What are the responsibilities and job description for the Simpli Fellowship position at Donating Simplified (UseSimpli.com)?
The Program
The Simpli Fellowship is a highly selective 10-week summer program at Simpli's New York City office. You'll join the team in person, work on real problems alongside full-time team members, and ship work that matters from day one.
This isn't a rotation program where you observe. You'll pick a track, own projects, and operate as a full member of the team for the entire summer.
Tracks
When You Apply, You'll Select Your Ideal Focus Area
Product & Engineering
Build features, ship code, and shape the platform that enterprise brands and 550k charities depend on. You'll work directly with the CTO and engineering team on real product work — not side projects.
Growth
Help Simpli land and expand enterprise brand partnerships. You'll work directly with the CEO and Growth team on outreach strategy, pipeline development, and client-facing materials.
Impact
Grow and refine Simpli's charity network, coordinate donation logistics, and shape the charity experience on the platform. You'll work directly with the Impact team to expand the foundation that powers every donation.
What You'll Get
Fellows Don't Observe — They Contribute
Why Simpli
Most summer programs give you a lanyard and a LinkedIn post. The Simpli Fellowship gives you ownership, mentorship, a network, and a fast track to building your career at one of the most mission-driven companies in the country.
