Are you fascinated by the potential of artificial intelligence? Do you have a gift for language and a keen eye for detail? Nurix is offering select undergraduates the chance to own real projects in one of tech's most exciting new fields: prompt engineering.
What is Prompt Engineering?
Prompt engineering is the art and science of instructing AI systems to produce specific, high-quality outputs. As AI becomes increasingly integrated into business operations, the ability to craft effective prompts is becoming an invaluable skill—one that's still rare enough to set you apart in the job market.

Your Impact as an Intern
You will directly own and influence our AI systems' performance and user experience. Your prompts will shape how our AI agents interact with thousands of users.

This internship offers true ownership and accountability in a field that's defining the future of technology.
