Requirements
  • Currently a Senior or Graduate student enrolled in a degree program in Business, Computer Science, Health Informatics, Operations, or a related field
  • Hands-on experience with AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, or similar LLMs
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; able to translate technical ideas for non-technical audiences
  • Ability to work independently, manage ambiguity, and prioritize across multiple projects
Responsibilities
  • Partner with operational leaders to identify high-friction, high-volume manual workflows and opportunities to automate and improve processes using AI and data science across claims, plan administration, client services, and clinical/UM functions
  • Design and build AI-assisted tools and prototype solutions using Anthropic’s Claude platform – from prompt-based assistants to lightweight internal apps; focus is on initial concepts and working prototypes, not full-scale production builds
  • Prototype quickly; target concept-to-working-demo timelines of days, not weeks; partner with engineers and technical team members to hand off and build out solutions beyond the prototype stage
  • Collaborate with the AI & Automation Engineering team on solutions requiring API integrations or multi-system workflows
  • Document use cases, build logic, and outcomes so solutions are repeatable beyond the internship; write clear documentation capturing the idea, logic, and intended approach for each solution to enable handoff and continuity
  • Present findings and ROI framing to operational and executive leadership
  • Help build and deliver an AI Efficiency Playbook at the close of the internship – capturing what was built, what it replaced, recommended next steps, and a framework for how Point C can continue identifying and implementing AI-driven improvements
Desired Qualifications
  • Experience with prompt engineering, APIs, or workflow automation tools (Make, Zapier, Power Automate)
  • Familiarity with Python, JavaScript, or C#/.NET
  • Prior exposure to healthcare, TPAs, or regulated operational environments
