FocusKPI is an AI/ML consulting team helping companies design and build custom AI agent solutions. We're looking for a full-time Business Operations Intern to jump into the work — running outreach campaigns, following up with leads, and keeping our client relationships strong.
No heavy experience required. What matters is that you're curious, fast-moving, and genuinely excited about AI.
You'll be doing real work — writing real emails, running real campaigns, and talking to real clients. If you want to learn what it feels like to work inside an AI-focused startup and actually contribute from day one — this is for you.
What You'll Actually Do- Run email outreach campaigns — sequences, follow-ups, and responses to prospects
- Create and schedule content for LinkedIn and other channels (posts, newsletters, updates)
- Own all follow-ups — no lead goes cold, no client feels ignored
- Maintain client relationship touchpoints — check-ins, recaps, status updates
- Use AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, or whatever works) to speed up copy, research, and workflows
- You actually use AI in your daily work — real shortcuts that save you real time
- You have a basic understanding of AI agents — you don't need to build them, but you should know what they are and how they're being used
- You launch, see what's working, and adjust fast — you don't overthink before taking action
- Organized and proactive — you follow up without being told
- Clear communicator in English
- College student or recent grad — hunger and curiosity matter more than credentials or years of experience
- Paid internship experience (full-time)
- Real exposure to AI consulting projects and live client work
- Front-row seat to how AI agents are actually being built and deployed across industries
- Direct mentorship from a fast-moving team
Please include your answers to both questions in your application:
1. Your outreach sequence gets zero replies after 2 weeks. Walk us through exactly what you do.
2. We build AI agents for clients — so tell us what you actually think about them. What's one thing AI agents are genuinely good at, and one place where they still fall short? Give us a real example for each — something you personally saw or tried, not something you read about.
