About Resolute Solutions 

Resolute Solutions is a Houston-headquartered Defense IT contractor delivering intelligent automation, SAP modernization, and AI/ML solutions to U.S. military and federal agency customers. We hold triple small business certifications — 8(a), SDVOSB, and HUBZone — and an active Secret facility clearance. Our work supports mission-critical systems at the Defense Logistics Agency, the U.S. Navy, and other Department of Defense organizations. 

We don't waste time, talent, or resources. We're growing the next generation of practitioner-engineers — people who can build production-grade automation and AI systems for federal missions — and this internship is the front door to that team. 

Program Overview 

The AI & Automation Internship is a structured, paid program designed to give you real engineering experience on real defense automation projects — not busywork, not shadowing. You'll join a small cohort of fellow Houston-area computer science seniors and progress through three phases: 

• Phase 1 — Foundation: Earn your UiPath Developer Associate certification, learn our AI engineering stack and agentic workflows, and get embedded in our delivery practices. 
• Phase 2 — Sandbox Projects: Join 2–3 person teams on real Resolute problem domains — government contracting workflow automations, internal AI tools, federal client deliverables. 
• Phase 3 — Innovation Challenge: Compete in a final build event. Present your work to Resolute leadership. Top performers receive full-time offers and signing bonuses. 

Program length runs 10–24 weeks depending on your academic schedule and the cohort window you join. 

What You'll Do 

• Build UiPath automations against defined business processes, with code review and mentorship from senior engineers. 
• Develop AI-powered features and agents using modern frameworks and AI coding tools. 
• Contribute to internal product builds, including our Vector business development tool and ROS internal AI platform. 
• Document your work clearly — we expect engineers, not coders, and clear writing is part of the job. 
• Participate in async daily check-ins and weekly team syncs — most coordination happens through our orchestration layer, not meetings. 

Required Qualifications 

• Senior-year undergraduate in Computer Science, Information Technology, Computer Engineering, or a closely related technical field, graduating Summer or Fall 2026 
• U.S. Citizen — no dual citizenship — and eligible to obtain a Secret-level security clearance 
• Primary residence in a HUBZone-designated address in the Greater Houston area (verify at maps.certify.sba.gov) 
• Strong programming fundamentals — comfortable in at least one modern language (Python, Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, C#, etc.) 
• Working knowledge of Git, command-line basics, and standard developer tooling 
• Clear written and verbal communication — you can explain what you built and why 
• Technically curious, self-directed, and an independent problem solver — you can move a task from "assigned" to "shipped" without constant oversight 
• Available to work 10 hours per week consistently and attend periodic in-person collaboration days at our Houston office 

Preferred Qualifications 

• Prior exposure to RPA platforms (UiPath, Automation Anywhere, Power Automate) or AI/ML coursework 
• Experience with LLM APIs, prompt engineering, or AI-assisted development tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot) 
• Internship, capstone, hackathon, or open-source experience that demonstrates shipped work 
• Interest in defense mission work, national security, or government modernization 

What You'll Gain 

• UiPath Developer Associate certification (Resolute pays the exam fee at full-time conversion) 
• Production AI engineering experience that most mid-career engineers haven't reached 
• A portfolio of real automations and AI features deployed against real customers 
• Mentorship from senior practitioners who actively deliver on federal contracts 
• A direct path to a full-time offer with signing bonus — no second interview loop required 

This Role Is / Is Not 

• Is a working engineering role with real customer-facing impact from week one 
• Is a deliberate investment in your training — we pay for certifications and we mean it 
• Is a real path to a full-time offer based on demonstrated performance, not interview chemistry 
• Is Not a coffee-and-shadowing internship or a credential-padding exercise 
• Is Not a tier-1 helpdesk or general IT support role
