How you'll make AI practical
During your internship, you'll help our marketing team use AI smartly in daily work. You'll research different tools and test them out. And yes, AI had a hand in this text too. That's exactly why we're looking for someone who understands when AI helps and when you need to stay critically engaged.
We want to give AI a permanent place in our work at the marketing department. We see plenty of opportunities, but we're looking for someone who thinks technically, tests critically, and turns ideas into working prototypes. At AFAS, it doesn't stop at playing around in a test environment. You'll investigate where AI truly adds value, build applications that colleagues can use right away, and think critically about reliability, security, usability, and impact. What you create can go live! You'll be working on:
- Researching and testing AI tools, AI agents, and automations.
- Building useful tools, smart workflows, or internal AI assistants with vibecoding.
- Testing and experimenting: when does AI work well, when doesn't it, and why?
- Evaluating tools for reliability, security, data usage, and usability.
- Translating technical capabilities into practical solutions for colleagues.
You'll have a lot of freedom to get started on your own. Do you see an opportunity? Then you can explore it. And remember: making mistakes is perfectly fine. It's through mistakes that you learn what works and what doesn't. At the same time, security is our top priority. That's why you work with tools that AFAS has approved. You do vibecoding through our own environment, so we maintain control over data, access, and security. This way you can build and experiment freely, without us taking unnecessary risks.
Besides the marketing team, we also have a department with more than 70 developers. Want to brainstorm about technical challenges with someone? They'd be happy to think it through with you!
How you'll grow during your internship
You'll start in AFAS's marketing team. This team does everything: from online marketing and copywriting to events and design. This way you'll quickly learn how broad marketing is. You'll immediately discover where AI makes a real difference in practice.
You'll get good guidance from the team. But you'll also get plenty of space and trust. We're not looking for an intern who waits neatly for the next assignment. We're looking for someone who brings their own ideas and dares to try.
During your internship you'll learn:
- How to take AI applications from a great idea to a working solution.
- How to evaluate AI tools for quality, security, and applicability.
- How to use technical solutions in a real business environment.
- How to account for security, data, and approved tools.
- How to explain technical ideas clearly to colleagues.
You'll have room to make this a full-fledged internship project. Together we'll determine a research question that fits your education, for example around AI adoption, workflow automation, agentic AI, prompt engineering, data security, or the measurable impact of AI on marketing processes.
