The Opportunity
Hitachi Energy is seeking a highly motivated Research Intern to contribute to the design and evaluation of explainability and governance-aligned reporting frameworks for machine learning models used in power grid applications. The hired intern will work under the supervision of Research Scientist(s) in the Hitachi Energy Research center. This position will be held in a hybrid-format or remotely within Canada.
Duration of internship: 4 months (can be extended up to 6 months as per need)
Start date: April 6, 2026 (flexible)
Mode of work: Remote or Hybrid (flexible)
Renumerated Internship
How you’ll make an impact
Conduct literature reviews and comparative evaluations on ML explainability and trust-building techniques.
Investigate frameworks for model transparency, reproducibility, and traceability.
Explore and evaluate explainability methods (e.g., SHAP, LIME, surrogate models) and their applicability to industrial ML workflows.
Prototype research concepts using Python and modern ML tooling.
Document findings and present them in technical reports or publications, as appropriate.
Your background
PhD students/candidates in Computer Science/Engineering, Machine Learning, Software/Electrical Engineering.
Excellent senior master’s (thesis-based) students with relevant experience are also welcome to apply.
Solid understanding of machine learning & software engineering concepts, model evaluation, validation pipeline and CI/CD is required.
Familiarity with interpretability techniques and/or model governance topics (e.g., explainability, reproducibility, fairness).
Proficiency in Python and experience with ML libraries (e.g., Scikit-learn, TensorFlow/PyTorch, SHAP, LIME).
Research experience involving defining problems, exploring potential solutions, and analyzing results, with the ability to clearly present findings to key stakeholders.
Good communication skills (both written and spoken).
Preferred qualification
If you have any of the following qualifications, please ensure to clearly mention them in your resume.
Prior experience working with interpretability or explainability libraries.
Familiarity with AI governance frameworks (e.g., EU AI Act, AI Verify, NIST AI RMF).
One or more first-authored publications in top AI/ML conference/journals.
Ability to do critical and innovative thinking. Ability to take lead in realizing ideas.
Experience with model-driven software engineering.
Only selected applicants will be contacted.
