CEO Fellowship
CEO Fellowship Opportunity
We’re looking for a small group of students to join us this summer who are excited about our mission and want to contribute meaningfully to a growing startup. This fellowship is designed to match you with work that actually fits your skill set and interests. It’s flexible, remote, and built for people who want to be useful, not just busy.
Whether you’re into writing, product strategy, research, or go-to-market, we’ll find a way for you to plug in.
You’ll have the opportunity to work directly with and gain mentorship from our founder and CEO, Kira Shishkin—a serial entrepreneur, investor, and Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree. Check out Kira’s LinkedIn here.
For tech, startup, and product-minded students:
informed offers a hands-on look at how a lean, mission-driven startup builds and scales a digital product.
Depending on your background, you might contribute to areas like user experience, internal tools, product strategy, or experimentation, gaining exposure to how human editors and AI agents work together to identify and deliver the day’s most important stories with speed and clarity.
You’ll see what it takes to ship quickly, prioritize effectively, and build something people genuinely rely on.
For students interested in journalism, policy, law, or international affairs:
informed is rebuilding the relationship between the world's leaders and the news by making it easier to access accurate, high-impact information without distraction. If you're drawn to topics of public trust, clear communication, and the ethics of media, this is a chance to contribute meaningfully.
Depending on your experience, you might support editorial review, source evaluation, or broader research projects that help maintain our commitment to clarity and neutrality. You’ll join a team focused on helping readers engage with the world more thoughtfully without adding to the noise.
