Responsibilities

We’re looking for a motivated intern to join our integration and AI engineering team. You’ll design, build, and test MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers on the Workato platform, enabling AI assistants and agents to securely interact with enterprise systems such as CRMs, ticketing tools, HR platforms, and data warehouses. This is a hands-on role where you’ll ship real, working assets and learn how enterprise-grade agentic AI is built.

In this role, you will also be responsible to:

Build and configure MCP servers in Workato, exposing business capabilities as tools that AI clients (such as Claude) can call

Develop Workato recipes and skills that back each MCP tool, using connectors for systems like Salesforce, Slack, Jira, Google Workspace, and others

Write clear tool names, descriptions, and input/output schemas so AI models can select and use tools accurately

Test MCP servers end to end with AI clients, and iterate based on tool-selection accuracy, error rates, and response quality

Implement error handling, input validation, and logging to make tools reliable and debuggable

Apply security best practices, including least-privilege access, authentication, and handling of sensitive data

Use Workato data tables, lookup tables, and connections appropriately to manage state and credentials

Document each MCP server (purpose, tools, authentication, example prompts, known limitations)

Participate in code and recipe reviews, team standups, and demos

Complete a capstone project: design and deliver a production-ready MCP server for a real internal use case, and present it to the team

Required Qualifications

Currently pursuing or completed a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related field

Working knowledge of at least one programming or scripting language (Python, JavaScript, or Ruby preferred)

Understanding of REST APIs, JSON, and basic HTTP concepts

Familiarity with core integration concepts: triggers, actions, data mapping, webhooks, and error handling

Basic understanding of LLMs and AI assistants, and curiosity about how they use tools

Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail

Clear written communication, especially for documentation

Ability to learn quickly and work independently with guidance

Preferred Qualifications

Prior exposure to Workato or another iPaaS or automation tool

Awareness of the Model Context Protocol specification and its core concepts (tools, resources, prompts)
