Combining startup agility with HP’s global scale, we’re building intelligent technologies that redefine how the world works, creates, and collaborates.\nWe’re assembling a diverse, world-class team-engineers, designers, researchers, and product minds-focused on creating an intelligent ecosystem across HP’s portfolio. Together, we’re developing intuitive, adaptive solutions that spark creativity, boost productivity, and make collaboration seamless.\nWe create breakthrough solutions that make complex tasks feel effortless, teamwork more natural, and ideas more impactful-always with a human-centric mindset.\nBy embedding AI advancements into every HP product and service, we’re expanding what’s possible for individuals, organisations, and the future of work.\nJoin us as we reinvent work, so people everywhere can do their best work.\nAbout The Role\nHP IQ's AI Machine Learning (AML) team is building the foundational platform powering a new generation of agentic devices. This platform orchestrates the complete lifecycle of AI models: from creation and fine-tuning through optimized inference and intelligent orchestration. The team works to make complex AI capabilities run efficiently on-device, enabling locally-deployed agentic experiences that reduce token costs and improve privacy. In this internship role, you will contribute to one or more core pillars of the AML platform: model inference optimization, orchestration and agent workflows, or model creation and fine-tuning. You will partner closely with experienced engineers to ship features that directly impact HP's next-generation devices and gain visibility into how each component of an end-to-end AI system integrates and scales.\nWhat You Might Do\nWork on model hosting and inference optimization, learning how to profile, benchmark, and accelerate model execution on resource-constrained devices; experiment with quantization, distillation, or other optimization techniques to reduce latency and memory footprint.\nContribute to orchestration frameworks and agent workflows, building or extending systems that coordinate multiple models and agents using tools like LangGraph or LangChain; develop an understanding of when agentic patterns are appropriate and how to design robust, scalable orchestrations.\nParticipate in model customization and fine-tuning, taking pre-trained language models and adapting them for specific use cases; conduct experiments, evaluate results, and iterate on model configurations to improve performance for target tasks.\nCollaborate cross-functionally with system software, design, and product teams to understand how your work integrates into the broader platform; communicate progress, challenges, and technical decisions clearly and seek mentorship from engineers with deep expertise in your focus area.\nContribute to open-source projects or internal libraries relevant to inference, orchestration, or model training; demonstrate ownership of end-to-end outcomes and ownership of improving the platform's capabilities and reliability.\nEssential Qualifications \nCurrently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field, or equivalent practical experience. Some coursework or project experience in machine learning, systems engineering, or software development is expected.\nDemonstrated technical communication skills: ability to articulate project goals, outcomes, challenges, and technical decisions clearly; comfort explaining technical concepts to peers and mentors.\nGenuine familiarity with one or more of the following: model inference and optimization, orchestration frameworks (LangGraph, LangChain), model fine-tuning and adaptation, or similar systems-level AI work. Project experience, open-source contributions, or course projects demonstrating depth in at least one area are highly valued.\nCollaboration and ownership mindset: comfort working in cross-functional teams, asking for help when needed, and taking responsibility for outcomes; ability to operate with some ambiguity and seek clarity proactively.\nProblems-solving orientation: ability to debug issues, evaluate technical tradeoffs, and make reasonable decisions when multiple approaches are viable.\nPreferred Skills\nOpen-source contributions to inference engines (e.g., vLLM), model repositories, or orchestration libraries; demonstrated ability to contribute meaningfully to a shared codebase.\nExperience with Python and ML-adjacent libraries (PyTorch, TensorFlow, HuggingFace, FastAPI, or similar).\nFamiliarity with on-device or edge AI constraints and optimization techniques.\nExperience with system-level profiling and performance optimization.\nHourly Pay Range: $45.00-$51.00 per hour. Actual compensation will be determined based on factors such as skills, qualifications, and experience.\n2027 Internship Program Dates: May/June-August/September 2027. Final dates will be based on student schedules.\nCompensation & Benefits (Full-Time Employees)\n\nThe salary range for this role is listed above. Final salary offered is based upon multiple factors including individual job-related qualifications, education, experience, knowledge and skills.\nAt HP IQ, we offer a competitive and comprehensive benefits package, including:\nHealth insurance\nDental insurance\nVision insurance\nLong term/short term disability insurance\nEmployee assistance program\nFlexible spending account\nLife insurance\nGenerous time off policies, including; 4-12 weeks fully paid parental leave based on tenure\n11 paid holidays\nAdditional flexible paid vacation and sick leave (US benefits overview)\n\nWhy HP IQ?\nHP IQ is HP’s new AI innovation lab, building the intelligence to empower humanity-reimagining how we work, create, and connect to shape the future of work.\nInnovative Work Help shape the future of intelligent computing and workplace transformation.\n\nAutonomy and Agility Work with the speed and focus of a startup, backed by HP’s scale.\n\nMeaningful Impact Build AI-powered solutions that help people and organisations thrive.\n\nFlexible Work Environment Freedom and flexibility to do your best work.\n\nForward-Thinking Culture We learn fast, stay future-focused, and imagine what comes next-together.\n\nEqual Opportunity Employer (EEO) Statement\nHP, Inc. provides equal employment opportunity to all employees and prospective employees, without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, citizenship, sexual orientation, age, disability, or status as a protected veteran, marital status, familial status, physical or mental disability, medical condition, pregnancy, genetic predisposition or carrier status, uniformed service status, political affiliation or any other characteristic protected by applicable national, federal, state, and local law(s).\nPlease be assured that you will not be subject to any adverse treatment if you choose to disclose the information requested.
