2027 Product Design Office (PDO) – AI Design Internship

Stellantis • Auburn Hills, MI

9d • Onsite

About The Position

This internship will follow an in-person model. Interns will be based at the Stellantis Headquarters and Technology Center in Auburn Hills, Michigan. The Stellantis Internship Program offers a unique opportunity for highly motivated, innovative, and inspired individuals to work on challenging assignments where contribution, teamwork and communication are vital to the success of the organization. As a leading-edge company, we provide real world challenges and rewarding intern experiences to candidates from a variety of colleges and universities while providing a competitive salary. Interns will be assigned to a department based on the candidate’s background and skill set. The assignments are project-oriented, meaningful to the department and allow the intern to provide valuable contributions. Interns experience a sense of personal accomplishment and learn about the corporate business culture through work assignments, structured activities, and exclusive intern networking events. Interns that demonstrate outstanding qualities may be invited back for a return internship the following summer or may be considered for full-time positions. The AI Design Intern supports the AI Design Hub in developing, testing, and deploying AI-enabled workflows that improve speed, capability, knowledge access, and decision-making across the Design development process. This is a project-based assignment, not an administrative one. Interns are embedded with designers and studio engineering, work on real pain points, and are expected to leave having built things that Design can actually use.
