AI Engineer Intern

Vahan’s interview process typically starts with a timed online aptitude and coding test, followed by a technical interview that dives deep into LLM concepts, prompt engineering, and system design. The final HR round assesses cultural fit and motivation. Candidates should be comfortable with Python coding, basic AI theory, and be ready to discuss past projects. Practicing prompt‑engineering questions and real‑world dataset handling helps.

Vahan promotes a high‑energy, impact‑first culture where engineers are trusted to ship features quickly. Employees enjoy flat hierarchies, frequent interaction with senior leadership, and ample opportunities for learning and growth. Work‑life balance is respected, with flexible timings and a focus on results over hours.

Open to final‑year B.Tech/M.Tech/B.Sc students (or recent graduates) in Computer Science, Information Technology, Electronics, or related streams. Minimum 60% aggregate (or CGPA 6.0/10). No active backlogs at the time of joining. Batch years 2024‑2026 are preferred.

Round 1: Online aptitude & coding test → Round 2: Technical interview (LLM concepts, system design, coding) → Round 3: HR interview (culture fit, motivation)

Vahan is a fast‑growing technology platform that is building the backbone for India’s massive blue‑collar workforce of over 300 million people. The company’s mission is to give workers reliable access to jobs, income‑stability tools, and financial services through a seamless digital experience.

The culture is highly mission‑driven, collaborative, and encourages rapid experimentation – employees get to see the real‑world impact of their work on millions of users. The AI Engineer Intern role is designed for candidates who want to move beyond classroom learning and own end‑to‑end product features. You will work directly with senior engineers and founders to design, prototype, and ship AI‑first solutions that power Vahan’s core matching and automation engines. The internship is a hands‑on experience where you will be expected to turn ambiguous problems into concrete, production‑ready systems. Key responsibilities: 1. Build and ship AI‑first features using large language models for matching, ranking, and conversational flows. 2. Design and implement automation pipelines for recruitment, onboarding, and operational workflows. 3. Work with large, messy real‑world datasets; clean, preprocess, and engineer features for scalability. 4. Experiment with prompt engineering, fine‑tuning, evaluation frameworks, and agent‑based workflows. 5. Develop APIs, scripts, and prototypes quickly to validate ideas. 6. Collaborate with product, operations, and business teams to translate user problems into technical solutions. 7. Take concepts from ideation through prototype to production deployment. 8. Document system design, performance metrics, and lessons learned for knowledge sharing. 9. Contribute to code reviews and maintain high code quality standards. 10. Stay updated with the latest advancements in GenAI, LangChain, vector databases, and Retrieval‑Augmented Generation (RAG) techniques. Tech stack: Python, JavaScript/Node.js, LangChain, OpenAI/Gemini APIs, vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, Weaviate), Docker, Git, cloud platforms (AWS/GCP). Growth path: High performers may receive a full‑time offer as a Machine Learning Engineer or Product Engineer, with mentorship from senior leadership and exposure to product strategy. Why join Vahan: You will work on problems that affect millions, enjoy high ownership from day one, receive direct mentorship from founders, and be part of a mission‑centric team that values speed, impact, and continuous learning.
