About Parspec Founded in 2021, Parspec is revolutionizing the materials supply chain for the $13 trillion USD construction industry by digitizing and organizing the industry's product data. Our proprietary AI technology maintains a current and comprehensive catalogue of millions of products, enabling our customers to identify products that best meet their needs–instantly.

Join us in building transformative technology that reshapes one of the world’s oldest and largest industries.
The Opportunity We’re seeking an Applied AI Engineer Intern to join Parspec in Summer 2026 (start date flexible). This role is part of the AI team and works closely with Product and Engineering on fast-moving, real-world applications of AI.
As an intern, you’ll apply modern AI and machine learning techniques to concrete product problems, such as understanding product specifications, improving product recommendations, and exploring early agentic AI workflows, while learning how AI systems are designed, built, evaluated, and shipped in the real world.
This is an ideal role for a student who wants hands-on experience applying AI to complex, messy industry data and customer-facing product workflows.
What You Will Achieve And Key Responsibilities
Why This Matters Construction remains one of the world’s largest and least digitized industries. Construction teams rely on manual workflows to interpret product specifications, identify suitable materials, compare options, and make procurement decisions. Parspec applies AI to power workflows that help stakeholders evaluate products, surface better options, and act with confidence. As an Applied AI Engineer Intern, your work will directly support these capabilities and the decisions they enable.
Who You Are You’re excited about applying AI to real-world problems that don’t come neatly packaged. You enjoy breaking down complex systems, working with imperfect data, and experimenting to find practical solutions. You’re curious, technically grounded, and comfortable collaborating with Product and Engineering partners to balance model performance, system constraints, and customer impact.
