Numenta Internship Program


A limited number of paid internship positions are available throughout the calendar year, including spring and fall. The commitment is for 3 to 4 months, full time. Numenta’s interns will get an opportunity to experiment with, and extend, our core HTM learning algorithms and software tools.

Some example projects include:
  1. Explore algorithm parameter spaces in the context of a machine vision task
  2. Suggest novel methods to automatically adapt the parameters for a given task
  3. Compare different versions of the learning algorithm on sample data sets
  4. Use HTM algorithms on novel applications
  5. Design and implement visualization tools
  6. Suggest and implement improvements or new algorithms based on above experience with existing algorithms.

Desired Qualifications And Skill Set

  • Experience with machine learning and pattern recognition algorithms. Good understanding of probability theory, such as Bayesian models.
  • Solid programming skills in at least one language, preferably Python or C++
  • Excellent communication and documentation skills.
  • Motivated self-starter.
  • Enrolled in undergraduate or graduate studies in CS, EE or related disciplines (graduation preferably date no later than 2010).

Qualified applicants should send the following:

  • Cover letter describing their specific interest in Numenta and HTMs.
  • Resume, including list of relevant course work.
