Relay Launchpad Summer 2026 Intern - Product Management

Relay, a dynamic and rapidly growing tech startup based in Raleigh, is on a mission to revolutionize frontline work. For decades, technology has supercharged the desk worker while leaving behind the 80% of the global workforce who don’t sit at a desk. The builders, the caregivers, the operators, the movers—the frontline—still rely on walkie-talkies, paper notes, and shouted instructions.

At Relay, we believe it’s time for a change. Our smart, rugged radios and connected cloud ecosystem harness the power of voice and AI to close this digital chasm. We’re building tools that meet frontline workers where they are, capturing tribal knowledge, and turning communication into action. By transforming every spoken word into intelligence, we’re delivering safety, productivity, and empowerment to the workers who keep our world moving.

We are looking for a motivated and ambitious undergraduate student expected to graduate in December 2026 or Spring 2027 from a local university to join our Product team for a paid Summer Internship. High-performing interns may have the opportunity to extend their internship part-time into their final academic year, and will be considered for potential full-time roles after graduation, depending on business needs.

Job Overview

This is not a traditional internship—it’s a rotational experience designed to expose interns to multiple sub-domains of product management and adjacent functions. Depending on your skills, interests, and performance, you’ll rotate through and flex into areas such as:

• Core Product Management – shaping the roadmap, guiding discovery and delivery, and bringing AI-powered products to life.
• Revenue Strategy – analyzing markets, pricing, and GTM (go-to-market) strategy to accelerate adoption and growth.
• Solutions Engineering – engaging directly with customers to design, validate, and demonstrate AI-driven solutions in real-world environments.

You’ll get hands-on exposure to how Relay brings its mission to life—from defining frontline needs, to designing features, to aligning GTM motions, to tailoring AI solutions for enterprise customers.

The internship will be based at our Raleigh, NC headquarters and is in-office. Summer interns are expected to work full-time during the summer. For students who continue during the academic year, we will work around class schedules, but interns are expected to be in-office at least 2x per week.

What You Will Do

• Support the Product Management team in developing and executing product strategy.
• Rotate into projects across Product, Revenue Strategy, and Solutions Engineering, gaining a holistic understanding of how new technologies reach and impact frontline workers.
• Participate in customer discovery efforts: interviews, site visits, and hands-on trials of new features.
• Analyze market data and customer behavior to shape pricing, packaging, and GTM decisions.
• Collaborate with Sales and Solutions Engineering to validate product-market fit and demonstrate product value in customer environments.
• Contribute to defining requirements, writing user stories, and supporting engineering teams during delivery.
• Support adoption efforts by drafting Release Notes, building enablement materials, and contributing to customer-facing presentations.

What You Will Bring

• Undergraduate student at a local university with an expected graduation date of December 2026 or Spring 2027.
• Pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Business, Economics, Computer Science, Statistics, Engineering, or a related field with a GPA of 3.5 or above.
• Strong blend of business and technical acumen; able to engage meaningfully in both strategic and technical conversations.
• Analytical mindset with curiosity about AI, real-time data, and emerging technologies, and how they can be applied to frontline work.
• Ability to adapt quickly, thrive in ambiguity, and lean into different disciplines as the rotation requires.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build strong relationships across teams and with customers.
• Entrepreneurial spirit and passion for working in a dynamic, high-growth startup environment.
