Data Science Intern, Summer 2026

About The Role

Join Jobfair®’s product organization as a summer intern. You will work with a group of senior data scientists to fine-tune pre-trained models developing multi-modal ML models to extract meaningful metadata from audio, video, image, artwork, and text (including things like resumes, job descriptions, and pre-interview responses) that could be used in numerous downstream applications such as segmentation, forecasting, targeting, matching, and recommendation.

These applications can drive significant impacts in candidate discovery, employer workflows, product personalization, and growth.

You will learn skills in ML, NLP, and work with state-of-the-art LLM models, building stakeholder relationships, and executive communication. This opportunity will require close collaboration with Product, Data Engineering, Operations, and other data scientists.

What You Will Do

• Fine-tune multi-modal foundational models
• Work with cutting-edge LLM models to extract meaningful metadata
• Build pipelines based on video, audio, text, artwork data and get the data ready for modeling
• Collaborate with data engineers to ensure the accuracy and quality of data
• Present the methods and outputs effectively using data visualization tools or oral presentations

Required Qualifications & Skills

• Exceptional curiosity, and a drive to learn new tools and work with new models
• Strong ability to build relationships with teammates, business partners, and technical colleagues
