Role
Who you are
- If you’re passionate about systems, algorithmics, and performance — this is a unique opportunity to learn, contribute, and grow in a fast-paced AI startup environment
- Final-year student, or 4th-year from a top engineering school, ideally with a strong background in mathematics, algorithmics, and software engineering
- Strong coding skills, particularly in Python, React, and/or Linux environments
- Solid understanding of performance modeling, systems concepts, or interest in low-level metrics (e.g., latency, throughput, memory usage)
- Analytical mindset, with the ability to reason mathematically and think in terms of performance tradeoffs
- Autonomous and proactive, with a passion for building robust and meaningful tools
What the job involves
- FlexAI is seeking a brilliant and motivated Software Engineering Intern to join our team in Paris
- In this hybrid role, you’ll explore performance modeling beyond LLMs, build advanced system benchmarks, and contribute to the development of our frontend tools
- You’ll work alongside experts at the intersection of AI infrastructure, performance engineering, and user-facing analytics
- Model System Performance: Work on mathematical and algorithmic models to characterize and predict performance across various AI workloads (beyond LLMs)
- Develop Benchmarking Tools: Design and implement benchmarking pipelines to evaluate models, workloads, and infrastructure components
- Contribute to Frontend Development: Build user-facing components using React, delivering intuitive dashboards and benchmark visualization tools
- Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with both backend and infrastructure engineers to ensure modeling and benchmarking results are actionable and integrated into product workflows
- The opportunity to learn from top experts in AI and cloud computing, gaining hands-on experience and mentorship in a high-performing team
Application process
- We usually respond within a day
Our take
With a vision to contribute to the AI revolution, FlexAI delivers a layer of software intelligence, abstraction and orchestration into the AI compute stack. By rearchitecting existing architecture, it is creating accessible, universal AI compute to support the future of machine intelligence.
The idea is to combat the existing challenges with running AI workloads across diverse hardware. By doing this, FlexAI will enable AI developers to leverage a broader range of computing power without needing to modify their code.
FlexAI only came out of stealth in 2024, so we've yet to see much of what it has to offer, but its proposition has attracted a hefty seed investment. This will support the company as it moves forwards with the launch of its first product and towards its ultimate goal to empower AI acceleration.
