Job Description

Tria Federal (Tria) is seeking driven and ambitious individuals to join our 2027 Summer Internship Program. This full-time opportunity offers a hands-on, impactful work experience tailored to align with your academic and career aspirations. As an intern at Tria, you’ll gain valuable exposure by collaborating with colleagues and engaging with senior executives, all while participating in professional development activities and networking opportunities that enrich your experience.

The Growth Operations Intern supports Tria’s Business Development and Growth function by using technology to advance how the team identifies, qualifies, and captures federal business. The intern owns one or more substantive projects, scoped with the mentor at the start of the internship, that apply AI tools, automation, data integration, or analytics to a real operational need within growth operations. Representative projects include building a working application or tool for the BD team, automating a manual BD or capture workflow, improving pipeline analytics and reporting, or connecting data sources that currently operate in isolation.

Projects are built using vibe coding, in which the intern describes desired behavior in plain English to an AI coding assistant (Claude, Cursor, or similar) and iterates on the output. No prior development experience is required. The internship is self-directed and build-first: the intern sets the pace, manages research, troubleshoots build challenges, and produces weekly deliverables without day-to-day direction, while drawing on the full breadth of the organization’s resources when the work demands it. Progress is reviewed weekly by the mentor and at formal checkpoints by the mentor alongside a BD colleague with experience in comparable builds.

The role applies Tria’s AI- and technology-enabled operating model to the Growth function, converting manual, reactive processes into proactive, data-driven ones that the team can maintain and scale after the intern departs. The ideal candidate is curious about AI tools, writes clearly, works independently, and is interested in how federal business development operates.

Responsibilities:

Technology Projects for Growth Operations

Scope, design, and build one or more projects that apply technology to a real need within Tria’s BD and capture operations, such as an application or tool for the Growth team, an automated workflow, a reporting or analytics capability, or a data integration.
Build using vibe coding, describing desired behavior in plain English to an AI coding assistant and iterating on the output until it produces the intended result.
Validate data accuracy and structure before building logic on top of it.
Troubleshoot build challenges independently before engaging technical staff or other support resources.

Data Integration and Pipeline Analytics

Work with real pipeline data from Salesforce (Growth Opportunity records) and maintain spreadsheet backups where appropriate.
Research and integrate market research and federal data sources (e.g., SAM.gov, USASpending, agency forecasts, GovWin, G2X) and document a data source map for each input a project depends on.
