Autonomous Coding Agents
In this internship, you will integrate one or more autonomous coding agents into AutoForm’s development ecosystem. You will evaluate and set up existing agentic coding frameworks (e.g., OpenHands, SWE‑Agent, Aider), enrich them with AutoForm‑specific knowledge sources (Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket, etc.), and apply internal guidelines (architecture, GUI, and more).
The goal is to evolve from a simple, supervised terminal‑based coding agent to a fully autonomous team of agents capable of receiving a Jira ticket, implementing the necessary changes, and producing a pull request ready for review. This internship explores how far autonomous programming can be advanced within AutoForm.
Your tasks
- Research suitable tools and frameworks for autonomous coding
- Integrate AutoForm‑specific data sources (local LLM, repositories, tickets, …)
- Demonstrate capabilities via command‑line prototypes
- Design microservices/workflows that convert a task description into a complete pull request
- Evaluate system capabilities and develop guidelines and recommendations for practical use cases
Your profile
- Bachelor’s degree (or currently pursuing one) in computer science, data science, or engineering
- Strong Python skills and solid knowledge of shell/bash
- Understanding of agentic coding concepts
- Familiarity with skills and MCP servers
- Experience with Argo Workflows, Jenkins, or OpenShift Pipelines
- Basic knowledge of web or app development
- Strong technical interest, willingness to get involved in complex technical issues
- Team Player with a strong commitment to problem solving
- Good knowledge of English required. German would be a plus
Our offer
- A challenging role in a respectful and global working environment
- Being part of a world-leading, high-end CAE software company
- Working on cutting edge technologies for the automotive industry
- Professional development and continuous education
