AI-First Engineering Intern
You'll dive straight into building rather than shadowing. Working alongside senior engineers, you'll help identify where AI tooling and integrations can remove friction across Xsolla and then build the fix yourself. You'll build applications and integrations on top of Xsolla's APIs and SDKs that demonstrate to internal teams how to move faster with AI-assisted development. Everything you build is expected to reach real users, whether that's an internal tool adopted by an engineering team or a customer-facing integration, not a throwaway exercise. You'll use agentic coding tools like Claude Code or Cursor as your default way of working, and you'll share what you build in weekly lightning-talk demos with your global cohort of fellow interns. You'll work with minimal process: you'll get context, a problem, and a mentor, and the rest is on you to figure out and build.
Responsibilities
- Partner and collaborate with senior engineers to identify where AI tooling and integrations can remove friction, and build the fix
- Build applications and integrations on top of Xsolla's APIs and SDKs that show internal teams how to move faster using AI-assisted development
- Ship work that reaches real users, whether an internal tool or a customer-facing integration
- Use agentic coding tools such as Claude Code or Cursor as your default way of working
- Share what you build in weekly lightning-talk demos
- Work with minimal process, taking context and a problem and figuring out the build
- Learn from and collaborate with senior engineers and fellow interns across markets
Requirements
- Genuine passion for building, with side projects, hackathon entries, open-source contributions, or self-directed work
- Real AI fluency using tools like Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar agentic coding tools to build something
- Ability to explain how AI was used to build something and how it was confirmed to work
- Bias toward action, starting to build before asking for a spec
- Comfort developing modern full-stack solutions
- Current undergraduate student, graduate student, or recent graduate of a Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related program
