Full Job Description
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. 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 ROLE Right now, we have almost no data infrastructure. We do not know which acquisition channels are working, where users drop off, or which features drive retention. Your job is to build the instrumentation layer that changes that. Reporting to the GTM Lead, this role is part software engineering, part product thinking, part analytics. You will not be handed a Jira board of tickets. You will be given business questions ('Are researchers who use Bond for literature review more likely to come back than those who use it for data queries?') and be expected to figure out what to build to answer them. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Instrument product and marketing touch points from the ground up (if you enjoy event tracking, funnel analytics, and attribution, then this could be a good role for you) - Build dashboards that give the team real-time visibility into acquisition, activation, and retention metrics - Design and run growth experiments; report results in a format that informs decisions, not just describes data - Use AI tooling to automate reporting, surface anomalies, and reduce the manual work of monitoring growth metrics - Build lightweight internal tools that help the GTM team move faster. Think outreach automation, scraping pipelines, lead enrichment scripts - Work with the other members of the GTM team to ensure the data infrastructure supports their work and validates their hypotheses WHO YOU ARE - You write code and think like a product person.
