About the role#
Xsolla is transitioning to an AI-first company. This internship focuses on driving that shift by building internal AI tooling and proof-of-concept applications on our APIs. You will work alongside senior engineers and a global cohort of interns to ship production-grade code that reaches real users. This is not an observation role. You will receive a problem and a mentor, and you will be expected to build the solution.
What you'll do#
- Collaborate with senior engineers to identify AI integration opportunities and build solutions that remove friction.
- Develop applications using Xsolla APIs and SDKs to demonstrate the speed of AI-assisted development.
- Ship code that is adopted by internal teams or external customers.
- Use agentic coding tools like Cursor or Claude Code as your primary development method.
- Participate in weekly lightning-talk demos to share your builds and exchange workflows with other interns.
What you'll need#
- Current student or recent graduate in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Data Science, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, Mechanical Engineering, Statistics, or Cybersecurity.
- Genuine passion for building, demonstrated through side projects, hackathons, or open-source contributions.
- Real AI fluency, including experience using agentic coding tools to build and verify projects.
- Comfort with developing modern full-stack solutions.
- A strong bias toward action and the ability to start building before receiving a formal specification.
Location & details#
- This is a full-time, paid internship based on-site in Los Angeles, California.
- The term is rolling.
- Please note that we do not offer sponsorship for this role.

How to get in at Xsolla
Applying early at Xsolla gives you a distinct advantage because recruiters review applications before the candidate pool grows too large.

Reaching out to the right person is just as important as your timing. Intern Insider surfaces the recruiters behind the company's roles so you can contact them directly.
