AI Operations Intern
Lowell, MA - USA
Job Summary
This is not a traditional internship with a pre-packaged summer project track. You will work directly on high-stakes live workstreams across three core tracks:
Onboard train and enable 5 J.B. Hunt business units.
Triage incoming user feedback and track AI adoption unit-by-unit.
Perform quality assurance checks on agent output before it reaches live operators.
Analyze user behavior and document real-world freight operations workflows.
Conduct user and competitive research.
Scenario-test new agentic AI capabilities prior to live enterprise rollout.
Partner with Forward Deployed Engineers on live production deployments.
Pull clean and validate live data feeds.
Execute integration and regression testing and build internal tooling to eliminate manual overhead.
We do not require a background in logistics. We hire students across Supply Chain Business Analytics Computer Science and Engineering.
Are Process-Curious: You care about how things actually work in practice not how they look on a slide deck. You have dug into a real process at a job an internship or a student org and can describe where it broke down.
Ask & Pursue: You are comfortable asking a basic question of an experienced operator and chasing it to the root cause. Tell us about a time the obvious question turned out to matter.
Communicate Clearly: You can explain a problem in writing in a few sentences to someone who was not in the room. Explaining what you found is half the job.
Thrive in Ambiguity: You have started something before anyone asked you to. Tell us what it was and how far you got.
Want Ownership: You have been the person responsible for something ending well not just for finishing your own part of it.
- AI-First Mindset: You have built something with AI tools not just chatted with them. A prompt system an automation a script a small agent. You can explain how it works and where it breaks.
- Location: Onsite in Northwest Arkansas at J.B. Hunt. Proximity to real operators is essential.
Mentorship: Matched with one Overroute owner with defined scope and weekly check-ins.
Schedule: Part-time during the academic year full-time during summer.
