Product Management Intern

As a Product Management Intern with Seminaries & Institutes, you'll work side by side with an experienced Product Manager and the S&I analytics team to solve real product problems for the analytics tools that guide religious education worldwide.

S&I serves youth and young adults around the world through seminary and institute classes. Leaders and field personnel rely on our Power BI products to understand enrollment, attendance, and student outcomes, and to decide where to focus their efforts. Our portfolio includes the Executive Dashboard, Program Dashboard, CES Dashboard, Succeed in School, the Data Leader Initiative, and What's Next for Seniors.

This is not shadowing or busywork. You'll own real responsibilities from day one and lead a meaningful project end to end: talking with users, defining success metrics, writing requirements, testing, and launching improvements that change how leaders use data to bless students. You'll learn modern product management practices, including how to put AI to work, in a mission-driven environment.

How you'll spend your time

Your work falls into three areas, so you get both the predictability of daily ownership and the growth of a project that's yours.

- Responsibilities you own. Recurring work that is yours every day, such as answering field support requests, tracking feedback and enhancement requests, and keeping FAQs and user guides current.
- Ad hoc requests. Varied assignments that come up as the products grow: building a quick prototype, working with a user through an issue, writing a help article, or preparing a demo.
- An end-to-end project. A project you own from discovery to launch, with guidance at every step. Example projects: Design and launch a training and onboarding program for a new dashboard.
- Build an adoption report that shows who uses our products and where engagement lags, then recommend improvements.
- Prototype an AI-assisted support tool that answers common field questions about reports and metrics.

You'll finish with tangible, finished work to show on your resume and in interviews.
