OpenGov is looking for Product Engineer Interns who are eager to learn what it means to own a product — from customer discovery through delivery. This internship is built around a new kind of role born from AI's ability to handle execution work that once required multiple specialists. What AI cannot do is decide what matters, talk to customers, make the right call in ambiguous situations, or own whether a product succeeds. That is what Product Engineers learn to do — and this internship is where that journey starts.

This role is first and foremost about developing product thinking — not becoming a developer. The best interns will be the ones who grow genuinely curious about customers: who they are, what they actually need, and what outcomes depend on solving their problems. The engineering side — using AI-native tooling to write code, build interfaces — is a skill you will be introduced to and encouraged to develop. It is a career accelerator, not a day-one requirement.

If you have a background or strong interest in product management, UX design, engineering, or some combination — and you want real ownership of a problem rather than a slide deck — this internship is for you.

"Product Engineer" is two words — but the first word is the one that matters most. The second is how you get there.

The 10-week internship will run from June 7, 2027 through August 13, 2027.

At OpenGov, public service is personal. We are passionate about our mission to power more effective and accountable government. Government that operates efficiently, adapts to change, and strengthens public trust.  Some people say this is boring.  We think it’s the core of our democracy.

We pride ourselves on our performance-based culture, where every employee is encouraged to jump in head-first and take action to help us improve. If you have a great idea, we want to hear it. Excellent performance is recognized and rewarded, and we love to promote from within.
