We are building foundation models trained on rich, continuous neural data - a high-resolution model of the brain at a scale never before possible.\nOur founding team spans machine learning, neuroscience, and neurotechnology, with prior work including the MICrONS project, Neuropixels, and the Enigma project, as well as foundational scientific contributions in learning, neural computation, and generative modeling. Our work sits at the frontier of AI research, and we believe the highest-impact discoveries will come from researchers and engineers working as a single, tightly collaborative team.\nThe name Metamorphic reflects our belief that the next advances in intelligence will come from a change in form, beyond scale - from artificial to natural intelligence.\nAbout the Role\nWe are seeking interns across a broad range of roles including computer vision, embodied AI and RL, robotics, agentic systems, language modeling, computational neuroscience, and ML engineering to join our growing AI research team for the summer. This is a high-impact, technically deep role at the frontier of ML research and engineering in an early stage company.\nYou'll thrive in this role if you:\nHave the ability to move from research code to production-quality systems\n\nAre a pragmatic problem solver with attention to scalability and reliability\n\nAre comfortable operating in fast-moving, research-driven environments\n\nAre eager to learn more about machine learning research in a novel scientific domain\n\nAre enthusiastic to work at an organization that functions as a single, cohesive team pursuing large-scale AI research\n\nHave ambitious goals for AI progress and are excited to create the best outcomes over the long term\n\nWe offer:\nThe chance to work on one of the most scientifically consequential AI projects being pursued today\n\nA small, world-class team where your contributions directly shape the science and the company\n\nCompetitive compensation and benefits\n\nStrong mentorship and career development\n\nSalary Range\n$6-8k/month depending on seniority.\nTimeline\nApplication Deadline: November 10th, 2026\nInterviews: November 11th - November 26th, 2026\nDecision Release: December 1st, 2026\nMinimum Qualifications\nBachelor's degree or equivalent experience, currently pursuing a PhD or MS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or another quantitative field\n\nStrong interest in one of the below:\nComputer vision\n\nEmbodied AI and RL\n\nAgentic systems\n\nRobotics\n\nLanguage\n\nML engineering\n\nComputational neuroscience\n\nNice to Have\nExperience conducting long-term development and/or research projects in academia or industry\n\nContributions to open-source ML projects\n\nPublications at top-tier conferences\n\nWe encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. If you don't see a role that fits, we encourage you to submit a general application and tell us how you'd like to contribute to our mission.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3168,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"master","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["AI for Science"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-20T18:58:39Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":1,"expected_fill_days":34,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-22T06:10:10Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":96000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/metamorphic-engineering-intern-summer-2027","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/metamorphic-engineering-intern-summer-2027.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-22T10:43:24Z","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":8085,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-23T00:00:00Z"}},"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":679134},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=679134"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmetamorphic-engineering-intern-summer-2027"},{"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%2Fmetamorphic-engineering-intern-summer-2027"},{"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%2Fmetamorphic-engineering-intern-summer-2027"},{"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/metamorphic-engineering-intern-summer-2027\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmetamorphic-engineering-intern-summer-2027"}]}
