Using its Full Spectrum Profiling™ (FSP®) technology, Cytek develops advanced flow cytometry instruments, reagents, software, and services that help researchers gain deeper biological insights. Headquartered in Fremont, California, Cytek serves customers around the world, including pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology organizations, and academic research institutions.\nAt Cytek, we are committed to innovation, collaboration, and enabling scientific progress. We are looking for a technically minded AI Automation Intern to help improve how our teams use data, streamline business processes, and explore practical applications of artificial intelligence and automation.\nWe're looking for a technically minded intern to help the data analytics team streamline the data used to design and develop Power BI and other dashboards. The role will eventually assist with the design and build an AI-powered tool that automates key parts of our Sales Operations data flow. You'll work closely with sales operations, finance, and IT stakeholders to understand how forecasting, CRM/ERP data reconciliation, and pipeline reporting currently work - then help build and test automation (scripts, LLM-based tools, dashboards) that reduces manual effort and improves data accuracy and speed.\nThis is a mixed research-and-build role: you'll start by exploring feasibility and mapping workflows, then move into prototyping a working tool.\nESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:\nTo perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform essential duties and responsibilities satisfactorily. Reasonable accommodation may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.\nMap and document current workflows used for forecast reconciliation, Salesforce pipeline reviews, and CRM/ERP data pulls to identify automation opportunities.\nResearch and evaluate feasible approaches (scripting, AI/LLM tools, RPA) for automating each workflow, including trade-offs and data/security constraints.\nBuild data pipelines that extract, clean, and merge data from Salesforce, SAP/ERP, and forecasting platforms (e.g., IBP) into unified, analysis-ready datasets.\nPrototype AI-assisted tools (e.g., LLM-powered anomaly detection, natural-language query interfaces, auto-generated pipeline summaries) that support forecast accuracy and data hygiene checks.\nAutomate recurring reports - attainment dashboards, pipeline health metrics, data reconciliation checks - that are currently built manually.\nDevelop scripts (Python/SQL) to flag data inconsistencies, duplicate records, or pricing/product configuration errors across systems.\nBuild a lightweight internal tool (dashboard, bot, or simple web app) that gives the sales team self-serve access to pipeline and forecast data.\nTest and validate automation outputs against analyst-produced reports to confirm accuracy before rollout.\nDocument your findings and tools so the sales ops team can maintain and extend the work after the internship.\nREQUIREMENTS & QUALIFICATIONS:\nThe requirements listed below are representative of the knowledge, skill, and/or ability required.\nCurrently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Information Systems, Analytics, or a related field.\nComfortable with Python and SQL for data extraction, cleaning, and automation.\nFamiliarity with (or strong interest in learning) Salesforce and ERP systems (SAP a plus) and their reporting/API structures.\nSome exposure to LLM/AI tooling (e.g., building with APIs like OpenAI/Anthropic, prompt engineering, or AI-assisted coding tools) - personal projects count.\nStrong Excel skills and general comfort working with messy, real-world data.\nInterest in sales operations, forecasting, or business analytics - no prior industry experience required, but curiosity about how sales data drives business decisions is a must.\nGood communicator - able to translate analyst workflows into technical requirements and explain tools back to non-technical stakeholders.\nSelf-directed and comfortable with ambiguity; this role involves figuring out how to automate a workflow, not just following a spec.\nNice to Have:\nExperience with dashboarding tools (Tableau, Power BI, or similar).\nPrior coursework or projects involving data pipelines, ETL, or workflow automation.\nInterest in life sciences, instrumentation, or B2B sales environments.\nINTERNSHIP DETAILS:\nType: Year-long internship, full-time, paid (hourly)\nLocation: On-site, Fremont, CA\nLength: 9-12 months\nWHAT YOU'LL GAIN:\nDirect exposure to how enterprise sales forecasting and CRM/ERP data actually work.\nExperience building real automation/AI tools for a business team, not just a class project.\nMentorship from sales operations and IT stakeholders on both the business and technical sides.\nCytek is an equal-opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, age, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, genetic information, disability status, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5229,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Biotechnology","Health Care","Laboratory Equipment"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-27T23:29:14Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"Filed H-1B visas in the last two years","filings_12m":0,"filings_prev_12m":4,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":null,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-29T16:27:21+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":3,"expected_fill_days":47,"reasons":["conf:3","win:early","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-31T05:58:55Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/cytek-biosciences-intern","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/cytek-biosciences-intern.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-01T01:23:04Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2136,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-02T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2542693},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2542693"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcytek-biosciences-intern"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcytek-biosciences-intern"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcytek-biosciences-intern"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/cytek-biosciences-intern\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcytek-biosciences-intern"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3366947}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"cytekbio.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3366947},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
