AI Infrastructure Engineer Intern (Compute Efficiency & Scheduling) - 2027 Summer

We decide how ByteDance's massive fleet of computers gets used — turning hundreds of clusters and millions of daily workloads (microservices, big data, and large AI/LLM jobs) into a system that's highly efficient, reliable, and increasingly self-managing, powered by our own intelligent scheduling platform Godel (open-sourced to the community). Our mission: get the most value out of every unit of computing power, at a scale few places in the world can offer, and let AI increasingly help run the infrastructure.

We are looking for talented individuals to join us for an internship.

Our internship program offers students hands-on experience, industry exposure, and opportunities to apply their knowledge to real-world challenges while building a strong foundation for personal and professional growth.

Interns will gain practical experience, explore potential career paths, and participate in social events, learning programs, and development workshops alongside industry professionals.

Candidates may apply to a maximum of two positions across Our Company and its affiliates globally.

Applications will be considered in the order they are submitted.

Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, so we encourage you to apply early.

Please clearly state your availability in your resume, including your start and end dates.

Candidates who pass resume screening will be invited to participate in Our Company's technical online assessment.

What You Might Work On One focused, real project within our scope — for example: - Help make our intelligent, AI-driven scheduler smarter at placing and balancing workloads. - Explore new ways to get more useful work out of the same hardware — smarter use of compute, memory, or power. - Build tools that help a global platform run reliably and increasingly manage itself, including AI-agent-assisted automation.

Why This Role Matters The AI era runs on compute — and using it efficiently is one of the defining challenges for our company and the whole industry.

Our team owns that challenge at ByteDance's global scale, making the infrastructure behind TikTok and our AI/LLM products faster, smarter, and far more efficient.

As an intern, you'll get a real project at the center of it.

Minimum Qualifications - Currently pursuing a Undergraduate/ Master's in Computer Science or a related discipline. - Able to commit to a 12-week internship during Summer 2027. - Experience coding in Go, C++, Python, Java, or C#.
