Here's a unique intern opportunity where you can dive into cutting-edge AI research within Azure CI/CD pipelines. You'll get hands-on experience comparing different environments for an AI agent that diagnoses build failures, focusing on practical metrics like speed, cost, and security, all without needing a formal degree.
Job description
High Level Description
This thesis project investigates where AI agents should run inside Azure CI/CD pipelines. The study compares execution environments for an agent that diagnoses failed builds, focusing on startup time, cost per task, and resistance to prompt-injection attacks, without compromising the quality of the diagnoses.

Who are we looking for?
Bachelor/Master of Science student in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Data Science or related fields.
Graduation in June 2027
Fluency in Swedish, both written and spoken
Fluency in English, both written and spoken
The candidate should be comfortable with Git, basic CI/CD concepts, Python (or a similar scripting language) and containers. No prior Azure experience is required.
Purpose
CI/CD pipelines produce large volumes of unstructured logs, and diagnosing failed builds costs developers time. AI agents can suggest a root cause, but they read untrusted text and may call tools, so a manipulated agent can leak secrets or act beyond its remit. Where the agent runs therefore matters for cost, speed and security.
The candidate will build one simple failure-triage agent and run it unchanged in several Azure environments: the pipeline agent (baseline), a standard container on Azure Container Apps, Container Apps Sandboxes, and optionally a Foundry Hosted Agent. It will process logs from failed open-source CI runs and face a suite of prompt-injection attacks in a dedicated test subscription.
The supervisor provides Azure budget and model API access, and no company data is used.
