Job Description
Job Description The Washington Post is seeking two interns passionate about product management to join our Monetization product team! Interns would have an opportunity to work on our Subscriptions and Advertising product portfolios. The experience would include supporting projects throughout the software development lifecycle, and working directly with other product managers, product designers, business partners, researchers, and engineers to ensure we are solving the right problems to drive growth at The Washington Post. Interns would gain experience writing product requirements documents (PRDs), maintaining roadmaps, negotiating priorities, analyzing data, participating in QA testing, and product launches.
How would you use technology to help The Washington Post in its mission to inform and connect with communities worldwide? Our engineering department is looking for curious and creative interns to work with us on various teams.
Interns are paid hourly and are expected to work between 35 and 40 hours per week.
Our internship program is based out of our D.C. office, so you are expected to be onsite for the summer and follow The Washington Post's in-person work policy. We do not provide housing but can suggest options upon request. You must be enrolled in a degree-seeking program at the time of submitting this application. We encourage you to apply if you are currently a student, regardless of your background or experience with engineering and/or journalism.
Foreign nationals can apply for internships. All work samples must be submitted in English. If selected, the necessary documentation for evidence of U.S. work authorization must be provided. The Post is unable to provide visa sponsorship for internships. If you have any questions, please reach out to life@washpost.com
We will review all applications and invite a subset of applicants to the next process, which includes live coding and interviews with team leads.
Our program provides a meaningful learning experience for Interns who support The Washington Post's mission. Our interns work directly with our full-time engineers on real production features.
Additionally, you'll be invited to exclusive events like our annual intern hackathon and lunch seminars from leaders across the company.
This internship is not a guarantee of a job at The Post. We have hired from our internship classes in the past, and we hope to continue this trend in the coming years. Note our internship program is not a binding contract - you can take a full-time job elsewhere or from your (or another!) team at The Post before the internship ends.
The Post strives to provide its readers with high-quality, trustworthy news and information while constantly innovating. That mission is best served by a diverse, multi-generational workforce with varied life experiences and perspectives. All cultures and backgrounds are welcomed. The innovation doesn't end in the Newsroom - dozens of teams power
The Washington Post . We are now hiring the next innovator - how will you
Impact Tomorrow ?
