About the role

We file this job under ML Engineer, by the work the posting describes.

ML engineers put machine learning models into products. They write the code that trains, ships, serves and monitors models so a recommendation or prediction works for real users.

Postings ask for strong Python and software engineering, a framework such as PyTorch, cloud services, and more and more often experience with large language models.

A data scientist often works out which model to build; an ML engineer makes it run reliably in production.

About Internships at Gritt
Our internships are scoped projects: you own a defined deliverable end-to-end, work with a dedicated mentor, and demo your work to the whole team. Many interns receive return or full-time offers. This will be an internship for one of two durations: 3 months, or 6 months.

We offer competitive salaries, and the opportunity to work on a mission with tremendous climate impact.


What you'll get to work on

  • Build and operate training, data, or evaluation infrastructure used daily by the wider SW team.

  • Instrument, monitor, and harden the pipeline you ship.

  • Test your work on real robots at the office.

  • Opportunity to publish (for PhD interns).

  • Attend Tier-1 industry conferences.

An example project could be anything from an auto-curation pipeline that mines fleet logs for rare events (gusts, occlusions, near-misses) to feed training, to a regression harness that replays field scenarios against each new model release.


What we look for

  • Pursuing BS/MS/PhD in CS or related field.

  • Strong Python; familiarity with cloud services (AWS/GCP), containers, and CI/CD.

  • Evidence of building infrastructure or data systems.

  • Should be comfortable taking ownership of tasks with light supervision.

  • Must have excellent problem-solving skills.

  • Legally authorized to do an internship in the United States for either 3 months or 6 months.
