Intern - Communications

OpenX

6d • $20 - $20

About The Position

OpenX is looking for a Communications Intern who is equal parts storyteller, researcher, and detail-obsessive. This is not a passive role — you’ll be plugged into the rhythm of our business, helping shape how we talk about who we are, what we’re building, and why it matters.
If you’re someone who notices headlines others miss, rewrites sentences in your head for fun, and asks “why does this matter?” as a reflex, you’ll do well here.

Requirements

• A strong writing instinct (you know when something sounds off and how to fix it)
• Sharp attention to detail (you catch the typo, the tone shift, the missing context)
• Genuine curiosity about media, tech, and how companies tell their stories
• Ability to take in a lot of information and quickly make it useful
• Comfort working in Google Docs, Slides, and Sheets
• Resourcefulness and curiosity

Nice To Haves

• Write outside of class (newsletter, blog, student media, etc.)
• Have opinions about headlines, brand voice, or how companies show up publicly
• Are curious about advertising, media, or the adtech ecosystem

Responsibilities

• Write, Edit, Repeat
• Draft and refine content across press materials, internal comms, executive messaging, and more
• Help turn ideas, data, and half-formed thoughts into clear, compelling narratives
• Support thought leadership development from research to early drafts
• Stay Ahead of the Story
• Monitor media, competitors, and industry trends (and actually connect the dots)
• Create smart, skimmable news digests that people want to read
• Spot timely hooks (events, reports, industry news) where OpenX has a voice
• Make the Comms Engine Run Smoothly
• Keep media lists, trackers, and editorial calendars organized and up to date
• Support research and prep for press outreach and storytelling opportunities
• Help maintain a high bar for clarity, consistency, and quality across content
• Work Across Teams
• Collaborate with marketing, product, and leadership to gather inputs and shape messaging
• Contribute to projects that actually ship

Benefits

• Real experience contributing to communications at a global adtech company
• A front-row seat to how storytelling, PR, and business strategy intersect
• Work that actually gets published
• Mentorship from a caring team
