Technical Marketing Specialist Intern

Department: Growth & Content Strategy

Location: (Hybrid/Remote)

Duration: 10-12 Weeks (Summer), Semester-long, or Part-Time

Pay Rate: Competitive Hourly + Opportunity for Full-Time Conversion

About the Role

In tech consulting, we don't just build solutions; we tell a story about how those solutions change business outcomes. As a Technical Marketing Specialist Intern, you will help translate complex technology into compelling narratives that win new client deals.

You will work alongside our Pre-Sales team, Solutions Architects, and Content Leads to produce high-impact materials like case studies, whitepapers, demo videos, and webinars. You will learn how to leverage real-world implementation successes to build trust with potential enterprise clients.

Key Responsibilities

Content Creation: Draft and edit technical articles, case studies, and blog posts that showcase client success stories and industry trends.

Pre-Sales Enablement: Build "Battle Cards," competitor comparison guides, and pitch deck assets to help our consultants close deals faster.

Technical Writing: Simplify complex solution architectures (e.g., Cloud Migration, AI Integration) for marketing audiences without losing technical accuracy.

Research & Trend Analysis: Monitor technology trends and client pain points to propose relevant content topics for the quarterly editorial calendar.

Social Media Management: Manage our firm's LinkedIn presence, posting updates that highlight thought leadership, project milestones, and team wins.

Event Support: Assist in planning and executing webinars, industry roundtables, and conference booths (e.g., AWS re:Invent, Microsoft Ignite).

Review & Compliance: Proofread all client-facing collateral against NDA guidelines to ensure no sensitive data is inadvertently published.

Qualifications & Requirements

Education: Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s in Marketing, Communications, Business, Engineering, or Information Technology.

Tech Literacy: You do not need to be a coder, but you must understand core concepts (APIs, Cloud Basics, Data Security) well enough to discuss them accurately.

Writing Skills: Strong command of professional English; able to adapt tone for both technical audiences and C-suite executives.

Portfolio: Must bring a link to writing samples (blogs, essays, articles) or a personal blog/GitHub that demonstrates communication skills.

Curiosity: A genuine interest in how technology solves business problems (e.g., "How does a data lake help a bank prevent fraud?").

Preferred Skills

CMS Experience: Familiarity with WordPress, Drupal, or HubSpot CMS.

Design Tools: Basic proficiency in Canva or Figma to create simple graphics to accompany copy.

Analytics: Understanding of GA4 basics or how to track engagement on marketing pages.

Industry Knowledge: Previous experience covering SaaS, FinTech, or Tech Consulting topics is a plus.

Why This Internship Matters

Direct Impact: See your content appear in sales decks that help us sign million-dollar contracts.

Cross-Functional Network: Work with the Engineering team (who build the tech) and the Sales team (who sell it). You become the "bridge."

Thought Leadership: Opportunities to guest-author on industry newsletters or speak at local tech meetups with firm mentorship.

Career Pathway: Exposure to Content Management, Product Marketing, or Technical Program Management upon graduation.

The Consulting Mindset

Precision: We cannot use buzzwords; every word in a case study must be accurate and defensible.

Confidentiality: You will sign a strict Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). If you publish content, it must be vetted by the Security team.

Storytelling: You are not just selling software; you are selling transformation, resilience, and growth for our clients.
