Team and role context

The Global Customer Services group is described as the part of the business that supports customers after the sale.

This internship supports the Professional Services team and works closely with commercial leadership to help shape strategies, build solutions, and improve how the organization serves customers and develops market opportunities.

The company says it is looking for people who are curious, practical, and comfortable using AI as a tool to solve difficult problems. The environment is described as iterative and fast-moving, with an emphasis on building quickly, improving continuously, and sharing useful improvements across the team.
