Ever wonder what keeps the digital world humming when artificial intelligence takes the wheel? At CenturyLink, we are building the robust network backbone that makes the modern AI era possible. If you want to spend your summer tackling high-stakes challenges instead of fetching coffee, this is your chance. We are searching for forward-thinking students to step into our AI Product and Business Innovation internship pathway. You will collaborate with sharp minds, test bold ideas, and help shape how enterprises connect to tomorrow's technology.

Overview

This is a paid, 10-week summer internship designed to bridge the gap between classroom theory and real-world impact. Operating fully remotely across the US, you will dive headfirst into projects that demand creativity, strategic thinking, and a willingness to take ownership. We offer a high-accountability environment where your voice matters and your contributions directly influence our product roadmap.

Key Responsibilities

Assist in defining product requirements, user stories, and go-to-market strategies.
Present your findings and project milestones to company leaders at the culmination of the program.

Requirements

We care more about your drive, curiosity, and potential than a rigid checklist. You should be currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate degree program focusing on business, product management, computer science, or a related field. Strong communication skills, a knack for solving messy problems, and a genuine passion for emerging technology will set you up for success here.

What You'll Gain

You get hands-on experience solving actual business challenges while receiving mentorship from industry veterans. Beyond the daily work, our program connects you with a vibrant cohort of fellow interns and company executives through networking events and professional development workshops. It is a launching pad for your career.
