About Valency

Valency Systems is a small, dynamic team of engineers, scientists, and researchers building the global hub for the agentic research era.

We're based in Berkeley, California, and we're building something that matters. If you care about open science, advancing research at the speed of thought, and using AI to accelerate discovery, we'd love to talk.

We're based in the Bay Area. As an intern, you'll be fully in-office 5 days a week over the summer — a great way to immerse yourself in the team and get the most out of your experience.

The Position

We're hiring one intern to help us tell our story and connect with our community.

What you'll do:

• Run our social presence: Create and publish posts that show what we're building and why it matters. Keep our voice consistent and our audience engaged.

• Amplify user and customer stories: Find the people doing interesting work with our tools. Turn their wins into content that resonates.

• Help build our podcast: Plan episodes, coordinate guests—technologists, developers, scientists, our founders, our engineering and science teams—and keep the series moving.

• Coordinate the blog: Work with the team to schedule and publish posts. Keep the editorial calendar moving.

• Prepare press materials: Build and maintain press packets. Help us be ready when journalists come calling.

• Engage the community: Respond to comments, join conversations, route questions to the right teams. Be our front door.

• Support events: Help coordinate our presence at conferences, demos, and community meetups.

You'll work directly with founders and senior team members. You'll shape how the world sees Valency.
