Partnerships Intern

Relay•Toronto, ON

About The Position

Relay is a digital banking platform that gives self-made business owners the tools and know-how to be great with money—bringing clarity, confidence, and control to every dollar earned, so they can turn hard work into lasting success. We do this by replacing financial guesswork with real visibility, transforming cash flow from a constant source of stress into a clear signal owners can use to run stronger, more resilient businesses. Relay has an amazing story to tell to SMBs, and working with other software companies that our customers trust is an excellent way to communicate that message, attract new customers, and build our brand. Partnerships will be a defining channel for Relay’s growth. As we scale this function, we're betting that AI-agents and workflows can run a partnerships program at a level that rivals teams several times our size. As a Partnerships Intern, reporting to our Director of Partnerships, you'll spend the summer building agents, shipping production tooling, and helping define what an AI-native go-to-market function looks like at Relay.

Requirements

AI-native. Claude, ChatGPT, and / or other AI tools are languages that your building and learning from every day. You can describe an agent you've built, a workflow you've automated, or a problem you've solved that a year ago you could not have.
An AI-builder, not just an AI-user. Vibe-coded side projects, scrappy internal tools, scripts that saved you hours. We don't care about the form, we care that you experiment!
Comfortable with data; reasoning about funnels, conversion rates, and unit economics.
Curious about business. You want to understand why partnerships matter, how SMB fintech works, and what makes a good partner relationship, not just execute on tickets.
Proactive and self-sufficient: you can take a vague problem, ask the right probing questions, and come back with a working v1.
Bring a learner's mindset. You'll be operating at the edge of what's possible with current AI tooling, which means a lot of "I don't know yet, let me figure it out".

Nice To Haves

A current student in CS, engineering, math, business, or a related field.
Some knowledge of SQL, BI tools (Metabase, Tableau, Looker), Google Sheets, or the basics of an MCP, agent framework, or LLM API.
Shipped a project (a side hustle, a hackathon win, an internal tool, a Shopify app) that someone other than you actually used.

Responsibilities

Build, deploy, and maintain AI agents and workflows that own real parts of the partnerships function, including reporting, support, performance analytics, partner outreach, content, enablement, and market intelligence.
Ship production reporting in Metabase that we send directly to external partners, and iterating on the dashboards based on partner feedback.
Identify anomalies, funnel breakages, and data quality issues by building agents that monitor and flag them proactively.
Draft partner-facing content (one-pagers, campaign briefs, outreach sequences, enablement material) using AI as a co-author and Relay's voice as the source of truth.
Sit in on partner calls, strategy sessions, and internal reviews, and turn the messy outputs into structured artifacts the team can act on.
Document everything you build so the next person, human or agent, can pick it up and run.
