Description

This Position NOTE: This position is for students in the UC Berkeley MET program only. As our conversational robots reach tens of thousands of Americans each month, our goal is to deliver a best-in-class experience. As a Software Engineer Intern (Summer 2026), you will help us achieve that goal. You will design and build features that delight businesses and their customers. Your work will be highly visible and seen by millions of people a year. Responsibilities * Design and develop new software and AI features for our conversational robot platform * Extend a multimodal, multi-agent architecture with novel functionality * Improve on-device model inference performance and efficiency * Implement infrastructure and platform improvements that strengthen reliability * Build and maintain internal infrastructure needed to monitor system health at scale * Work directly with customers to identify feature opportunities and stability improvements * Contribute to architecture and implementation decisions across product and infrastructure Required Qualifications * You are a fast learner * You have a documented history of execution, working autonomously, and taking ownership of the end result * Undergrad degree in CS or a related STEM field with a minimum 3.5 GPA * Advanced understanding of at least one language beyond syntax and surface-level usage * Intermediate understanding of "how technology works" — from physics to ALUs to OS design to network architecture. This role requires interfacing with other engineers. * Equally comfortable with both AI IDEs and writing compilable solutions to DS/algo problems with a pencil and paper * Documented, major project or work experience (excluding coursework) involving software architecture decisions * Comfortable with AWS or other production cloud environments * Strong design sense (UX/UI) * Fluent in English and comfortable with technical writing Optional Qualifications * Familiarity with at least one CI/CD tool and best practices (ex. GHA) * Prior experience with IaC (ex. CDK, Terraform) * Experience with training and deploying ML models in production settings * Proficient with frameworks like PyTorch and TensorFlow * Interest in photography, videography, graphic design, or any other field in the arts

Responsibilities

The intern will design and develop new software and AI features for a conversational robot platform, extending its multimodal, multi-agent architecture.
