Agentic Ops Intern [Remote]

The Opportunity

As an Agentic Ops Intern, you'll build systems that take on real operational work — not prototypes, not demos. You'll turn messy, human processes into agents that execute consistently, reliably, and at speed.

You'll architect and ship agents end-to-end: define the problem space, design multi-agent orchestration patterns with shared persistent state, build the tooling and memory layers that let agents compound intelligence over time, and iterate based on real production usage. You’ll work across the full stack of agent infrastructure — from intent classification and context assembly to feedback synthesis and tool integration — building systems that define problems clearly, drive decisions, and execute reliably in real-world business workflows.

You'll work closely with operators and engineers to identify where agentic leverage exists, then drive solutions forward. You'll operate with autonomy, but not in isolation — our team provides context, feedback, and support as you build. When something is unclear, you bring clarity. When something breaks, you move to fix it.

Strong interns don't just complete projects — they build systems that become part of how we operate. The best turn that into a full-time role.

What You’ll Do & Learn

• Design, build, and deploy agent-driven systems for key workflows (talent, onboarding, internal tooling) — ensuring adoption and real impact on how the business runs
• Identify and prioritize high-impact opportunities where agent-driven systems can create leverage, and translate ambiguous business problems into scalable, executable solutions.
• Design and refine agent behavior — prompting, memory, tools, and orchestration — to improve performance over time
• Own a system end-to-end and its performance: accuracy, speed, reliability, and adoption improve because you’re in the loop
• Work closely with internal users to ensure what you build is trusted, used, and embedded into daily workflows
• Identify opportunities to streamline, accelerate, or automate fragmented work through adaptive, agent-based systems
• Document what you build so it scales across the team — not just for you, but for others to reuse and extend

About You

• You’re actively exploring or building with AI agents — you’re curious, hands-on, and like testing what’s possible
• You think in systems — inputs, outputs, feedback loops, and where things break
• You can operate in ambiguity and make progress — you don’t need everything defined to get started
• You care about outcomes — not just demos, but systems that hold up under real use
• You take ownership of your work and move problems forward, pulling in others when it helps you get to a better result
• You learn quickly across domains — technical, operational, or wherever the problem is
• You build with iteration in mind — ship, observe, improve, repeat

Preferred Experience

• Final-year student (undergraduate or grad program), recent grad — or early in your career and already building with intent
• You’ve experimented with designing multi-tier agent memory architectures (persistent, episodic, and learned knowledge layers) and orchestrating multi-agent systems with shared state, feedback loops, and compounding intelligence over time.
• You’ve found your way into building with technology — through school, projects, or a self-directed path — and can point to things you’ve shipped
• You’ve experimented with LLMs, agents, or automation tools (OpenAI APIs, LangChain, Zapier, etc.) beyond just following tutorials
• You can code well enough to prototype, test, and iterate (Python or similar)
• You’ve had exposure to workflows, operations, or systems — and have some sense of how real work gets done
• You’ve built side projects, tools, or experiments that improve real tasks — shipped, used, and iterated on (this matters more than credentials)

About Nascent

Founded in 2020, [Nascent]( exists to build, expand, and capture opportunity, in open markets and permissionless technologies. Building from a base of permanent capital, we deploy assets across a range of both liquid and long-term strategies that ensure we are among the most active users of the open financial system we are helping to build. We've made venture investments in [100+ early-stage teams]( that we believe have the potential to create substantive change, expand boundaries, and find new horizons. We are consistently on the hunt for the most competitive and curious minds exploring the edges of the crypto ecosystem and leverage our hyper flexible structure to accelerate ideas into fully deployed strategies.

Our Team & Culture

At [Nascent]( we are an interdisciplinary team of investors, builders & creators, capable of achieving more together than we can as individuals. We offer the opportunity to contribute to building the future global economic system with a world-class team and culture that pairs the freedom to explore, experiment & play with a competitive drive to win. We invest in our people by providing the autonomy to build, coupled with accountability & honest feedback to help learn, grow, perform & win. Our distributed team understands the value of in-person time—we encourage team members to come together for more frequent in-person work.

Principles that Drive Our Team & Work

• Compete to win
• Explore, experiment, play
• Always be building
• Seek and speak truth
• Own your shit.

What We Offer

• Competitive hourly pay — you’re doing real work, and we treat it that way
• Flexible 10–12 week program (May–August) with start dates that fit your schedule
• Opportunity to convert to full-time based on performance
• Remote-first with flexible hours (within ±3 hours of EST)
• Mentorship and coaching from a team of world class operators, engineers, and subject matter experts — learn by building, not observing
• Awesome Nascent swag!
