning fundamentals, and programming languages such as Python, often supported by coursework or relevant projects. Familiarity with deep learning frameworks (like PyTorch or TensorFlow), version control tools (such as Git), and exposure to model training or prompt engineering is typically expected. Strong analytical thinking, collaboration, and a willingness to learn help interns adapt quickly and contribute effectively to team projects. These skills and qualities are crucial for developing, refining, and deploying large language models in dynamic research or production environments.

Workato AI LabAbout Workato AI Lab

Workato AI Lab is at the forefront of enterprise AI innovation, developing cutting-edge agentic systems that transform how businesses automate and optimize their workflows. Our team bridges academic research with real-world applications, creating AI systems that serve millions of users across global enterprises.

Responsibilities

We are seeking exceptional graduate students to join our AI Lab as Research Interns in San Francisco. You'll work on fundamental problems in LLM-based agentic systems and efficient AI infrastructure, with opportunities to publish your research while making direct impact on production systems serving enterprise customers.
We are now filling intern positions for Winter 2026 and Spring 2027. 

Research Areas

  • LLM Agent Systems: Design and implement intelligent agent architectures for complex enterprise automation tasks, including multi-agent collaboration, MCP, and reasoning frameworks

  • Efficient LLM Fine-tuning: Develop novel methods for parameter-efficient adaptation, alignment, and reinforcement learning for large language models

  • High-Performance LLM Inference: Optimize inference pipelines through systems-level innovations, kernel development, and deployment strategies

In this role, you will also be responsible to:

  • Conduct original research on LLM agent architectures and optimization techniques

  • Develop and evaluate novel algorithms with both academic rigor and production feasibility

  • Present your work at internal research seminars and external conferences

  • Mentor and collaborate with LLM  engineers on implementation and deployment

RequirementsQualifications / Experience / Technical Skills

  • Currently pursuing MS/PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, or related fields

  • Publications at top-tier venues (ICML, NeurIPS, ICLR, ACL, EMNLP, NAACL)

  • Strong programming skills in Python and PyTorch

  • Ability to work in-person at our San Francisco office

  • Ability to work independently and collaborate across research and engineering teams

Preferred:

  • Experience with self-evolving agent systems

  • Proficiency in CUDA programming and custom kernel development for LLM operations

  • Background in reinforcement learning-based LLM fine-tuning 

  • Track record of contributions to production inference systems such as vLLM, TensorRT-LLM, SGLang, or Hugging Face ecosystem

  • Experience bridging academic research with production systems

  • Open-source contributions to widely-used ML infrastructure projects
