Think Together is a nonprofit organization dedicated to changing the odds for kids through expanded education programs, like afterschool programs, early learning, student services and school improvement.

Interns will be placed with a department in Think Together’s Home Office based on their academic background, professional skills, interests, and goals. Under the mentorship of designated staff members, interns will work both independently and collaboratively with their departments on projects that support Think Together’s mission and operations. Interns will gain a broad understanding of how a particular department functions within the context of a large nonprofit organization and will develop skills and knowledge related to their academic and professional goals. Interns will also have opportunities to attend regular staff speaker series and professional development sessions.

The Think Digital Intern will work across Strategy & Operations, Product, Design and Engineering with the Impact Portfolio team. Interns will support the development of AI-enabled products and internal workflows, with a focus on helping teams move from ideas to testable outputs more quickly. 

This is not a traditional support role. Interns will be expected to contribute to real workstreams, experiment with new tools, and help improve how the team operates. 

 Interns will work both independently and collaboratively, with opportunities to contribute based on their strengths across research, design, and strategy. 

Description of Tasks 

Interns will operate individually and as a small, cross-functional group working across product, design, and strategy. Each intern will lean into different strengths, but will collaborate closely to turn ideas into testable outputs, translate insights into product direction, and improve how the team uses AI to move faster. Responsibilities may evolve based on team priorities and individual strengths
