About the role
LEC AI is the AI division of London Export Corporation, a private group founded in 1951 (the first British trade with China, 1952), also home to LEC Robotics and LEC Beverages. We're hiring five paid AI Engineering Interns to work alongside our senior engineers on production AI systems with real commercial deployment from day one, not toy projects or isolated experiments.
What you'll work on
- Donnie — our agentic AI platform: an executive cognitive digital twin with persistent organisational memory, LLMs, and multi-agent orchestration
- Bishop — our foundation model for structured operational data, powering a live SaaS platform with commercial deployment already underway
- New venture builds — AI foundations for new companies launching across the group, from blank page to production in weeks
- AI across existing businesses — digital twins and intelligent automation for our robotics and drinks distribution operations
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You'll move between the highest-priority initiatives rather than sit on a single project for three months.
