From the posting

At Scale, our mission is to develop reliable AI systems for the world's most important decisions. For 10 years, Scale has provided the high-quality data and full-stack technologies that power the world's leading models, and has helped enterprises and governments build, deploy, and oversee AI applications that deliver real impact. We work closely with industry leaders like Meta, Ernst & Young, Mayo Clinic, Time Inc., the Government of Qatar, and U.S. government agencies including the Army and Air Force.

Scale's internship is not a side project. Interns own real, shipped work on the same roadmaps as full-time engineers, with mentorship from world-class talent and a culture that values ownership, speed, and truth-seeking. Many of our interns return as full-time Scaliens.

Develop evaluation infrastructure that measures model reliability for enterprise and public sector customers

Ship agentic AI applications and the tooling that makes them observable, testable, and safe to deploy

Ship tools that accelerate the growth of new qualified contributors on Scale's platform

Build fraud-detection systems that remove bad actors and keep Scale's contributor base safe and trusted

Use models to estimate the quality of tasks and contributors, and guarantee quality on requests at large scale …

About the pay figures (~): These are estimates. Yearly figures are estimated total comp ranges: the employer's posted pay range, or, with no posted pay, the median to 90th-percentile BLS wage for similar jobs, plus typical benefits and bonus, without stock. Hourly figures for internships and contract roles are posted rates or BLS hourly wage ranges. Figures outside the U.S. and for loosely matched titles are rough ballparks. How we estimate
