Job Summary Position Intern, Founders Office. Team Founders Office, APLYD. Level and grade Intern. Position type Full time internship, 3 months. Location Delhi, India. Reports to Nakul Jain, Co-Founder and CEO. Travel Occasional, as needed.

The Role

You will work directly with APLYDs founders on the priorities that shape a young company: new business, partnerships, internal operations and how we tell our story. It is a generalist role. One week you may be building a proposal for a state government; the next you may be setting up a tracker for leadership reviews or researching how other countries regulate public-sector AI.

This role suits someone who wants a close view of how an applied-AI company is built, and who is comfortable with ambiguity, short deadlines and changing priorities.

Core Job Responsibilities

- Business development. Research opportunities, prospective clients and funders, and support proposals, concept notes and pitch decks.
- Research and insight. Produce short briefs on AI in government: policy, regulation, use cases and the competitive landscape.
- Founder support. Prepare documents and decks for leadership, client and partner meetings, capture notes and track follow-ups to closure.
- Strategic projects. Own one or two internal projects end to end, such as a pipeline dashboard, a case-study library or an offering playbook.
- Operations and coordination. Keep priority trackers current and coordinate across APLYD teams and Athena functions such as finance, HR and communications.
- Communications. Help draft case studies, website content, LinkedIn posts and event material with the Communications team.
- Execution and coordination: Maintain action trackers, follow up with teams,



and flag delays or dependencies to keep priority initiatives moving.
- Process development: Help document and improve internal processes across areas such as business development, hiring, finance, and operations.
- Any other tasks of similar nature, as assigned by the Founder.

Qualifications and Competencies

- A final-year student or recent graduate (within two years) of a Masters or Bachelors programme in public policy, economics, development studies, management, engineering or a related field.
- Clear, structured writing, and the ability to turn messy information into a crisp one-pager or deck.
- Strong research and analytical skills, and comfort with Excel or Google Sheets.
- A real interest in AI, technology and public systems. You follow the space and have views on it.
- Ownership. You follow through without reminders and flag problems early.
- Discretion with sensitive leadership and client information.
- Based in Delhi NCR.

Also useful, though we will not screen on it

- A prior internship or work in consulting, a startup, a government programme or a development organisation.
- Basic data skills (Python, SQL or a BI tool) or design skills (Canva, Figma).
- Working knowledge of an Indian language besides English.

Additional Requirements
