Job Description
About Safari AI
Safari AI's vision is to Automate Action of the leading companies in the physical economy, from Entertainment, Live Venues, QSR's, Retail and beyond. The company uses computer vision AI to Measure, Alert and provide AI-generated Recommendations at the operations of leading enterprises such as Merlin/Legoland, 7-11, Tanger Outlets, Charlotte Hornets, Calgary Flames, and more. This year, Safari AI's platform will begin to use this data and to suggest to clients how they can optimize their operations to generate higher throughput, more revenue and optimize staff deployment.
Safari AI is venture-funded and expects to raise its Series A in 2026.
Leadership & Culture
Safari AI is co-founded by Ali Vahabzadeh & Kaiwen Yuan, two leaders who have meaningful exits under their belts and have managed large, high-performing Go To Market and Engineering teams. The company is headquartered in Miami with the Engineering team based in Vancouver with some distributed team members.
About You And How You Succeed At Safari AI
You're excited about building a product and creating a market that hasn't been done before. You have a strong bias toward action when you are stuck but are not afraid to ask for help when you need to. You're a high agency contributor, eager to test new ways of doing things and take advantage of the freedom and culture an early stage startup can afford you. You want to lead the company's engagement with category leaders in a variety of industries, solving some of their biggest challenges.
About the RoleWe are seeking GTM Engineering interns to join our team for 6-12 months, with the opportunity to become a full-time team member afterwards pending performance. Interns will work closely with our GTM team on automating workflows and designing demos for client prospects. Interns will have an opportunity to work with cutting-edge AI technology and to be part of a dynamic and innovative team.
What you will be working on Weekly Basis
- Build and iterate on AI-powered go-to-market tools that help Safari AI scale outreach and accelerate deals
- Develop solutions that are robust across customer contexts: varying industries, use cases, and stages of the sales funnel, ensuring a consistent and compelling prospect experience
- Work with a growing team of sales, marketing, and product engineers to ship GTM experiments quickly and feed learnings back into the product roadmap
- Design and maintain the systems, templates, and data pipelines that power outbound sequences, lead nurturing flows, and customer onboarding
- Build and maintain AI-driven prospect research and account-scoring pipelines that surface high-fit venues (stadiums, theme parks, retail, cruise, ski) and enrich them with operational signals (camera count, footprint, parent org, tech stack)
- Develop vertical-specific demo environments and ROI calculators that translate Safari AI's computer vision outputs (queue times, dwell, occupancy, conversion) into language and metrics each buyer persona cares about
- Operate the outbound infrastructure stack — sending platform, CRM, enrichment, and reply-handling agents — and continuously tune deliverability, persona logic, and conversation state machines based on live performance data
Requirement for the Role
- Only students who can commit 6 months (2026/04-2027/01) will be screened
- Senior undergraduate or graduate school students in computer science or relevant field with exposure to classic and modern computer vision and machine learning techniques
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- Self-motivated, critical thinking and enthusiastic in solving real-world problems
- Experience with public cloud such as GCP, Azure or AWS
- Ability to design, implement, present, and operate independently without oversight
- Good business insight and exceptional analytical skills
- Comfortable wiring together modern GTM tooling (HubSpot, SmartLead/Instantly, Clay, Apollo, Zapier/n8n, Notion) and writing light Python or TypeScript to glue systems together
- Hands-on experience prompting and orchestrating LLM APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI) for production use cases — not just chat, but agents, classification, and structured output
- Working knowledge of SQL and at least one data warehouse or relational DB (PostgreSQL, BigQuery, Snowflake)
Nice to Have's
- Experiences in startup environment
- Exposure to B2B enterprise sales motions, especially with non-technical buyers in physical-venue industries (sports, hospitality, retail, attractions)
- Familiarity with computer vision concepts and the operational realities of CCTV/IP camera deployments
- Prior work building internal tools, dashboards, or AI agents that were actually adopted by a non-engineering team
What Safari AI Offers
- An opportunity to shape an early-stage AI startup and revolutionize how businesses get data and make decisions
- Professional growth at a fast-growing, venture-funded startup with a proven founder and leadership team
Why bet on Computer Vision and Safari AI?
- Huge opportunity hiding in plain sight: leveraging already-installed cameras to automate and real-time action on operational data
- Already the market leader in enterprise CV by working with industry leaders with billions in revenue
- Large chasm between customer knowledge and market availability, i.e. customers don't know what is available in the market...yet.
- Early leader in computer vision; everyone is small and unbranded (i.e. no Amazon or Google in the room to compete with)
- Very modular, allowing Safari AI and its customers to invent whole new use cases on a regular basis
- Developed the tech and data pipelines over three years and invested several million dollars and is now ready to scale
