What are the responsibilities and job description for the Government Affairs Intern position at Integrate?
About Us
Integrate is a Seattle-based company building program management software for the world’s most ambitious machines 🦾 Integrate simplifies cross-organizational collaboration within deep tech (think rockets, self-driving cars, robotics), with vendors, customers, and other external stakeholders as seamlessly as other software solves collaboration for internal teams. We are revolutionizing how organizations work together in the new deep tech economy by reducing communication overhead and unnecessary workload.
Our Solution
Despite growing tailwinds in deeptech and manufacturing industries in the US, existing software tools are inadequate to keep up with the rapid iteration and accelerated pace of hardware development. Integrate is developing a modern, specialized software solution that will enable seamless communication between all stakeholders internal and external to bring on the future, faster.
Position Overview
Integrate is seeking a part-time or full-time Government Affairs Intern to support our Washington, DC office and work directly with our Managing Director of Washington Operations. This role is a great opportunity for an undergraduate or graduate student to gain hands-on experience at the intersection of government, national security, and startup operations. You’ll help track legislation and policy developments, prepare briefing materials, support business development efforts, and assist with office operations. No two days will look the same — one day you might be summarizing a new space policy memo, the next attending a Hill meeting or industry event.
Responsibilities
This position requires access to information protected under US export control laws, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations and/or the Export Administration Regulations. As such, US person status (including US citizens, U.S. permanent residents, individuals granted U.S. asylum status, or individuals admitted in U.S. refugee status) is a required qualification for this position.
Equal Opportunity Employer
We are an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and/or expression, national origin, protected veteran status, disability, genetics, or citizenship status (when otherwise legally authorized to work and access export-controlled data) and will not be discriminated against on the basis of such characteristics or any other status protected by the laws or regulations in the locations where we operate. We encourage applicants of all ages.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
