About Our Summer Internship Program

Our Summer Internship Program is designed for students entering their final year of university who are eager to gain meaningful, real-world experience in a fast paced, collaborative, and professional environment.

As a Summer Intern, you'll participate in a comprehensive onboarding experience led by our University Relations team to set you up for success from day one. Throughout the program, you'll also have the opportunity to participate in weekly professional development sessions, networking events, social activities, and other engaging experienced designed to support your personal and professional growth.

The program takes place from May – August 2027.

Your Role

As AI Engineering Intern for our Competitive Intelligence team, you will help the Competitive Intelligence team members design, develop, test, fine-tune, and manage AI chatbots, agents, and apps that help make the team’s processes more automated, scalable, and intelligent. 

These AI tools will help the team: 

Scale and accelerate market and competitive research

Accelerate competitive data analysis

Analyze and distribute competitive news with the appropriate stakeholders

Predict competitors’ next strategic moves

Automate the creation and upkeep of competitive Sales resources

Challenge our competitive resources to strengthen them before sharing them with users

Deliver contextual competitive insight to Sales teams at the right time and in the right format

Further automate the Competitive Intelligence helpdesk responses 

This internship is not observational. As our AI Engineering Intern, you will design, build, and ship working AI-powered tools that will benefit 3,500+ Sales Representatives, support global Marketing campaigns, help refine key product roadmap decisions, keep our leadership informed of strategic market motions, and more. We will keep using your deliverables after the internship completion. You will also help us fine-tune existing AI tools.

By the end of your internship, you will have: 

Delivered at least 1 functioning resource creation agent 

Delivered 1 functioning resource challenging agent

Increased the Sales support AI agent’s response accuracy over 95%

Helped implement our Competitive Intelligence helpdesk v2

Designed the AI-powered technical comparison table builder v2

Delivered 1-2 other functioning projects that we defined together

Documented how to maintain the deliverables you delivered 

In this role, you will work with our Competitive Intelligence team members, as well as key Competitive Intelligence stakeholders who use our competitive AI tools and competitive resources (Sales Representatives, Product Managers, Product Marketers, …).

Qualifications 

Practical experience with Anthropic Claude Chat bots, Cowork projects, Code projects, and Design projects — not just coursework but actual hands-on Claude experience 

Working knowledge of agentic/tool use patterns (function calling, RAG, basic orchestration) — doesn't need to be an expert, but shouldn't be learning what an agent is on day one

Exposure to evaluating LLM output quality — building a test set, scoring responses, and determining whether a prompt change helped

Exposure to version control basics, so work is recoverable and reviewable

Python proficiency; comfortable with API integration, data parsing, and basic pipeline construction

SQL exposure; able to read and modify a trivial transformation query

Ability to work with ambiguous, evolving requirements and iterate quickly on a 10-week clock — this is not a spec-handed-to-you internship

Comfortable interviewing subject-matter experts (analysts) to reverse-engineer a workflow before automating it

Rising Junior or Senior pursuing a Bachelor’s degree or a graduate student in an accredited college or university in AI engineering, Computer Science, Data Science, Information Systems, or related field

Excellent written, verbal and communication skills  

Willingness to learn about technology  

Proficiency in Windows and Microsoft Office.

Ability to work independently with limited direction in a fast-paced environment; must be a high-energy, motivated self-starter

Understanding and operating within the team's competitive intelligence ethics policy (code of ethics to be shared during interviews) 

Benefits

As a paid intern at Veeam, you’ll receive:

Paid Company Holidays during your internship

Tech Stipend to help set up your workspace

8 Hours of Paid Volunteer Time through our Veeam Cares Program
