About the role
- Headquartered and incorporated in Los Angeles, California, Xsolla operates as the merchant of record and has helped over 1,500+ game developers to reach more players and grow their businesses around the world.
- With more paths to profits and ways to win, developers have all the things needed to enjoy the game.
- Why This Role Exists Xsolla is going all-in on becoming an AI-first company, and we're not waiting for a slow rollout to get there.
Responsibilities
- Partner and collaborate with senior engineers to identify where AI tooling and integrations can remove friction, and build the fix.
- Build applications and integrations on top of Xsolla's APIs and SDKs that show internal teams how to move faster using AI-assisted development.
- Ship work that matters. What you build is expected to reach real users - whether that's an internal tool an engineering team adopts or a customer-facing integration - not a throwaway exercise that gets shelved after your internship ends.
- Share what you build. We run weekly 30-second lightning-talk demos where everyone shows how they used AI to solve something that week - you'll be expected to bring something real.
- Work with minimal process. You'll get context, a problem, and a mentor - the rest is on you to figure out and build.
- Learn from and collaborate with both directions: senior engineers who'll mentor you on production-grade practices, and fellow interns across markets you'll trade ideas and code with at the weekly demos.
- You build things because you want to, and that you already use AI to do it faster.
- You've actually used tools like Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar agentic coding tools to build something - not just asked ChatGPT to explain a concept.
- Bias toward action. Given an ambiguous problem, you start building before you ask for a spec.
- Comfort with developing modern full-stack solutions - we care more about how fast you learn than what you already know cold.
Requirements
- You have side projects, hackathon entries, open-source contributions, or something you shipped just because you were curious.
- If you're pursuing a graduate degree and don't mind taking on an internship-level role to get hands-on with AI, we want to hear from you.
- If you have questions regarding our hiring practices, please contact careers@xsolla.com.
Benefits
- We do not discriminate based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other characteristic protected by law.
