Sales Effectiveness Intern

Partner Sales – Operational Strategy & Excellence

Do you naturally look for faster, cleaner ways to get things done?

· Maybe you instinctively weigh time vs. effort when choosing a route around traffic.

· Or you gravitate toward self-checkout, mobile apps, or delivery—not because you have to, but because it's simply more efficient.

· Or you'd rather design a better system than repeat the same manual step twice.

You don't need to be a software engineer or information systems major — but you do need to think.

· You naturally look at any process and wonder how to improve it

· You like figuring out how things work (and fixing them)

· You can break down a problem and explain your thinking clearly

· You're curious how GTM (go-to-market) teams operate—and will probably want to optimize those workflows across people, processes, and systems

· You're interested in AI, data, or systems and crave seeing how it's applied to real life

· You're comfortable working with human-centric workflows—not just abstract ideas

· You'll come to work with genuine curiosity and swift action impulses

What you'll be working on

· In this role, you'll help us build and improve how a global sales team actually works—using AI, data, and better systems.

· We're turning our customer relationship management (CRM) platform from a static system of record into a real-time, predictive deal intelligence platform. You'll help shape that.

· You'll also play a hands-on role in moving AI from experimentation into real adoption within a global sales organization.

What you'll do

· Stress-test and improve our AI. Push our deal intelligence tools in real scenarios, identify what's off, and help make them actually useful for reps

· Turn messy deal data into clear signals. Spot patterns across deals, regions, and channels—what's working, what's not—and translate that into actionable guidance

· Teach AI how to "think" like a seller. Convert sales intuition into structured logic—defining what good looks like and how we guide decisions

· Build out foundation behind the system. Create and refine the content powering our AI and onboarding (playbooks, deal guidance, knowledge materials)

· Make onboarding exceptional. Turn our onboarding into something that prepares reps to run deals—by filling gaps, improving content, and continuously testing what sticks

· Get hands-on with the data behind it all. Build and analyze Salesforce reports and dashboards to track pipeline health, conversion, and deal flow—and sanity-check what's actually happening vs what the system says

What you'll learn

· How a global, multi-channel sales org actually runs

· How AI gets applied to real workflows (not just demos)

· How to turn messy problems into structured, scalable solutions

· How decisions that impact revenue actually get made

· How to take something ambiguous and make it work in practice

Bonus points if you've ever:

· Built something (even small) to fix a problem

· Automated a task because it annoyed you

· Used AI tools in a practical way (not just for fun)

What this internship means for your career after graduation

· Hands‑on experience with technical platforms, applying AI, CRM insights, and data to real, active sales workflows

· A results-backed resume, with clear ownership of initiatives that deliver measurable business impact

· Highly transferable skills in analytical thinking, system design, and process optimization valued across roles and industries

· Stronger business judgment and professional maturity, developed through exposure to real decisions

· Proven experience operating in fast‑paced environments, contributing to time‑sensitive, revenue‑driven work

Program Details

· Location: Mountain View, CA (in-office)
