Engineering AI / Machine Learning Internship - Summer 2026
IDEMIA Public Security is a leading provider of secure and trusted biometric-based solutions. The Engineering AI / Machine Learning Internship involves prototyping, testing, and deploying intelligent systems, focusing on building AI features and tools while gaining hands-on exposure to large language models.
Responsibilities
- Build and iterate on small AI features and tools with guidance (Python)
- Help run and evaluate LLMs (open-source models) in controlled environments
- Contribute to simple APIs and scripts that connect models to real workflows
- Clean and organize datasets (PDF/XML/Markdown/JSON) for experiments
- Run experiments and record results; help debug issues and improve reliability
- Learn modern ML dev practices: versioning, containers, metrics, and basic evals
Skills
- Currently enrolled in a CS/Engineering (or similar) program
- Comfortable writing Python and using Git
- Basic ML fundamentals (e.g., linear models, neural nets) from courses or projects
- Curiosity, initiative, and willingness to learn unfamiliar tools
- A project (class or personal) that shows you like building things
- Intro experience with PyTorch or Transformers
- Familiarity with containers (Docker) or REST APIs (FastAPI/Flask)
- Interest in LLMs and infra (e.g., vLLM, batching, KV cache)
- Exposure to cloud or GPUs (Colab/AWS/local rigs)
- Prompt engineering, evaluation, or simple fine-tuning (e.g., LoRA)
- Messaging/storage basics (RabbitMQ, MinIO) or data pipelines
