Job description

We anticipate the application window for this opening will close on - 7 Nov 2026

At MiniMed, you can begin a lifelong career of exploration and innovation, while helping make a difference in the lives of people living with diabetes around the globe. You'll lead with purpose, breaking down barriers to innovation for a more connected, compassionate world.

About the Role

Join MiniMed for a summer internship where you'll do meaningful work, gain hands-on experience, and make an impact on our mission to make every day a better day for people with diabetes. You'll be part of a collaborative intern community, build your professional network, and gain exposure to opportunities that help you grow both personally and professionally.

Our summer internships are full-time (40 hours/week), paid positions lasting 10-12 weeks.

We offer competitive compensation, educational and social programming throughout the summer, as well as housing assistance and relocation support for eligible interns.

We want to invest in you-the next generation of marketing, corporate development, and strategy leaders. During your 10-12 week internship, you'll put your MBA skills into action on high-impact business challenges, working alongside experienced leaders and cross-functional teams to help shape decisions that matter.

This is more than an opportunity to learn-it's an opportunity to lead through influence, solve complex business problems, and create measurable impact. You'll apply strategic thinking, analytical skills, and customer and market insights to real-world opportunities. Your work may include evaluating market and competitive dynamics, developing business cases, identifying growth opportunities, shaping strategic recommendations, improving business processes, and presenting insights to senior leaders.

You'll gain a broad view of how marketing, corporate development, and strategy come together to drive business performance while building your leadership capabilities and enterprise perspective. As an MBA intern, you'll have the opportunity to own meaningful work, collaborate across functions, and contribute to business outcomes-not simply observe them. You'll leave with a deeper understanding of the medical technology industry, a stronger strategic toolkit, and a track record of impact you can carry forward in your career.

Assignment areas may include:

• Upstream Marketing
• Market & Therapy Development
• Downstream Marketing
• Corporate Development
• Corporate Strategy
