Commercial Programs Intern

As a team, we’ve launched five satellites into orbit, signed ten commercial deals worth over $1 billion in revenue, raised over $750 million from top global investors, and recruited a team of over 400 world-class engineers.

We all work out of our (legendary) San Francisco office, which was once used to build ships during the World Wars.

Our satellites, which operate from geostationary orbit (GEO), weigh only 400 kg and utilize a proprietary software-defined radio payload.

Each satellite can connect over two million people, and we’re very excited for the impact we’ll soon have in the Philippines, Peru, Mexico, and more!

Backed by substantial funding and a passionate, collaborative team, we offer a rewarding work environment where you'll learn and make a significant impact, no matter where you are in your career.

We are looking for a dynamic and driven Commercial Programs & Events Intern to join our growing Commercial Organization and play a key role in planning, organizing, and executing impactful events worldwide to support our sales initiatives.

This is a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience in event management, logistics, and program coordination while thriving in a fast-paced, high-energy environment.

As part of a small but agile team, you’ll collaborate cross-functionally with sales, marketing, finance, and facilities—gaining invaluable exposure to multiple facets of a global business.

If you’re eager to learn, excited by the challenge of executing world-class events, and ready to make a real impact, we’d love to have you on board!
