You will work closely with developers and the project lead, gaining hands-on exposure to how AI/LLM features are built and validated in an enterprise pharma environment. Typical responsibilities include:

• Support manual and exploratory testing of new features (e.g., the AI chat panel, agent responses) and document results/bugs in Azure DevOps
• Support to build and deploy Agentic AI workflows that are integrated with the global CRM ecosystem
• Help prepare, clean, and organize content/data used to populate and validate the vector database for AI agent content
• Help optimize the agents to ensure the outcomes will generate business value for the CRM end users
• Assist with writing and maintaining test cases, user documentation, and internal how-to guides
• Implement solutions in an agile development team, tracking and updating tickets (status, notes, screenshots) in Azure DevOps
• Support basic research tasks (e.g., comparing tool options, summarizing documentation)

Who we are looking for:

• Currently enrolled in a degree program (e.g., Computer Science, Information Systems, Business Informatics, or related field)
• Practical Python programming skills, with a basic understanding of object-oriented programming principles, common design patterns, and modern development practices
• Basic knowledge of large language models and agentic AI frameworks or SDKs (e.g., OpenAI or Anthropic Python libraries, LangChain, Langraph), gained through coursework, personal projects, or internships
• Strong attention to detail and willingness to document work clearly
• Comfortable learning new tools quickly (e.g., Azure DevOps)
• Reliable, organized, and able to work independently on well-defined tasks
• Very good written and verbal communication skills in English
• Nice to have: Basic understanding of cloud architectures; initial exposure to AWS services such as AWS Glue, Athena, Step Functions, or Lambda is an advantage
• Nice to have: Prior exposure to Veeva Vault, CRM, or pharma/life sciences data
