AI Product & Prototyping Intern
Help Build the Future of an AI-First Marketplace (150,000+ Monthly Visitors)
đ About The Builder Market
Weâre the first AI platform that connects homeowners with home services and construction professionals. With rapidly growing traffic (150,000+ monthly visitors) and exciting partnerships (like Pinterest!), we're looking for an enthusiastic individual to help us explore, prototype, and launch innovative AI features.
đĄ Your Mission (What Youâll Do & Learn):
This is a hands-on internship where you'll work directly with our founder and growth lead to:
- Explore & Experiment: Dive into the latest AI tech â LLMs, vector DBs, RAG workflows, agents, and voice interfaces. You'll research options, understand trade-offs, and help us identify promising paths.
- Build & Test Prototypes: Turn ideas into reality by building quick proof-of-concepts (Python/TypeScript/React preferred) for new AI-driven user flows (e.g., intelligent chatbots, smarter search, automated quote suggestions).
- Contribute to Product Vision: Learn the ropes of product management by assisting with feature definition, user story creation, and gathering user feedback to iterate on your prototypes.
- Collaborate Across Disciplines: Gain experience translating technical concepts for design discussions and vice-versa, fostering smooth development cycles.
- Stay Ahead of the Curve: Keep a pulse on the AI landscape (GitHub, ArXiv, Twitter) to bring fresh ideas to the table.
â This Is For You If YouâŠ
- Have hands-on development experience (Python, Node, or similar) and are excited to build AI demos.
- Are fascinated by product management and eager to learn about user stories, acceptance criteria, and experiment design.
- Think like an innovatorâcurious, data-informed, and keen to see ideas come to life.
- Follow AI developments for fun and are passionate about practical applications.
- Can showcase a personal project, hackathon entry, or open-source contribution that highlights your initiative and technical aptitude.
đ What Youâll Gain (The Opportunity):
- Real-World Impact: Develop AI features that will be used by a large and growing user base.
- Direct Mentorship: Learn directly from an experienced founder (ships fast!) and a $15M/yr sales lead (knows market fit!).
- Valuable Portfolio Pieces: Build tangible AI prototypes and contribute to features you can showcase.
- Flexible & Remote: We value results and offer a flexible schedule (async communication is welcome).
- Path to a Paid Role: This is an unpaid learning-focused internship for the summer months. This has potential to turn into an paid position.
