About Filyn AI

Filyn AI is building the regulatory operating system for next-generation biotech.

We’re tackling one of the hardest technical and human problems in medicine: regulatory submission. Starting with INDs (Investigational New Drug applications), we’re replacing manual, fragmented processes with intelligent, AI-native infrastructure that brings speed, clarity, and confidence to drug development.

Think of it as the Stripe + GitHub Copilot for regulatory science — a foundation that helps lean biotech teams get therapies to patients faster, and with fewer compliance risks.

About the Internship

This is a high-ownership, high-impact role designed for technically elite candidates ready to build, ship, and grow.

You’ll report directly to our CTO — a veteran technology executive with 20+ years of experience, multiple successful exits, and deep expertise in systems architecture and team scaling. You’ll also work closely with our founder, who holds a PhD + MBA and brings cross-domain insight from science, business, and product.

We don’t do toy projects. You’ll be embedded in the real codebase from Day 1 — building production systems, contributing to core AI agent infrastructure, and solving problems that matter.

If there’s a strong mutual fit, this internship can extend or convert to a full-time founding engineer position (with equity potential depending on performance).

Who We’re Looking For

You might be a fit if you:

Are pursuing a BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science or a related technical field

Write clean, reliable code in Python and/or TypeScript

Have a strong grasp of software engineering practices, debugging, and version control

Work independently, learn fast, and solve problems without needing a full spec

Thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments

Are excited about AI/ML, even if you’re early in your journey

Care deeply about real-world impact, not just technical novelty

What You'll Work With

You’ll gain real-world experience across a modern AI infrastructure stack, including:

AI Agent Systems

Autonomous agent design, orchestration, testing, and deployment

Integration with LLM-native tools like LangChain, GPT-4, Claude, etc.

Platform Development

Core systems in Python and TypeScript

Internal developer tools that improve velocity and safety

Production features used in live regulatory workflows

API Design & Integration

Scalable, secure, API-first backends

Integration with internal and third-party services

Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps

Experience with CI/CD, deployment automation, and performance monitoring

Familiarity with AWS/GCP, Docker, Terraform (bonus but not required)

Exposure to distributed systems and cloud-native architecture

This role is ideal for someone who wants to go deep across the stack — from agent-level logic to backend APIs to infrastructure and observability.

Internship Structure

Start: Summer 2025 (rolling applications)

Duration: 8 weeks minimum; extendable up to 6–9 months based on fit

Schedule: 100% remote and fully flexible — you choose your hours

Mentorship: Weekly deep-dives and code reviews with CTO

Compensation: Base + performance-based bonus

Pathway: Potential conversion to full-time founding engineer with equity consideration based on impact

Why Filyn?

Because you want more than just a “resume builder.” You want to:

Work with people operating at the highest level of technical and strategic depth

Build systems that matter—where technical quality maps directly to human outcomes

Go beyond demo-ware and contribute to real-world infrastructure

Grow under the mentorship of experienced executives, not get lost in a giant org

Take ownership. Move fast. Earn trust. And shape what gets built

Apply now if you're ready to learn fast, ship real things, and be treated like a builder — not a student.

Let’s build something that lasts.
