About the role
Why Auctor
Auctor is building the AI layer for professional-services and software-implementation work—the “brain” behind the best solution engineers, forward-deployed engineers, and onboarding teams. We automate the discovery, documentation, and decision-making that drives $400B+ in services every year. The category is massive and still wide-open.
Internship Overview
Join us in New York City for 10–12 weeks and help build the next generation of AI-powered workflow tools. You’ll pair with engineers on projects that ship to real customers—no toy tasks or shadow assignments.
What You’ll Do
-
Contribute features to our Next.js + Python stack, from API to UI
-
Prototype and benchmark LLM-powered agentic workflows
-
Build retrieval pipelines over large, messy enterprise datasets
-
Write clean, well-tested code and see it hit production the same week
-
Demo your work directly to customers and the leadership team
What We’re Looking For
-
Solid programming foundations (data structures, algorithms, networking basics)
-
Proficiency in Python and TypeScript (or a strong desire to learn)
-
Curiosity about LLMs, vector databases, and scalable infra
-
A bias for action—hack first, polish second, always deliver
-
Ability to work on-site in NYC at least 5 days/week (we’re in-person, fast, and collaborative)
Compensation
$55.00 per hour
