Research And Development Intern

About the Role

We are looking for curious, self-motivated individuals who want to learn by building. As an R&D Intern at Forsidia, you will have opportunities to explore technical problems, experiment with new technologies, and contribute to hands-on projects. This opportunity is particularly suited to students, aspiring developers, and technology enthusiasts who want practical experience beyond tutorials and coursework. This is a fully remote, unpaid internship focused on learning, experimentation, and practical exposure.

Areas of Exploration

Depending on your interests, skills, and ongoing projects, you may work on:

• Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning: Experimenting with AI models, generative AI, computer vision, and intelligent applications.
• Software Development: Building tools, prototypes, applications, and experimental software products.
• Game Development & Simulation: Exploring game mechanics, interactive experiences, simulation environments, and robotics simulation using software-based tools.
• Research & Prototyping: Evaluating technologies, exploring technical approaches, and turning ideas into working prototypes.
• Open-Source Development: Contributing to suitable open-source projects and learning collaborative development practices.

All work will be conducted remotely using available software tools and development environments. Physical lab access and hardware access are not provided.

Not every intern will work across all these areas. Projects will depend on current priorities and individual interests and capabilities.

Key Responsibilities

• Research technical concepts, tools, libraries, and potential solutions.
• Develop prototypes, experiments, or features for ongoing projects.
• Write readable code, test implementations, and investigate issues.
• Document technical work, findings, and learnings.
• Share progress and collaborate through version control and remote communication.
• Learn unfamiliar technologies and solve problems independently.

Who Should Apply?

We welcome students, recent graduates, aspiring developers, and self-taught technology enthusiasts who are eager to gain practical experience. You may be a good fit if you:

• Have a genuine interest in one or more of our areas of exploration.
• Enjoy experimenting, building things, and understanding how technology works.
• Have basic programming or technical knowledge and are willing to develop your skills.
• Can learn independently, research unfamiliar problems, and communicate your progress.
• Are willing to take initiative and learn through practical challenges.

Curiosity, consistency, willingness to learn, and problem-solving ability matter more than an extensive résumé.

What You Can Gain

• Hands-on exposure to technical R&D and experimentation.
• Experience turning ideas into working prototypes.
• Familiarity with development tools, workflows, and open-source practices.
• Opportunities to build a portfolio through demonstrable contributions, subject to project permissions.
• Technical feedback and opportunities to explore different implementation approaches.

Internship Details

• Type: Internship
• Compensation: Unpaid
• Work arrangement: Fully remote
• Work style: Project-based, with an emphasis on independent learning and practical contributions.
• Duration and weekly commitment: To be discussed and mutually agreed upon before starting.

How to Apply

Please share:

• Your résumé or a brief introduction.
• Your areas of technical interest.
• Any projects, GitHub repositories, experiments, or other work you would like to showcase.
• A short note explaining what you would like to learn or build at Forsidia.

Personal projects and demonstrated curiosity are welcome.

Previous professional experience is not required.
