Software Development Intern, AI Engineer (Applied​/Software)

Internship Overview

We are looking for an intern to join the Multi-Modal Generative AI team in the Netherlands. The intern will design, prototype, and evaluate multi‑agent systems that cooperate to reason, plan, use tools, verify outputs, and improve solutions across complex Shell workflows.

• Explore how frontier AI models and multi‑modal capabilities can process diverse inputs such as text requirements, technical documents, diagrams, images, structured data, rules, and domain knowledge.

• Build agent workflows for task decomposition, decision support, automated verification, optimisation, explainable recommendations, and human‑in‑the‑loop components.

• Use state‑of‑the‑art models and frameworks for agent orchestration, tool calling, evaluation, and deployment.

• Collaborate with AI researchers, engineers, and domain experts.

• Deliver a prototype component, evaluation results, technical documentation, and a final demo or presentation.

• Advance Shell’s capability in multi‑modal and collaborative agentic AI for complex business, engineering, and operational workflows.
• Reduce manual effort, accelerate analysis and decision‑making, improve consistency, and make specialist knowledge reusable across teams and domains.
• Develop and evaluate multi‑agent workflows.
• Explore multi‑modal reasoning.
• Improve automated verification and feedback mechanisms.
• Demonstrate how collaborative agentic AI can support faster, higher‑quality, and more scalable outcomes across Shell use cases.

Shell is an equal‑opportunity employer.
