About The Position

Coretek’s AI & Data Co-Op Program places interns on a team that uses AI and automation to build solutions for employees across the business. Co-ops work directly with the teams that will use each solution to understand their needs, optimize workflows and operational processes, and apply AI models, automation technologies, and other tools to solve business problems. Solutions are refined through hands-on testing, feedback, and iteration until they are stable, reliable, and able to operate independently.

The role provides hands-on experience across the Microsoft AI and automation ecosystem, including Azure AI, Copilot Studio, Power Automate, Power BI, Microsoft Teams, and Salesforce. Co-ops gain exposure to the full lifecycle of developing and deploying AI-powered business solutions in a consulting environment.

Requirements

• Currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, Business Administration (Technology & Operations), Information Systems, or a related field.
• Basic understanding of AI concepts and frameworks, such as large language models, Azure AI, and Copilot Studio.
• Comfortable working through ambiguity and developing solutions iteratively as requirements and constraints become clearer.
• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail, particularly when working with financial, sales, or client-facing data.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across teams with varying technical backgrounds.
• Self-motivated, with the ability to own a project from prototype through testing, documentation, and deployment.
• Ability to manage multiple tasks and adapt to shifting priorities in a dynamic environment.

Nice To Haves

• Exposure to automation platforms such as Power Automate, UiPath, or Automation Anywhere.
• Exposure to Microsoft Cloud technologies such as Azure or Copilot Studio.
• Exposure to programming languages such as Python, C#, or Java.
• Power usage of coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor.

Responsibilities

• Partner with business stakeholders across departments to identify processes suited to automation and scope solutions around their needs.
• Design, build, and refine automation and AI-agent solutions from initial prototypes to stable, deployable solutions.
• Apply AI techniques, including generative AI models, prompt design, and conversational agents, to automate and improve business processes.
• Test and validate solutions against real data and edge cases, addressing inaccuracies in AI output before deployment.
• Communicate technical work to non-technical stakeholders, including estimating and reporting time or effort saved.
• Document workflows, architecture, and design decisions so others can maintain, extend, or take over the solution.
• Collaborate with interns and team members to share ideas and troubleshoot challenges in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
• Research emerging AI and automation technologies and share relevant findings with the team.
