This internship provides direct exposure to modern software engineering best practices, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) models, and automated software development life cycles.

Automation & AI Workflow Development

• Workflow Automation: Build and configure automated workflows using platforms like n8n, Make, Zapier, or Microsoft Power Automate to integrate software tools and data streams.
• Scripting & API Integration: Write Python or JavaScript scripts to interact with RESTful APIs, parse JSON data payloads, query SQL databases, and manage webhooks.
• Generative AI Prototyping: Assist in developing internal AI agents, prompt engineering pipelines, and RAG architectures to automate routine technical and operational tasks.

Testing, Documentation & SDLC Support

• Quality & Debugging: Perform functional testing, code debugging, and version control management using Git.
• Process Documentation: Maintain technical documentation, workflow diagrams, and deployment guides for all developed automation pipelines.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Participate in team stand-ups, technical code reviews, and remote/hybrid collaboration sessions to refine project requirements.

Academic Qualifications

• Currently Pursuing or Recently Graduated: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree (B.E. / B.Tech / M.Tech / M.C.A / M.Sc) in Computer Science, Information Technology, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, or a related engineering discipline.

Technical & Skill Requirements

• Programming Skills: Foundational programming knowledge in Python or JavaScript.
• Core Technical Concepts: Familiarity with REST APIs, JSON data handling, webhooks, relational databases (SQL), and spreadsheets.
• Software Fundamentals: Understanding of basic version control (Git), software debugging, testing methods, and technical documentation.
• Soft Skills: Strong problem-solving abilities, clear written/spoken English communication, self-direction in a remote/hybrid environment, and a strong curiosity for AI technology.

Preferred / Good-to-Have Skills

• Exposure to Generative AI tools, LLM frameworks, prompt engineering, or RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation).
• Hands-on experience with low-code workflow tools (n8n, Make, Zapier, Power Automate).
• Prior technical projects documented on GitHub or in a personal portfolio.
• Basic understanding of data privacy, access control, and secure coding fundamentals.

Estimated Internship Stipend Expectations

For an AI Automation Intern (ACE / Contract) at Altera / Intel India (Bengaluru):

• Estimated Monthly Stipend: ₹35,000 to ₹60,000 INR per month.
• Additional Benefits: Access to corporate learning portals, hardware allocation, corporate transport/allowances (if applicable), and potential conversion opportunities to full-time roles based on performance and budget.
