Key is that your thesis will research challenges or opportunities we see at our clients and that new AI-driven business solutions or opportunities can be defined based on the input of our experts. Depending on the assignment, you may prototype and deploy working AI solutions from data pipelines and model experiments to proof-of-concept applications. During your internship you'll connect with many SC&E colleagues from Accenture and gain valuable insight into the world of strategy & consulting. Your work location is at the main office in Amsterdam, where you will be required to be present at least 3 days a week.

  • Improving engineering and business processes: Analyzing current ways of working and redesigning product development processes through workshops, interviews, and practical improvements — including where generative AI and automation can accelerate them.
  • Implementing AI solutions: Supporting the rollout of technologies such as Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) platforms and AI-enabled solutions like RAG systems, LLM orchestration, and computer vision.
  • Driving sustainability initiatives: Setting up frameworks, processes, and data-driven insights that help companies reach their sustainability goals.

  • Data Science & AI: Familiarity with at least one ML framework (PyTorch, TensorFlow, or Keras) and a good understanding of Deep Learning (Computer Vision) and Generative AI concepts (RAG, LLM orchestration). A grasp of deploying AI logic to edge environments is a plus.
  • You are fluent in English (verbal and written); Dutch is a strong asset.
