AI Demand Gen Intern

Valency Systems Inc. • Berkeley, CA

1d • Onsite

About The Position

Valency Systems is a small, dynamic team of engineers, scientists, and researchers building the global hub for the agentic research era. We're based in Berkeley, California, and we're building something that matters. If you care about open science, advancing research at the speed of thought, and using AI to accelerate discovery, we'd love to talk. As an intern, you'll be fully in-office 5 days a week over the summer — a great way to immerse yourself in the team and get the most out of your experience.

Requirements

• Genuinely fluent in AI tools. You have built multi-step prompting workflows, used APIs directly, and can explain the difference between a good prompt and a bad one
• Data-literate and instinctively reach for data to evaluate whether something is working
• Can write clearly and credibly about technical topics. Academic audiences will not respond to generic marketing copy
• Comfortable running multiple experiments in parallel and killing the ones that do not work quickly
• Some exposure to marketing fundamentals (funnels, conversion, attribution) even if your background is primarily technical
• MBA or quantitative undergrad, Data Science, or CS — but major matters less than demonstrated AI fluency. If you have built something independently using AI tools (a side project, a research tool, an automation workflow) and can show it, we want to hear from you
• Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States.

Nice To Haves

• We want to see what you've built (GitHub repos, Side projects)

Responsibilities

• Build AI-assisted outreach sequences targeting researchers, lab administrators, and department leads at top research institutions
• Use Frontier AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini) to personalize outreach at scale without losing authenticity
• Run SEO experiments targeting the specific search queries researchers use when looking for tools like Valency Bond
• Set up basic pipeline tracking so we know which channels and messages are generating interest
• Experiment with programmatic content generation (blog posts, LinkedIn content, email newsletters) and measure what drives meaningful engagement vs. vanity metrics
• Work closely with other members of the GTM and technical teams to ensure outreach messaging reflects what we are learning about researcher pain points

Benefits

• Competitive hourly rate, commensurate with experience and track
• Learning sessions and cross-team exposure
• Interact with interesting academics and researchers from across many disciplines
