Job description

Want an amazing and meaningful Internship?

Want to know and experience what it is truly like to have your own business, run a startup or just be an Entrepreneur? Are you interested in networking and making valuable connections? Do you want to be part of a growing community of international entrepreneurs who are looking to change the world? Are you self motivated, social, and have A LOT of energy?

NGIN’s Internship Programs are created to explore the growing field of entrepreneurship and give students in the area a chance to get involved with Boston startups as well as established companies. Interns will work closely with the COO, to help build and support the community. You’ll be working side‑by‑side with great companies that are changing the world, such as: Cure Forward, Emulate, Lighter Culture, Everseat, Cangrade, & more!

Some of the cool things about our company are:

• You’ll only work with successful, interesting and friendly people (business owners, entrepreneurs, venture capitalist, investors, CEO’s and Founders, cancer researchers, etc).
• You get to be part of a team making a difference and growing a brand new business.
• You get to work in a small business: no corporate mandates or crazy, arbitrary rules. You’ll work with the owners and decision makers directly.
• You get to have a say. Once you are familiar with what’s going on, you will be free to make suggestions and changes to help make things better.
• Free membership! Need to work on the project, do homework? You’ll have 24/7 access to our state‑of‑the‑art office space.
• Team lunches on Friday, free beer, ice cream and much more.

Our team is made up of people who genuinely care about entrepreneurship and startups and have decided that a “corporate job” isn’t for them, and decided to pursue their passions to work for NGIN and help other entrepreneurs.
