About the role

Progress Rail, A Caterpillar Company, seeks an AI Intern on the ART team in La Grange, IL to design and prototype AI strategies for rail logistics. You will build integrations that let LLMs reason over data, call tools, and generate auditable outputs for planners and operators. You'll collaborate with product, R&D, and data engineering to deliver experiments and pilot features that improve network velocity, asset utilization, and safety in an industrial setting.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
