Software Development Engineer Intern

Don't just learn about how AI is changing software engineering. Get hands-on experience building the systems that are driving that change.

About Pactorize

Pactorize is an early-stage technology company building intelligent systems for the AI era, at the intersection of AI, software engineering, knowledge, learning, and evaluation.

We are a small, engineering-driven team where interns work on real products and challenging engineering problems, rather than isolated academic projects. This is an opportunity to work closely with experienced engineers and gain hands-on experience building production-oriented AI software.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a Software Development Engineer Intern who is curious about AI, enjoys building software, and wants to learn how modern intelligent applications are designed and engineered.

You will contribute to real product development across areas such as:

• Full-stack software development
• AI/LLM-powered applications
• Backend services, APIs, and databases
• Data and knowledge processing
• AI agents and intelligent workflows
• Evaluation and reliability of AI systems
• Cloud-based application development
• Testing, debugging, and improving production software

The exact projects and responsibilities will evolve as the company and products grow.

What We Look For

• Strong programming fundamentals and problem-solving ability
• Good understanding of data structures and algorithms
• Experience with at least one programming language such as Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, C++, or similar
• Familiarity with web development, APIs, databases, or software engineering projects
• Genuine interest in AI and emerging technologies
• Ability to learn independently and work in a fast-moving environment
• Strong ownership, curiosity, and attention to engineering quality
• Good communication and willingness to ask questions and learn

Prior experience with LLMs, AI applications, cloud platforms, Git, React, Node.js, Python, or PostgreSQL is a plus, but not required. You don't need to be an AI expert or have experience with every technology we use.

Internship Structure

Phase 1

Part-Time: 15–20 hours/week

Flexible scheduling designed to accommodate college classes, assignments, and examinations.

Phase 2

Full-Time: 40 hours/week

Transition to full-time engineering work, aligned with the candidate's final-semester/project requirements where applicable.

After the Internship

Potential conversion to Full-Time Employee

High-performing interns may be considered for a full-time position with Pactorize, subject to business requirements and mutual agreement.

Stipend

This is a paid internship. The stipend is ₹20,000 per month for full-time engagement (40 hours/week), and is adjusted proportionately for part-time engagement based on agreed working hours.

Why Join Pactorize?

• Work directly with a small, experienced engineering team
• Build real AI-powered products, not just prototypes or academic exercises
• Gain hands-on experience across modern software and AI technologies
• Take meaningful ownership early in your career
• Learn how products are designed and built in an early-stage technology company
• Opportunity for full-time conversion based on performance

If you enjoy building, learning quickly, and want to be part of the next generation of AI software, we'd love to hear from you.
