Want to help us, help others? We’re hiring!

GoFundMe is the world’s most powerful community for good, dedicated to helping people help each other. By uniting individuals and nonprofits in one place, GoFundMe makes it easy and safe for people to ask for help and support causes—for themselves and each other. Together, our community has raised more than $40 billion since 2010.

Join us! We are seeking an MBA Intern to join our Business Operations & Strategy team. This role will sit at the intersection of strategy, analytics, and cross‑functional execution. As an intern, you will work closely with BizOps leaders to analyze data, develop insights, and support strategic initiatives that help GoFundMe scale. You’ll gain exposure to go‑to‑market strategy, operational excellence, and leadership decision‑making, while making a tangible impact on growth and efficiency.

This internship is an excellent opportunity for an MBA student interested in technology, marketplaces, or social impact to apply problem‑solving, data‑driven analysis, and strategic thinking in a dynamic environment.

This opportunity is open to MBA students entering their final year of study. This 10 week internship runs from June 1, 2027 to August 4th, 2027 and is based in San Francisco, CA with Interns expected onsite three days per week.

The Job…

• Partner with Business Operations leaders on high‑impact, cross‑functional projects that improve how we operate and grow.
• Support data‑driven analysis to uncover opportunities in sales, marketing, and customer success, such as funnel performance, pipeline health, or operational efficiency.
• Develop dashboards and reporting in Looker, Salesforce, and other tools to track KPIs and inform decision‑making.
• Conduct deep‑dive analyses across Salesforce, Snowflake, and product data to diagnose performance drivers and recommend solutions.
• Contribute to strategic planning processes (OKRs, QBRs, WBRs) by synthesizing insights and helping drive alignment.
• Build business cases and success metrics for key initiatives to evaluate impact and ROI.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional stakeholders (Product, Marketing, Sales, RevOps, and Data Science) to deliver actionable insights and recommendations.
• Research industry trends and competitive dynamics to inform investment priorities and strategy.
• An MBA student with prior professional experience in consulting, business operations, strategy, finance, analytics, or a related field.
• Comfortable with data analysis and financial modeling; experience with SQL, Excel/Sheets, and BI tools (Looker, Tableau, etc.) is a plus.
• Strong communicator who can translate complex data into clear insights and tell a compelling story.
• Analytical, structured, and detail‑oriented—yet able to zoom out and connect the dots at a strategic level.
• Curious, proactive, and comfortable navigating ambiguity.
• Excited about GoFundMe’s mission and motivated to make a measurable impact on growth.

What you’ll gain…

• Exposure to senior leaders and visibility into strategic decision‑making at a high‑growth tech company.
