Position Description

We are looking for an enthusiastic Information Technology Intern to join our IT team for a 6-month internship in our Washington, DC headquarters. This position offers an exciting opportunity for a motivated individual to gain hands-on experience in a fast-paced tech startup, focusing on internal user support and first-line troubleshooting.

This role will be responsible for providing first-line technical assistance to staff, including addressing hardware, software, AV, and network issues. Your role will involve managing IT support tickets, assisting with the onboarding and offboarding process for new and departing employees, and ensuring the effective operation of employee IT needs and common office technologies.

In addition to core support, you will play a key role in maintaining an accurate inventory of IT hardware, assisting the IT team with documentation and process refinement, and learning to administer key SaaS business applications. Your ability to clearly communicate technical solutions to non-technical users and your eagerness to learn new technologies will be essential. This position requires a balance of organizational skills and a proactive, problem-solving mindset in a dynamic startup atmosphere. If you have a home lab and love solving technical problems, we want to meet you.

Our ideal candidate is able to work onsite four days a week and between 20-30 hours. If you are an active student, we can be flexible with your class schedule.

  • Documentation: Actively update our internal knowledge base to ensure that once a problem is solved, it's documented.
  • Project Support: Assist with rollout projects, SaaS audits, and security compliance tasks.
  • Automation: Use and create internal tools that leverage AI to help automate repetitive tasks

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
