Intern - AI application builder

The Position

This is a pre-seed stage AI Fintech startup. We are looking for an intern to help build a RAG Application and LLM Connectivity.

At Factorise you get the chance to go beyond talking, studying, reading and theorizing about AI – you get to build AI applications. This is your chance to prove what you can do with AI, programming and mathematics. You will no longer be a passive recipient merely consuming influencers relentless AI gossip. You will be involved in coding, choosing the right components, providers, architecture and engineering the application. You will be part of a team and company having an actual impact on the world. The AI technology you build will make a difference for the user.  

You get the advantage to get in early in an AI startup. This means opportunity for you – if you are excellent at the job.

The Team

The team will support you with resources, learning and experience. There will be room for you to develop and grow.

The team have distinct results, experience and achievements in AI, Cloud, Learning and Software Development. This includes US Big Tech engineering positions, learning, knowledge production and communication, education, user centricity and visionary leadership. Leading technology teams, 10x growth and scaling companies, international AI application building as well as funding stages. This involves initial seed funding phase, multiple funding rounds and successful multimillion Series B funding.

About you

You can be a student, more experienced and in between projects, and/or wanting in on an exciting opportunity, while you are working your regular job.  

It’s crucial that you can code excellent in Python (and other languages) and you have the mindset of a software builder and engineer, always solving problems. It’s cool if you are from the Kolding/Vejle/Aarhus area but we can otherwise still do the work hybrid or remote. You can be self-taught, from a theoretical computer science or more trade operational type computer education – it does not matter. We look at what you can build. Mastery. You need to take pride in and commit 100% to this aim. We don’t care about your age, gender, status, network, or appearance etc. What matters is your contributions to creating the tech.

We will give you a great use case, recommendations, growth possibilities and learning trajectory. The job is unpaid and without equity for now, but when we get funded, you will have a chance to apply and negotiate for a paid position. You will need to sign an NDA.  

We make the contract for 3-6 months with a 14-day trial period. Hours a week will depend upon individual agreement, but there will be a lower limit, for you to be able to deliver the results needed.
