Software Engineer Intern (AI-Native) — Fall 2026

We’re looking for engineers who don’t just use AI tools — you build with them.

At Kognitos, you’ll work on real product problems using tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and other AI-assisted workflows. You’ll ship fast, learn faster, and operate in a highly iterative environment alongside experienced engineers.

This is not a “watch and learn” internship — you’ll be writing production code, contributing to core systems, and helping shape how we build.

- Build and ship features end-to-end with the engineering team

- Use AI-native tooling (Claude, Cursor, etc.) to accelerate development workflows

- Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code

- Participate in code reviews and technical discussions

- Debug issues and improve system performance

- Contribute to projects across AI, automation, and data systems

- Move quickly, test ideas, and iterate in a fast-paced environment

- Currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science or a related field (or equivalent experience)

- Strong fundamentals in programming (Python, JavaScript, or similar)

- Comfortable building with modern dev tools and workflows

- Familiar with Git and collaborative development

- Solid understanding of core CS concepts (data structures, algorithms, systems basics)

- Strong problem-solving ability and curiosity

- Clear communicator and team-oriented

- Experience using AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, etc.)

- Built projects using LLMs, APIs, or automation workflows

- Familiarity with modern web stacks (React, Node, etc.)
