Project Overview

We are exploring the frontier of Generative AI to revolutionize how we interact with data. This internship focuses on developing a "Natural Language to SQL" pipeline—allowing users to query databases using plain English. You will work closely with the engineering team to build, refine, and validate these GenAI models. A critical component of this role involves setting up a robust test chain using SOAP UI to ensure the generated queries are accurate, secure, and performant.

Key Responsibilities

• Prompt Engineering & Tuning:

Develop and refine prompts to improve the accuracy of GenAI-generated SQL queries for complex relational databases.

• Pipeline Integration:

Assist in connecting GenAI interfaces with our backend systems to facilitate seamless data retrieval.

• Automated Testing (SOAP UI):

Design and implement a comprehensive test suite in SOAP UI to validate the outputs of the AI-to-SQL engine.

• Performance Benchmarking:

Compare AI-generated SQL against human-written queries for efficiency and optimization.

• Security Validation:

Ensure the generated SQL adheres to security protocols, preventing issues like prompt injection or unauthorized data access.

Required Skills & Qualifications Category Desired Skillset Generative AI

Understanding of LLMs, Prompt Engineering, and the logic of Text-to-SQL conversion.

Data & SQL

Strong proficiency in SQL; ability to read and write complex joins, subqueries, and stored procedures.

Testing Tools

Experience with (or a strong desire to learn) SOAP UI or similar API testing frameworks.

Development

Basic scripting skills (Python is preferred) to bridge AI APIs with testing environments.

What’s in it for the Intern?

• Cutting-Edge Tech:

Gain hands-on experience in one of the most in-demand fields: the practical application of GenAI in enterprise data.

• Full-Cycle Exposure:

Move beyond "chatbots" to see how AI integrates with legacy systems and rigorous QA processes.

• High-Level Mentorship:

Work directly with senior leads to shape the future of the company’s AI initiatives.
