## About the role

As the Launch & Scale Intern, you will contribute to a high-impact project that improves how Zipline plans, executes, and learns from launches. You will support Launch Managers by bringing structure to dependencies, analyzing readiness and performance, and helping teams turn field lessons into repeatable tools. You may spend time close to active launches, but you will work with experienced teammates rather than serve as the accountable launch owner.

## What they're looking for

- Support integrated launch plans for assigned workstreams by organizing milestones, dependencies, owners, risks, and open decisions
- Analyze launch and site-operations data to identify bottlenecks, inconsistencies, and opportunities to improve speed, quality, or repeatability
- Prepare materials for readiness reviews and operating forums, including concise status summaries, action logs, and decision briefs
- Work with Launch Managers and functional teams to follow up on commitments, reconcile conflicting information, and surface blockers early
- Build or improve practical tools such as dashboards, playbooks, templates, checklists, or lightweight automations
- Participate in selected onsite launch activities, capture field observations, and translate lessons into process improvements
