Our Mission
Rebuild how the world works, to make institutions work better for the people they serve.
About Brain Co.
Brain Co. builds AI-native operating systems for large, regulated institutions. Each system is built for a specific industry, powered by agents that push real workflows forward. Underneath it all is Atlas, our proprietary platform that keeps customers in control, secure by design, and never locked into one model.
Why Now
Brain Co. is entering its next phase of production deployments on a national scale with an elite team built from Palantir, Google, Meta, and Nvidia, and a growing footprint across government, insurance, health, and financial services.
Joining now means shaping both the company and a new category of applied AI. Every project here ships to production and is expected to create measurable customer value and impact.
You'll work alongside exceptional peers on some of the hardest problems in applied AI. It’s the kind of work you'll still be proud of in ten years from now.
About the Co-Op:
As anAI/ML Engineer Co-op Intern, you’ll work alongside experienced engineers and researchers to help design, build, and deploy machine learning systems that solve high-impact problems inhealthcare, government, and energy.
This internship is designed forcurrent undergraduate students (juniors and seniors) who want hands-on experience applying modern AI techniques—especially large language models—to real-world challenges. You’ll gain exposure to the full ML lifecycle while receiving mentorship and ownership over meaningful projects.
What You’ll Do
Assist in designing and deployingLLM-powered applications to automate complex, real-world workflows
Build and improvedata pipelines and support model training, evaluation, and optimization
Work with structured and unstructured data (e.g., text, documents, logs)
Help prepare models and systems forproduction deployment and monitoring
Collaborate closely with senior engineers, AI researchers, and product teams
Learn best practices throughcode reviews, design discussions, and hands-on mentorship
Gain exposure to customer-facing and real-world constraints, including working with public-sector institutions
You Might Be a Good Fit If You
Are acurrent undergraduate student, specificallya junior or senior, pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Data Science, or a related field
Have experience programming inPython
Have coursework or project experience inmachine learning or AI
Have exposure to or interest inlarge language models and GenAI applications (e.g., agents, RAG, reasoning workflows)
Have used or are eager to learn frameworks such asPyTorch, JAX, or TensorFlow
Have strong fundamentals indata structures and algorithms
Are curious, proactive, and excited to learn quickly in a fast-paced environmentEnjoy owning problems end-to-end with guidance and support
