Position Description

Ayar Labs, the global leader in optical I/O chiplets, is harnessing silicon photonics to revolutionize the scaling of AI compute hardware. Ayar Labs is shattering AI data bottlenecks by moving data at the speed of light. As pioneers of co-packaged optics (CPO), we are using light instead of electricity to move data faster, further, and with a fraction of the energy needed to fuel the explosive growth of AI models.

Backed by industry giants like NVIDIA, AMD and Intel and manufactured in partnership with the world’s leading semiconductor ecosystem, Ayar Labs’ co-packaged optics solution is key to unleashing next-generation AI scale-up architectures.

This internship offers hands-on ownership of real marketing initiatives at a fast-growing semiconductor company. The intern will work on a small number of defined projects spanning areas like campaign execution, content and brand programs, and marketing operations with specific scope shaped around the intern's interests and the team's priorities at the time. A core part of the role is bringing strong AI fluency to the team: the intern will be expected to actively identify and test ways AI tools can make the marketing organization more efficient, not just use them as a supplement to traditional execution.The intern will get direct, cross-functional exposure to how a technical B2B marketing team operates, working alongside marketing, communications, sales, product, and executive stakeholders, with regular one-on-one mentorship throughout the internship.

Intern Skillset Needed

• Strong writing, communications and organizational skills
• Genuine comfort and hands-on experience with AI tools for research, drafting, workflow automation, or building lightweight tools.
• Interest in B2B or technical marketing
• A self-starter mindset with the ability to take real ownership of a project, not just support tasks

Education Requirements

• Candidate should be actively pursuing a Bachelor's degree or Master’s degree in Business, Marketing, Communications or aligned area

Pay Range: $45 - 55/hourly, depending on education level
