About the Internship – Metadata Intelligence: Theory + Prototype
This 6‑month final‑year internship offers a rare opportunity to work on state-of-the-art metadata enrichment, semantic search, embeddings, and RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) inside Amgen’s production ecosystem.
You will translate academic techniques into practical, reproducible prototypes using Amgen’s high-quality datasets and collaborate closely with analytics teams, engineers, and domain SMEs.
This assignment is ideal for students wanting to bridge academic research with industry‑ready implementation.
Your Assignment
Over six months, you will design and deliver a full metadata intelligence workflow:
1. Research & Theory
Conduct a literature review on modern metadata enrichment, semantic search, and RAG workflows
Compare rule-based, Transformer/LLM‑based, and hybrid extractors + retrievers
Build hypotheses and design evaluation frameworks
2. Prototype Development
Implement baseline extractors
Build LLM prompt pipelines, embedding-based retrievers, and hybrid workflows
Integrate a RAG‑enabled helper tool/playbook
Develop a metadata extractor + embedding + retrieval pipeline using Amgen datasets
3. Dynamic Data-Maturity & Health Reporting
Build an interactive dashboard showing catalog completeness, data quality, pipeline freshness, KPI health
Demonstrate how improved metadata + IR methods drive measurable productivity gains
4. Final Deliverables
Annotated literature review
Reproducible prototype code
Evaluation suite with metrics & recommendations
Integrated RAG demo
Interactive data-maturity dashboard
Handoff documentation + final stakeholder presentation
What You Will Learn
This internship provides hands-on experience in:
End‑to‑end ML/NLP research and prototyping
RAG workflows, embeddings, and metadata extraction
Information retrieval evaluation (intrinsic + task-based metrics)
Production‑grade reproducibility and experimentation
Stakeholder interaction within a regulated, high-impact data environment
Presenting advanced technical concepts to non-technical audiences
You will finish with portfolio‑quality code, reports, dashboards, and demos.
