Tresata Fellows for Project NANDA: Developer Fellowship Program
🚀 Shape the Future: Build the Data Intelligence Backbone for the Internet of AI Agents.
Tresata is seeking 5 exceptional developers to join our inaugural fellowship program advancing the pioneering open source mission of MIT’s Project NANDA (Networked Agents and Decentralized AI). This is a unique opportunity to shape the foundational infrastructure for a true “Internet of AI Agents” while advancing your own cutting-edge projects.
About the Fellowship
- Duration: 3 months
- Compensation: $15,000 stipend per fellow
- Cohort Size: 5 developers
- Structure: Self-directed research with collaborative elements
The Mission
Project NANDA is building critical infrastructure needed for billions of specialized AI agents to collaborate across decentralized networks. Just as the early web required DNS and HTTP protocols to scale, NANDA creates the essential building blocks for autonomous AI agents that can discover, verify, and collaborate in real-time.
Tresata AI will help build the Internet of AI Agents by unifying and linking massive datasets through unique Tresata IDs, enabling agents to access accurate, trusted information instantly. As part of Project NANDA, it supports decentralized, privacy-respecting ecosystems where trillions of AI agents can operate collaboratively and autonomously.
What You’ll Do
As a Tresata Fellow, you will:
- Pioneer Infrastructure: Contribute to developing foundational protocols for the Internet of AI Agents, leveraging Tresata’s capabilities in large-scale data integration and entity resolution
- Build Your Vision: Pursue self-directed projects aligned with NANDA’s open-source mission and Tresata’s expertise in actionable customer intelligence and data interoperability
- Collaborate with Leaders: Work alongside an open-source community and researchers including MIT Media Lab’s Project NANDA team, Tresata engineers, and fellow developers
- Shape Standards: Participate in developing specifications and guidelines for decentralized AI
- Access Cutting-Edge Tech: Engage with protocols like Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP), Google’s Agent-to-Agent (A2A), and Tresata’s advanced data infrastructure
