AI Operations Intern
Why This Role Exists
Aristotle is an 8-person team building the world's first truly personal AI tutor. To scale faster than headcount, we need an intern who can wire up AI + automations + humans into rock-solid workflows. This is not prompt-writing — it's rooting out operational chaos and replacing it with systems.
What You'll Do
- Map messy processes end-to-end, spot failure modes, and redesign them into reliable workflows.
- Build automations with Gumloop, Zapier, Retool, or quick Python scripts that pull in AI models, APIs, and alerts.
- Instrument every flow with metrics, fallbacks, and documentation so anyone on the team can operate it.
- Partner with product, support, and GTM to eliminate manual toil and unlock faster shipping cycles.
What Makes You a Fit
- You've shipped projects using data, APIs, or workflow builders (SQL, Sheets, Make/Zapier, custom dashboards).
- You're obsessed with reliability — alerts, logging, clear docs, and post-mortems are second nature.
- You can explain complex systems in simple diagrams and write-ups.
- You get energy from being the glue between product, engineering, and operations.
How We Work Together
You'll sit next to the founders in Hayes Valley, join daily stand-ups, and chase the biggest operational risks facing the company each week. We expect you to propose solutions, build them, measure impact, and iterate — often in the same day.
