Early Talent Sophmore Intern

We’re not just building better tech. We’re rewriting how data moves and what the world can do with it. With Confluent, data doesn’t sit still. Our platform puts information in motion, streaming in near real-time so companies can react faster, build smarter, and deliver experiences as dynamic as the world around them.

It takes a certain kind of person to join this team. Those who ask hard questions, give honest feedback, and show up for each other. No egos, no solo acts. Just smart, curious humans pushing toward something bigger, together.

One Confluent. One Team. One Data Streaming Platform.

What we do MATTERS -- we aim to attract, empower and hire top talent early in their careers into opportunities at Confluent. Your internship will be a hybrid working model that introduces you to Confluent's culture and enables faster learning, onboarding, and coaching.

As part of the Early Career Recruiting Team this summer, you receive a hands-on opportunity to gain exposure across recruiting, talent operations, employer branding, and early career program management and see how these functions are built, scaled, and delivered at a fast-growing tech company. Through your rotations you will gain real project ownership, and work closely with mentors who are invested in your growth.
