We are hiring one AI Impact Fellow for Summer 2026.

Role Overview

This 10–12 week internship focuses on applied AI research and prototyping. The Fellow will identify high-leverage opportunities where AI can improve recruitment, fundraising, and internal operations.

You will:

• Audit workflows for AI application opportunities
• Build and test small-scale prototypes
• Evaluate emerging AI tools
• Deliver structured recommendations with cost/benefit analysis
• Present findings to leadership

This is a hands-on, independent role — not a shadowing internship.

Focus Areas

Recruitment & Marketing

• AI-assisted lead qualification
• Chat-based pre-qualification tools
• Funnel friction analysis

Development & Fundraising

• Prospect research automation
• Grant drafting support systems
• Donor segmentation analysis

Internal Operations

• Process automation
• AI-assisted data analysis workflows

You will prioritize 1–3 high-impact opportunities and produce working prototypes or documented frameworks.

Qualifications

Preferred:

• Rising senior or recent graduate in CS, Data Science, AI, or related field
• Hands-on experience with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.)
• Experience building applied AI projects or prototypes
• Familiarity with embeddings, vector search, or orchestration frameworks
• Strong problem-solving and communication skills

You should be comfortable operating independently and explaining technical ideas to non-technical stakeholders.

Program Details

• 10–12 weeks (June–August, flexible start)
• Remote
• $1,000 stipend
• Weekly 1:1 mentorship
• Final capstone presentation

One seat. One summer. Meaningful organizational impact.

To apply, please send your resume and cover letter to jobs@codeplatoon.org. In your cover letter, include a link to a project you’ve built using AI tools along with a brief explanation of how you built it. This can be either a short video (one minute or less) or a written description of no more than 400 words. We’re most interested in understanding your approach, decision-making, and how you leveraged AI in the process.

Candidates must be eligible to work in the U.S. without employer sponsorship.
