Description
Advantest America, a global leader in Semiconductor Test and Measurement, is seeking a motivated and innovative engineering student to explore cutting-edge applications of machine learning and generative AI. This internship provides hands-on experience working with emerging
AI systems and integrating them into Advantest’s advanced testing
platforms.
Location: Austin, TX or San Jose, CA (headquarters)
Role Overview
In this role, you will contribute to research and prototyping efforts focused on LLM-powered reasoning and evaluation systems. You will explore how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and agentic workflows can be used to analyze, compare, and assess complex technical content at scale. The internship emphasizes building AI systems that support decision-making, qualitative judgment, and structured feedback in real-world engineering and research environments.
You will work with unstructured and semi-structured documents, design multi-step reasoning pipelines, and evaluate system behavior against domain-specific expectations and constraints.
Key Responsibilities
Develop and execute an approach for a detailed market analysis in different area of the AI tools and companies
Competitive analysis of AI usage in the semiconductor market
Provide summaries, presentations and guidance about collaborations and partnerships
Analyze Project Management execution pipeline and propose efficiency improvements
Requirements:
- Currently enrolled in a BS or MS program in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
- Basic understanding of product management and market analysis methodologies
- Familiar with key major LLMs, AI tools
- Strong programming skills in Python
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, especially for explaining technical decisions
- Ability to work independently and communicate technical ideas clearly
Additional Skills Preferred (but not required):
- Interest in building AI systems that support human judgment and decision-making, not just generation
- Comfort working with imperfect data, evolving requirements, and subjective evaluation criteria
