What You’ll Do
As an Intern, you will contribute directly to our core product and ecosystem:
- Develop and maintain SDKs and internal tools (TypeScript, Python, Rust).
- Enhance our React-based front-end application and user experience.
- Engage with the community via PR’ing Chunkr into other open-source dev tools.
- Build data pipelines for collecting, cleaning, and preparing document data to train CV & specialized small Vision Language Models (VLMs).
- Create technical documentation, usage guides/cookbooks, and blog posts to empower developers.
- Jump into wildfires - tasks like enterprise customer deployment support, or optimizing inference code. Expect curveballs; swing hard.
What We’re Looking For
- Demonstrated ability to ship software, showcased through a portfolio (GitHub, personal projects, deployed applications).
- Proficiency in TypeScript + React, and Python. Rust experience is a significant plus.
- Strong technical writing and communication skills (examples like blogs/sharing your work online highly valued).
- Familiarity with LLM/VLM APIs, chunking/embedding techniques, and RAG concepts.
- An interest in document intelligence challenges (e.g., layout analysis, table extraction, OCR).
- Self-starters comfortable in a fast-paced, small-team environment. Prior startup or OSS contribution experience is beneficial.
