Intern Enterprise AI Team

Job description

WHO WE ARE Proxima Fusion is Europe’s fastest-growing fusion company and the continent’s best-funded fusion player, as well as the first spin-out from the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP). Backed by over €650M and powered by a growing team across Munich, Zurich, and Oxford, we are developing the hardware and infrastructure needed to deliver the world’s first commercial stellarator fusion power plant. Our concept advances the most mature fusion technology out there, the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator, through two next-generation machines: Alpha and Stellaris. Our work combines stellarator optimization, advanced computation, machine learning, and high-temperature superconducting magnets to unlock higher-performance designs that were previously out of reach. Turning these designs into a functioning fusion power plant requires excellence and ownership across every discipline, from physics and engineering to software, manufacturing, law, and business functions. WHY JOIN PROXIMA FUSION You will get to work on some of the most complex tech challenges to bring abundant, safe, clean energy to the world. You'll get to join and learn from an exceptional selection of accomplished and driven individuals. Do your life’s best work and enjoy the journey. Get to show that big things are possible in Europe when you assemble the best talent. YOUR IMPACT You will join Proxima’s Enterprise AI team and be embedded into one of our workstreams. Your home is the AI team – that’s where you get technical mentorship, work on Proxima’s AI stack, and grow alongside other AI builders. Your day-to-day is inside the host workstream – that’s where you find the real problems worth solving and ship the solutions that change how the team operates.Your prototypes will go into production. Your work will directly accelerate cross-functional AI adoption across the company. WHAT YOU WILL DO Use Case Discovery: Shadow your host workstream, learn how the team actually works, and identify the high-leverage opportunities where AI can replace, accelerate, or augment real workflows. Prototyping & Shipping: Build lightweight AI solutions – agents, MCP-connected tools, focused LLM workflows, and automations – in Python, with technical guidance from the Enterprise AI team. Integration: Plug your tools into Proxima’s AI stack (Claude, Cowork, Cursor, our internal Information Hubs and MCP endpoints)…
