Job summary

OpenGov is seeking Product Engineer Interns in Atlanta, GA, to learn what it means to own a product from discovery to delivery. This internship focuses on product thinking, not just development, with AI-native tooling support and strong emphasis on customer insight.

You’ll develop a curious mindset about customers and outcomes, while building toward code fluency with AI-assisted workflows. The 10-week internship runs June 7, 2027 through August 13, 2027.

Qualifications

• Currently pursuing a degree in computer science, information systems, product design, HCI, business, or closely adjacent field — or equivalent self-directed experience.
• Genuine curiosity about customers and why products succeed or fail; you find yourself asking "who is this for and does it actually solve their problem?"
• Strong written communication: you can articulate a product decision clearly enough that an engineer and a designer walk away aligned.
• Comfort with ambiguity and speed: you make reasonable decisions with incomplete information rather than waiting for certainty.
• Willingness to grow into code fluency using AI-native tooling — you don't need to arrive as a developer, but you must be willing to get there.
• Prior exposure to product management, UX design, software development, or customer research is a plus — in any form.
• Familiarity with design tools (Figma, etc.) or development tooling is welcome but not required.

Responsibilities

• Participate in customer discovery conversations; synthesize what you hear into defensible product decisions.
• Define user experience flows and interaction patterns within the existing design system.
• Write intent documents that AI tooling can execute against; review AI-generated specs for accuracy and completeness.
• Partner with your engineering and product mentor to resolve ambiguity in real time during the development cycle.
• Track adoption and usage metrics for your scoped area; use them to drive iteration.
• Present your product area and findings in a final intern showcase — covering the customer problem, what you built, and what you would do next.
• Surface gaps, risks, and unanswered questions proactively; don't wait to be asked.
