AIntern

Career tracks

21 tracks. One company. The jobs as they are now.

Every track is a role at Meridian Retail Co.: a job title, a manager, and eight briefs across four weeks built on the company's own numbers. Memos, worksheets, decks, and things you make with AI tools and hand in as a link or a PDF, reviewed one at a time. We are honest about what the AI has taken from each role, because the briefs test the part that is left: the judgement. Finish one track, and a second track earns a second certificate.

Pick a track and start

For students

Pick the desk you want to sit at.

The first brief of every track takes about twenty minutes. If you are torn between two, the 2-hour sprint lets you try one brief from either before you choose.

AI Quality Analyst Intern

AI Evaluation & Quality

Decide whether a model's output is good enough to ship: write the rubric, sample the failures nobody reported, catch the average that hides a group being failed, and say no to a launch.

The role in 2026

The person who decides whether a model's output is good enough to put in front of a customer.

Gone to the AI: Reading every output by hand. Sampling is cheap now; deciding what counts as good enough is not.

  • Write down what good means, so two reviewers score the same
  • Sample the failures nobody reported, not the traffic
  • Say no to a launch that is better on average and worse for a group

Defensive security on a real target: triage the alerts that matter, judge what the AI scanner claimed, price the risk honestly, and write the notification that goes to the people whose data it was.
