Strategic Engagements & Events Intern (Spring 2027)

Zipline is the world’s largest and most experienced drone delivery service. We are on a mission to serve all humans equally by ensuring access to food, medicine and essential goods anytime, anywhere. We design, build, and operate the world’s largest autonomous logistics system, delivering critical supplies quickly and reliably. Today, Zipline operates on four continents, makes a delivery somewhere in the world every 30 seconds, and has completed millions of deliveries to date, including blood, vaccines, medical supplies, food, and retail products.

Our customers include the world’s largest and most prominent healthcare systems, governments, retailers, restaurants and global businesses who rely on us to save lives, reduce emissions, increase economic opportunity, and provide delivery from point A to point B as fast as possible. The drone is only 15% of what we’ve built to enable seamless, reliable, global operations.

Our system strengthens supply chains, reduces congestion, and gives people time back. With more than 140 million commercial autonomous miles safely flown, Zipline is redefining access to healthcare, consumer products, and food across the globe.

We operate at a global scale and are looking for practical problem solvers who thrive on real-world challenges and rapid growth. Our team is motivated by building systems that have a direct, meaningful impact on people’s lives and by scaling the future of logistics. We are seeking people who sculpt from first principles, enjoy facing adversity, and can do the impossible at record breaking speeds.

Strategic Engagement and Events helps Zipline build relationships, understanding, and momentum with the people who matter most to our growth. We work across Commercial, Government Affairs, Communications, Market Entry, Operations, Partnerships, and other teams to turn important business priorities into thoughtful stakeholder experiences and engagement strategies. Our work can range from hosting government and civic leaders for technology demonstrations, to supporting a new market launch, coordinating a strategic partner moment, or creating an experience for investors, customers, or community leaders. We focus on the objective first: understanding who we need to reach, what we want them to understand or do, and designing the right engagement to help make that happen. Because our work sits at the intersection of strategy and execution, our team gets a unique view into how Zipline grows and builds trust in new and existing markets.

As a Strategic Engagements & Events Intern, you’ll help turn Zipline’s biggest business moments into meaningful experiences for the people who can help move our mission forward. You’ll work alongside the Strategic Engagement & Events team from the earliest stages of an opportunity—researching audiences and markets, helping develop engagement recommendations, and building project plans—all the way through execution and follow-up. Depending on the project, you might help prepare for a visit from government leaders, support a market launch, coordinate a partner event, or help bring Zipline’s technology to life for an entirely new audience. You’ll collaborate with teams across the company and gain firsthand experience in stakeholder engagement, communications, project management, event production, and business strategy. This is a role for someone who is excited to think critically, stay organized, and roll up their sleeves to make ambitious ideas happen.
