In this 6-month internship starting in Spring 2027, you'll use agentic AI to uncover hidden business rules in legacy .NET/VB6 code.

Your tasks

• Research and compare agentic AI approaches that combine LLM-driven agents with static and program analysis to mine business rules from legacy code.
• Select the most promising approach and AI engines, including options beyond LLMs.
• Design and build a prototype agent that navigates a representative legacy .NET/VB6 codebase on its own and cross-references related modules.
• Extract and document business rules, turning knowledge that only lives in the code into a clear specification that experts can review.
• Add mechanisms that flag uncertain findings for expert review.
• Validate your results with domain experts and use their feedback to improve the agent.
• Propose a repeatable methodology and best practices for using agentic knowledge mining before modernization, replacement or retirement decisions.
• Lay the groundwork for a scalable Legacy Modernization Assessment offering for clients across the market.

What we offer

• A dynamic, collaborative workplace with a highly motivated, multicultural team working across international sites
• Monthly AI meetups with our expert AI team, where you can ask questions and move your topic forward
• The chance to make a difference in people's lives by building innovative solutions
