THE POSITION

As a Product Management Intern, you will join Endeavor’s Platform Team, the group responsible for building the digital infrastructure that powers our global network. Our proprietary platform, Endeavor One, has been an internal tool for staff; your core focus will be leading its evolution into a "Founder-First" digital experience.

During this internship, you will learn the end-to-end product discovery process—from conducting market benchmarking and founder interviews to scoping technical requirements for AI-driven features like Endeavor Brain. You will support the transition of our platform from a high-touch staff tool to a self-service resource where entrepreneurs can independently discover mentors and peers. Your work directly supports Endeavor’s mission by scaling our ability to provide high-impact support to founders worldwide through technology. This role reports directly to the Senior Product Manager, Platform.

HIRING TIMELINE

• Applications close: February 17, 2026 at 11:59pm EST

• Interview process: Our process consists of three rounds: (1) An initial recruiter screen, (2) a hiring manager interview focusing on product thinking and research skills, and (3) a final panel interview including a brief case study or technical walkthrough with members of our Engineering and Entrepreneur Excellence teams.

• Offer extension: By early April 2026

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Product Discovery & Market Strategy: Research and analyze world-class founder platforms and community SaaS products to identify best practices in self-service UX. This work ensures Endeavor remains a premier digital offering by benchmarking our experience against global industry standards.

• User Research & Insights: Lead interviews with Endeavor staff and Founders to identify pain points and high-value opportunities for a digital experience. These insights will directly shape the product roadmap, ensuring we build features that solve real-world problems for our entrepreneurs.

• Feature Scoping & Roadmap Development: Follow the full product lifecycle to discover, test, and scope features that allow founders to navigate our network independently. This involves translating complex founder needs into clear functional requirements that guide our Engineering and Design partners.

• AI Integration & Technical Execution: Support the transition of Endeavor Brain (our AI search tool) from a staff-only resource to a founder-facing discovery engine. You will help assess technical feasibility and oversee the rollout of initial modules to ensure high-quality alignment with the Endeavor brand.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Entrepreneur Experience (EX) teams to ensure the digital platform complements our traditional high-touch service model. This ensures a seamless experience for our founders, blending human mentorship with powerful digital tools.

SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONS

• Student Status: Currently pursuing a degree (Undergraduate or Graduate) in Business, Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field.

• Interests / Areas of Focus: Strong interest in Product Management, Entrepreneurship, Venture Capital, or UX Research. You should be passionate about how technology can scale human networks.

• Technical Literacy & Skills: Ability to understand technical architectures (APIs, databases, AI search) and translate them into user stories. Familiarity with data analysis tools and product management software (e.g., Jira, Linear, or Figma) is a plus.

• Communication & Analysis: Exceptional written and verbal skills with an "analytical-first" mindset. You should be comfortable asking "why" to get to the root of a problem and synthesized external market trends into actionable recommendations.

• Must be legally eligible to work in the U.S. We will not be able to interview or select candidates without valid U.S. work authorization for the 2026 year.
