About EvolutionCo
EvolutionCo builds technology-led digital products and AI platforms for enterprise and institutional use. Our work spans AI-powered learning, content generation, analytics, integrations, identity and access management, APIs, and distributed systems.
The Forward Deployed Engineer Intern works close to customers and internal solution teams to turn real business requirements into working software. This is a builder-generalist role for someone comfortable moving across backend services, lightweight frontend work, integrations, data, scripting, and AI/LLM configuration to get a customer outcome working quickly.
Role Overview
Forward Deployed Engineers operate at the edge of the product: understanding the customer problem, prototyping a solution, integrating the platform into the customer environment, and iterating until it works reliably. The intern will support this loop hands-on and learn how enterprise AI products are adapted and deployed in real-world environments.
This role is intentionally broad and customer-facing. Communication, speed of learning, resourcefulness, and ownership matter as much as coding ability.
What You Will Work On
- Work with solutions engineers and customer teams to understand requirements, workflows, systems, and constraints.
- Rapidly prototype and build customer-specific solutions, integrations, workflows, and internal tools on top of EvolutionCo platforms.
- Write connectors, scripts, and glue code to integrate APIs, customer systems, identity providers, and data sources.
- Configure and tailor AI/LLM capabilities such as RAG, prompt flows, embeddings, and agentic workflows for customer use cases.
- Support data onboarding, including extraction, cleaning, transformation, mapping, and loading.
- Build demos and POCs that validate a concept quickly and can be shown directly to customers or internal stakeholders.
- Troubleshoot deployment and integration issues, identify root causes, and work with product/backend teams on fixes.
- Translate customer feedback into clear technical requirements, implementation notes, and product insights.
- Document the solution sufficiently so it can be supported, repeated, and handed over.
- Occasionally support on-site deployment or customer working sessions when an engagement requires it.
Technical Environment
- Languages: Python (primary), JavaScript / TypeScript, SQL, Bash.
- Backend / full-stack: FastAPI, Flask, Node.js, React, scripting and automation.
- APIs and integrations: REST, GraphQL, webhooks, OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SSO.
- AI / LLM: OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, RAG, embeddings, vector databases, agents, prompt engineering.
- Data: PostgreSQL, CSV / JSON, ETL and data wrangling.
- DevOps / cloud: Docker, Git/GitHub, CI/CD, basic AWS / Azure / GCP.
- Tools: Postman / Insomnia, notebooks, command-line tooling.
Required Skills
- Solid programming fundamentals in Python and/or JavaScript/TypeScript.
- Ability to build a small backend or full-stack feature end to end.
- Good understanding of REST APIs, HTTP, and basic SQL/database concepts.
- Hands-on exposure to at least one AI/LLM API or AI-powered project.
- Comfort with Git and reading or modifying unfamiliar code.
- Strong problem solving in ambiguous situations; able to investigate without step-by-step instructions.
- Clear written and verbal communication, including comfort speaking with non-engineers.
- High ownership, adaptability, curiosity, and a bias toward getting a working outcome shipped.
Good to Have
- Deployed side projects, hackathon builds, or a strong GitHub portfolio.
- Experience integrating third-party APIs, webhooks, or identity systems.
- Experience with RAG, agents, embeddings, vector databases, or data pipelines.
- Docker, cloud platforms, deployment, or CI/CD exposure.
- Any customer-facing, consulting, support, freelance, or implementation experience.
What We Are Looking For
A builder-generalist who enjoys ambiguity and can learn whatever technology the problem requires. The ideal candidate cares about customer outcomes more than framework purity, communicates clearly, and is comfortable moving from a conversation or rough requirement to a working prototype or integration.
Eligibility
- Pursuing or recently completed a degree/diploma in Computer Science, Information Technology, Data Science, Software Engineering, or a related field. Strong self-taught builders with demonstrable project work are also welcome.
- Academic projects, personal projects, GitHub repositories, hackathons, previous internships, or freelance work that demonstrate the ability to build and ship are highly valued.
Internship Development Framework
- Structured onboarding into the relevant EvolutionCo platforms, engineering practices, and active solution areas.
- Clear task allocation and an explicit learning roadmap aligned to the role.
- Active mentoring from the team lead / senior engineers.
- Ongoing performance tracking and evaluation against engineering quality, ownership, learning speed, communication, and delivery outcomes.
What You Will Gain
- Hands-on exposure to how enterprise AI products are deployed with real customers.
- Broad experience across backend, integration, AI, data, deployment, and customer solutioning.
- Structured onboarding, a defined learning roadmap, active mentoring, and periodic performance evaluation.
- Opportunity to build production-relevant work rather than isolated academic exercises.
- Potential PPO / full-time conversion for strong performers, subject to business need and role availability.
How to Apply
Please share: (1) resume/CV, (2) GitHub/portfolio/live project links, and (3) a short note on a project where you solved a real problem end to end and what you personally built.
Shortlisted candidates may be asked to complete a small practical build or debugging task, followed by a technical and problem-solving discussion.
Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
