Applied Research Intern, Proactive Intelligence & Customer World Models (PhD / Graduate Co-op)

About the role

We're hiring a small cohort of graduate research interns to help build the foundations of proactive intelligence. This is not a traditional internship. You'll own a research problem end-to-end: framing the question, developing methods, running experiments, publishing findings, and, when successful, shipping your work into production systems used by millions of customers and sellers. You'll work at the intersection of representation learning, foundation models, reinforcement learning, causal reasoning, agentic systems, and product intelligence. The goal is not simply to build smarter models, but to build systems that develop a deeper understanding of customers and use that understanding to make better decisions over time. Past interns have shipped production systems within months and published their work in the same year.
