ISG Software Engineering Undergrad Internship

As a Software Engineering Intern, you will work within a pod structure alongside experienced engineers, learning to steer AI coding agents, validate agent-generated outputs, and contribute to real projects using Dell's spec-driven development (SDD) model. You will be paired with a dedicated mentor who will guide your growth throughout the summer, helping you build fluency in agentic development platforms, AI/ML tooling, programming languages, cloud development operations, and other applicable technologies. The internship culminates in a capstone presentation where you will share your findings, learnings, and contributions with a broader leadership team.

ACCOUNTABILITIES

• Supports AI Agent Steering & Validation: Assists in orchestrating AI coding

agents throughout the development workflow under the guidance of a mentor, learning to review, refine, and validate agent-generated output for faithfulness to engineering requirements.

• Learns Context Engineering: Gains exposure to engineering the context that

agents operate from (including repository context, constraints, prior decisions, and reference patterns) understanding that context quality is the primary determinant of output quality.

• Validates Output Quality & Security: Assists in validating agent-generated

code for correctness and security, learning to apply secure coding standards and identify potential vulnerabilities introduced through agent-generated code, with mentor oversight.

• Contributes to Testing & Evaluation: Supports the design and maintenance of

automated test suites and agent evaluation harnesses for both agent-generated and human-generated output, under the direction of senior engineers.

• Builds Cross-Domain Context: Works within stream-aligned or deep-stack pods,

gaining exposure to multiple domains and learning to move fluidly to the work that matters most.

• Develops AI Fluency: Builds foundational skills in agentic tooling, prompt
