Job description

We’re looking for a Member of Technical Staff intern to work hand-in-hand with our founders and team This is a hands-on role that combines engineering, storytelling, and community.

You'll be part of our mission of connecting AI agents to the web. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Take part in the development of new products and features built on top of Linkup's proprietary index. - Develop and maintain SDKs, templates, integrations, and reference implementations for AI and agentic workflows. - Build and ship polished demos, sample apps, and starter kits that showcase what's possible with Linkup's APIs. - Produce technical content: blog posts, tutorials, videos, and benchmarks that make complex tech approachable. - Collect and synthesize developer feedback to inform product and developer experience priorities. WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS Every demo, integration, and product you build helps define how AI agents connect to the web. You'll operate on the frontier between product and developers, bringing the voice of builders into everything we build and say. If you love blending engineering with impact, building things developers actually use: this role is for you. YOU'RE A GREAT FIT IF YOU - Have high agency: you see something that should exist, and you build it. You don't wait to be told what to do. What would be a big plus: - Hands-on experience with APIs, LLMs, agents, and DevTools. - A taste for turning technical depth into compelling storytelling. - Participation in active developer communities, hackathons, or open-source projects. . DETAILS You'll work shoulder to shoulder with the founders and the team, with real ownership from day one: your work ships to production and reaches thousands of developers. ABOUT LINKUP OUR VISION We believe in a future of AI agents and the agentic web. These digital entities can create more value for humanity than we ever could alone, but they depend on the internet to operate, collaborate, take action, and gather information. AI agents need web search. To perform well, they require information that is current, reliable, and context‑specific—not the diffuse, steadily aging knowledge frozen at their last training cut‑off. Modern web search is built for humans, not AIs. Instead of trusted facts, it serves links, ads, and click‑bait. People want visually engaging pages; AI systems need structured truth. An AI can absorb oceans of data, while human attention barely skims the surface. Humans think visually and intuitively; AI reasons in latent space. Web 2.0 is sunsetting. The deck is being reshuffled, and the Bing‑Google search oligopoly is crumbling. Indexing ever more pages is no longer the goal; semantically organizing facts for AI systems is. In the coming agentic web, Google's ad‑driven model has no natural home. Search for AI must be rebuilt from the ground up. We are reconstructing the web as a rigorously structured knowledge layer, mapping every concept, entity, and claim into a coherent semantic graph. This foundation delivers verified facts and rich context to AI instantly, unlocking faster reasoning, higher accuracy, and radically more useful answers for everyone. Humans search Google; AI searches Linkup. OUR MISSION Reality never stands still, and neither should intelligence. Linkup reconnects language models to a living stream of verified facts, ensuring AIs remain as current and insightful as the world they serve. Our mission is to deliver the world's freshest, most trusted knowledge to AIs. OUR CULTURE Our culture is built on the following values: - Mission. We believe we play a critical role in building the agentic web. We are 100% committed to our mission of bringing the reality of the world to AI agents. - Speed. We build fast, we build to last. We get things done, well. - Ownership. We empower every team member to take ownership of their projects, ensuring they see them through to successful completion. - Teamwork. Our strength lies in our unity. We rely on one another and embrace our diversity as a core asset. - Humility. We maintain low egos, showing respect for others and continuously learning from their insights and experiences. We expect all team members to take an active role in shaping our company culture. OUR TEAM We are a small technical team, working shoulder to shoulder to build the web of agents. A bit more about our 3 co-founders: - Philippe Mizrahi linkedin.com Led the development of Lyft's Autonomous Vehicles marketplace. Previously launched Amundsen amundsen.io, an open source search engine. - Denis Charrier linkedin.com Founding Engineer at Niland, an audio search company (acquired by Spotify), then Staff Engineer at Spotify. 15y of software development experience. - Boris Toledano linkedin.com Led robotics at Carrefour, after 3y at McKinsey & Co working on public affairs and digital transformation.
