Role Overview

upGrad is building AI-native learning experiences for millions of working professionals globally. As an AI Engineering Intern, you will work directly on LLM-powered products — from prototyping intelligent solutions to improving overall learning experiences. This is a hands-on, builder role for someone who learns fast, ships faster, and is genuinely curious about what AI can do for education.

Job Description

AI/LLM development

• Build and experiment with LLM-powered features — including RAG pipelines, AI agents, and prompt engineering workflows — for upGrad’s learning and content products.
• Develop and test prototypes for personalisation, content generation, and learner engagement use cases.
• Assist in evaluating model outputs for quality, relevance, and safety in an education context.

Collaboration & Integration

• Work closely with product managers, learning scientists, and senior engineers to translate learner problems into AI solution briefs.
• Integrate AI modules into existing product workflows using APIs and internal tooling.
• Document experiments, findings, and implementation decisions for cross-functional teams.

Research & Iteration

• Stay current with developments in LLMs, agentic frameworks, and AI in education; propose experiments worth running.
• Debug, test, and iterate model performance based on user feedback and product metrics.

Skills required

• Strong Python programming skills — you write clean, readable code, not just working code.
• Hands-on familiarity with LLMs, LangChain, RAG pipelines, or AI agents — through projects, coursework, or personal experimentation.
• Basic understanding of model evaluation and deployment concepts.
• Ability to work independently, ask the right questions, and communicate clearly with non-technical stakeholders.
• A builder’s mindset — you default to “let me try something” before “let me wait for a spec”.
