Overview : At Cognitive Space, we are at the forefront of AI innovation, developing intelligent systems that address complex challenges. This summer, we offer an exciting internship opportunity for an aspiring AI innovator to join our team in Houston, Texas. You will work on developing Large Language Model (LLM)-based agents capable of sophisticated tool interaction and reasoning. This role involves pioneering technology for satellite mission planning and orchestration, as well as creating intelligent solutions to streamline internal business operations. This internship is a chance to contribute to impactful projects and gain valuable experience in AI. 

What You'll Do : As an AI Agent Development Summer Intern, you will be immersed in a challenging and rewarding environment, contributing to the full lifecycle of AI solutions. Your primary responsibilities will include: 

Application in Satellite Mission Planning & Orchestration : 

• Design and prototype solutions for optimizing complex satellite mission planning, scheduling, and orchestration tasks. 
• Develop AI-driven technologies to address challenges in space operations, such as real-time mission planning, constellation optimization, and orchestration. 

Application in Business Operations Streamlining : 

• Leverage LLM agents to analyze, automate, and streamline intricate internal business processes. 
• Develop agent-based solutions for tasks such as blog post writing, knowledge base interaction, workflow automation, and data analysis. 

Research, Integration, and Collaboration : 

• Focus on enabling agents to proficiently use external tools through techniques such as function calling and API integration. 
• Investigate and implement multi-agent frameworks. 
• Collaborate extensively with multidisciplinary teams comprising AI researchers, software engineers, and domain experts in aerospace and business operations. 
• Actively participate in the entire project lifecycle – from conceptualization, requirements gathering, and design, through to coding (primarily in Python), rigorous testing, iterative refinement, and documentation. 
• Clearly document your research, development process, and experimental results, and prepare compelling presentations to share your findings and project outcomes. 

What You'll Learn & Gain : This internship is designed to be a significant catalyst for your career in AI, offering a rich blend of technical depth, domain exposure, and professional development: 

• Deep Technical Prowess : Gain extensive, hands-on experience in designing, building, and deploying LLM-powered agents using leading-edge frameworks and advanced techniques.
