Why does this job exist and why is it critical?
Maxis is scaling GenAI-powered customer experiences to deliver faster, simpler and more consistent support across our key engagement touchpoints. This internship exists to accelerate the development and continuous improvement of two critical capabilities:
Virtual Agent: Supports customers before they reach a live agent by resolving common enquiries, guiding journeys and routing customers correctly, reducing customer effort and improving speed to resolution.
Agent Assist: Supports live agents during interactions by surfacing relevant knowledge, suggested responses, summaries and next-best actions—improving accuracy, consistency and first-time resolution.
As a Customer Experience Virtual Agent and Agent Assist Intern, you will contribute across the full GenAI lifecycle (ideation, discovery, delivery, measurement and optimisation). Your work will help Maxis drive meaningful outcomes—higher digital adoption and resolution, improved agent productivity, and stronger customer satisfaction—while ensuring experiences remain user-centric, reliable and aligned to business priorities.
Key Responsibilities
Support end-to-end delivery across the GenAI lifecycle (ideation, discovery, build, testing, rollout and optimisation) for Virtual Agent and Agent Assist initiatives.
Collaborate cross-functionally with CX operations, product, design, engineering, data/AI, QA, knowledge/content and business teams to deliver seamless experiences across channels and touchpoints.
Translate business priorities into actionable requirements by documenting use cases, customer/agent journeys, functional needs, and acceptance criteria; support alignment across stakeholders.
Improve Virtual Agent (pre-agent) experiences by helping refine conversation flows, prompts, fallbacks, escalation/handovers and routing to increase resolution/containment and reduce customer effort.
Enhance Agent Assist (during live interactions) by helping validate and improve GenAI outputs such as suggested answers, knowledge retrieval, summaries, next-best actions and disposition support for faster, more accurate resolutions.
Analyse customer and agent signals (conversation logs, contact drivers, transfer reasons, agent feedback) to identify pain points, automation opportunities and priority fixes with clear impact rationale.
Support training data and knowledge quality by curating/tagging utterances, intents, entities and content; flag gaps, inaccuracies and edge cases to improve coverage and answer quality.
Execute QA and release readiness activities including test planning, regression testing, UAT support, and defect logging with clear evidence, severity and reproduction steps.
Track and communicate performance insights by monitoring KPIs (e.g., containment/resolution, transfer rate, answer quality, agent adoption, time saved, CSAT) and sharing weekly recommendations.
Maintain documentation and operational artefacts such as journey maps, intent catalogues, test scripts, known issues logs, release notes and playbooks to support consistent delivery and scaling.
Support responsible AI and governance by following data privacy, security and compliance requirements, and flagging risks such as hallucinations, unsafe responses, bias, or policy misalignment.
Drive continuous improvement by proposing experiments (e.g., prompt variants), measuring outcomes, and supporting iterative tuning to improve customer and agent experience.
Value-Added Project
The intern will be immersed in a holistic learning experience, gaining end-to-end exposure to how the GenAI value chain operates in a real customer experience environment. This includes how ideas are converted into Virtual Agent (pre-agent) and Agent Assist (in-agent) use cases, how cross-functional teams collaborate to design, build and govern solutions, and how data-driven decisions are made to improve customer outcomes and operational performance.
Preferred Skills / Qualifications
Strong problem-solving and analytical skills; able to turn data and observations into clear insights and actions.
Good project management and organisational abilities; comfortable tracking tasks, risks, dependencies and deadlines.
Effective written and verbal communication skills; able to document requirements, write clear summaries, and work with diverse stakeholders.
Strong time management with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deliver consistently.
Proactive, curious and eager to learn in a fast-paced digital environment; takes ownership and follows through.
Added Advantage
Basic understanding of GenAI, chatbots/voicebots, or digital customer journeys.
Comfortable with data tools (Excel/Google Sheets; SQL/Power BI/Tableau is a plus).
Experience with documentation/ticketing tools (e.g., Confluence, Jira) or structured testing/QA practices.
