About Ideogram
Ideogram’s mission is to make world-class design accessible to everyone, multiplying human creativity. We build proprietary generative media models and AI native creative workflows, tackling unsolved challenges in graphic design. Our team includes builders with a track record of technology breakthroughs including early research in Diffusion Models, Google’s Imagen, and Imagen Video. We care about design, taste, and craft as much as research and engineering – shipping experiences that creatives actually love.
We’ve raised nearly $100M, led by Andreessen Horowitz and Index Ventures. Headquartered in Toronto with a growing team in NYC, we're scaling fast, aiming to triple over the next year. We're a flat team with a culture of high ownership, collaboration, and mentorship.

The Opportunity
As a Machine Learning Research Intern (Summer 2026), you’ll join the small team that built Ideogram’s foundation models. You’ll push the frontier of visual generative models and ship ideas that reach millions of creators. You’ll work alongside researchers who trained our world-class text-to-image model and pushed the state of the art in image captioning, diffusion conditioning beyond text, and layout and typography.
What We’re Looking For
We’re a team of exceptionally talented, curious builders who love solving tough problems and turning bold ideas into reality. We move fast, collaborate deeply, and operate without unnecessary hierarchy, because we believe the best ideas can come from anyone.
Everyone at Ideogram rolls up their sleeves to make our products and our customers successful. We thrive on curiosity, creativity, and shared ownership. We believe that small, dedicated teams working together with trust and purpose can move faster, think bigger, and create amazing things.
Ideogram is committed to welcoming everyone — regardless of gender identity, orientation, or expression. Our mission is to create belonging and remove barriers so everyone can create boldly.
What we offer
💸Competitive compensation and equity designed to recognize the value and impact of your contributions to Ideogram’s success.
🌴 4 weeks of vacation to recharge and explore.
🩺 Comprehensive health, vision, and dental coverage starting on day one.
💰 RRSP/401(k) with employer match up to 4% to invest in your future from the moment you join.
💻 Top-of-the-line tools and tech to fuel your creativity and productivity.
📍 Toronto HQ perks: Steps from Union Station and the PATH, with team lunches every Tuesday and dinners every Thursday.
🔍 Autonomy to explore and experiment — whether you’re testing new ideas, running large-scale experiments, or diving into research, you’ll have access to compute/resources you need when there’s a clear business or creative use case. We encourage curiosity and bold thinking.
🌱 A culture of learning and growth, where curiosity is encouraged and mentorship is part of the journey.
🏡 Fully remote flexibility across North America, with regular in-person team meetups and collaboration opportunities.
