Subject Matter Expert (SME) – AI/ML – Internship (WFH & Part Time)
House Of Couton Private Limited has advertised a Subject Matter Expert (SME) – AI/ML internship with ten openings. It is marked part-time and work from home, with a three-month duration and an advertised ₹12,000–35,000 monthly stipend. Applications close on 23 November 2026.
Applicants should read the role carefully: the employer explicitly says a large portion of the work involves report and academic-paper preparation. This should not be confused with a purely software-building or model-deployment internship.

What the assignment involves
The intern will review and analyse research papers, check their quality and suggest improvements. Coding and research in AI/ML are also listed, along with defining and refining project scope so that it is clear and feasible. Report writing and code preparation, including co-authoring where required, form part of the stated duties.
Because writing is a substantial part of the assignment, interest in AI alone is not the whole fit. Candidates should be comfortable explaining technical material, checking the reasoning in research work and revising written output. The public listing does not identify a particular journal, research dataset, client or guaranteed publication outcome.
Skills and eligibility
The listed skills include Python, data structures, data science, machine learning, deep learning, neural networks, natural-language processing and artificial intelligence. Additional requirements say candidates should be good at writing reports and academic papers. People with at least two published papers are preferred; this is not stated as a universal mandatory threshold in the visible employer text.
The complete visible eligibility asks for relevant skills and interests, availability for remote work and a three-month commitment. Applicants must be able to start between 24 October and 28 November 2026. Women starting or restarting their careers are also invited. No compulsory degree stream is specified in the visible eligibility section.
Stipend and working arrangement
The page advertises ₹12,000–35,000 per month without a separate fixed/incentive breakdown. It would be inaccurate to promise every selected intern the maximum or invent a payout formula. Ask how the offer is decided, when payments are made and whether any conditions apply.
The internship is explicitly part-time and remote, but exact daily hours and output quotas are not disclosed. A certificate and letter of recommendation are listed as perks; their detailed award conditions are not stated. Confirm working hours, review arrangements and the expected balance of coding versus research writing before accepting.
Employer context and responsible application preparation
The employer profile describes House of Couton as running Feba, a proximity-marketing platform for retailers. The profile is based in Lucknow, while this particular opening is advertised as work from home. The AI/ML research-writing assignment should be judged on its own stated responsibilities rather than on assumptions about the employer's broader product.
If sharing a paper, report or code sample, explain your contribution and only share material you are entitled to disclose. Ask how authorship, attribution, research integrity and ownership of work are handled. These are sensible questions raised by the advertised co-authoring and academic-writing duties, not an allegation about the employer or an additional qualification. Do not assume that this internship guarantees publication, academic credit or a permanent job.
