Software Implementation Internship Jobs in Oregon

Job Details:Job Description: Our Mission

At Intel, our journey is to transform AI into something safer, more trustworthy, and respectful of human privacy by design. We believe transformative AI should have a positive impact on people-powerful in capability, yet honest about its limits and protective of the data and resources it touches.

To get there, we build agentic AI that combines the best of local and cloud intelligence - private, affordable, and sustainable by design. Small, efficient models run directly on the user's machine (AI PC, edge, on-prem, and beyond), keeping data private and token costs low, while powerful cloud models handle the hardest work: planning, reasoning, and complex problem-solving. Today, neither approach can deliver this alone. Together, they give people real capability without compromise-data stays private, spend stays predictable, and energy use stays in check.

We're building intelligence that scales without sacrificing trust, cost, or the planet-because the future of AI should belong to the people it serves

Role Summary

The model is only half an agent; the harness is the other half. You build everything around the model that makes it act - context management, tool and function calling, file and terminal execution, scheduling, memory, and the agent loop itself.

This is core product engineering on an agent framework comparable to well know AI models, but built to run hybrid (local + cloud) and with efficiency.

What you'll do:

• Design and build the agent loop: planning, tool invocation, observation handling, retries, termination
• Implement tool integrations - file I/O, terminal / shell execution, web, MCP servers, message apps
• Build context management: what goes in the window, when to summarize, how to use long / cross-session memory
• Implement scheduling and automatic / background task execution
• Keep the harness model-agnostic so local and cloud models are swappable behind one abstraction
• Design agent security mechanisms through different approaches
• Make the loop observable, debuggable: tracing, replay, and reproducible agent sessions

What you'll learn / grow into

Curiosity is required. You will develop:

• How frontier agent harnesses are architected - and how to do it efficiently.
• hybrid model routing and graceful degradation
• The hard parts: context-window economics, tool-call reliability, and multi-agent orchestration
• Interest in LLM agents and how they actually work under the hood

Qualifications:
