About The Position

We’re looking for a Legal Intern to join Ramp’s Product Legal team in Summer 2026 in NYC. You will support complex, cross-functional projects across our financial products, bank partnerships, marketing programs, and emerging technology initiatives. You’ll gain hands-on exposure to how a modern fintech operates, and you’ll support legal review, research, drafting, and the operational processes required to ship products responsibly. You will embed with the business and work closely with Product, Engineering, Sales, Marketing, Security, and other teams to provide practical, clear advice throughout the product lifecycle. Our ideal candidate is genuinely interested in fintech, comfortable working with non-lawyers, and willing to dig into new areas of law, regulation, and technology. You should be excited to work hard, learn quickly, and handle everything from substantive research to operational execution.
