About Runnr.ai

Runnr.ai is a fast-growing startup revolutionizing guest communication for hotels and holiday parks with AI-powered solutions. Our mission is to streamline guest experiences and empower businesses with cutting-edge automation. Join us to shape the future of hospitality tech!

The Opportunity

We are looking for a motivated AI Research Intern to join our team for a 6-month journey (32-40 hours per week). In this role, you won't just be watching from the sidelines - you'll dive deep into Computer Use Agent technology, researching whether AI agents can navigate PMS platforms directly through their UI to perform tasks like booking upsells, without relying on complex integrations.

What You'll Do

Research: Investigate existing Computer Use Agent tools and frameworks that can interact with web UIs (e.g., login to platforms, execute complex actions, adapt to changes in the UI, adjust the interaction flow).
Develop: Build a Proof of Concept demonstrating a Computer Use Agent performing complex actions in one of our PMS providers' UI (e.g. processing an upsell request).
Collaborate: Work closely with our team to align your findings with our goal of faster PMS integrations and seamless upsell capabilities.

Who You Are

A student or recent graduate in Computer Science, AI, Data Science, or a related field (BSc or MSc level).
Basic programming experience (e.g., Python, or similar). Familiarity with AI/ML frameworks or web automation tools is a plus.
Curious and self-motivated, with a passion for solving technical challenges and exploring innovative solutions.
Comfortable working independently while collaborating with a small, dynamic team.
Strong communication skills to document and present findings clearly.
Bonus: Interest in hospitality tech or experience with Computer Use Agents / AI chatbots.

Why Join Runnr.ai?

Impactful Work: Contribute to a real-world solution that enhances guest experiences and streamlines operations for hotels and holiday parks.
Hands-On Experience: Gain practical experience in AI research and application, working on a cutting-edge problem in a fast-paced startup environment.
