Make an Impact with AI/ML Engineering
Bring your curiosity, engineering skills, and bold ideas to Evernorth Health Services, a division of The Cigna Group. This internship is a foundational development opportunity for emerging AI/ML engineers ready to build scalable solutions for meaningful health care challenges. You will contribute to strategically important work, learn alongside ambitious and compassionate experts, and explore how modern AI, data, cloud, and software engineering can improve health outcomes and business decisions.
This is more than a summer project. Solutions developed by our teams have evolved into enterprise capabilities supporting critical business functions, and several projects have contributed to innovative intellectual property and patent filings. You will gain exposure to the full AI lifecycle while building relationships through professional development, networking, and collaboration with experienced engineers, data scientists, architects, and business stakeholders.
Past projects have included Spark and Databricks feature-engineering platforms; AI/ML experimentation frameworks; MLOps and deployment automation; agentic and generative AI applications; enterprise chatbots; retrieval-augmented generation and document intelligence platforms; and real-time prediction services.
Location: This internship follows a hybrid schedule with three days per week in the Austin, TX; Morris Plains, NJ; or St. Louis, MO office.
Compensation: Hourly pay ranges from $35.00-$43.00, based on degree program and year of study.
Schedule: This is a full-time, 12-week summer internship working 40 hours per week beginning in May 2027.
