About this role

ABOUT BESTOW Life insurance is one of the world's most important products. It's also one of the hardest to build, distribute, and modernize. Bestow exists to change that. Bestow is a leading vertical technology platform serving some of the largest and most innovative life insurers. Our platform unifies the fragmented, legacy value chain, enabling carriers to launch products in weeks instead of years. Carriers choose us to scale and operate at unprecedented speed, powered by AI and automation. Bestow isn't selling policies. We're building the infrastructure that helps an entire industry move faster, reach more people, and deliver on its promise. Backed by leading investors (Goldman Sachs, Hedosophia, NEA, Valar, 8VC) and trusted by major carriers, Bestow is powered by a team that moves with precision, purpose, and heart. If you want to help reimagine a centuries-old industry with lasting impact, join us. Bestow offers flexible remote/hybrid work, meaningful benefits, equity, and substantial growth opportunities.

ABOUT THE TEAM BizOps at Bestow runs the cross-functional initiatives that don't fit neatly on one team's plate, and we lead how the non-engineering side of the company adopts AI in its everyday work. Bestow is enterprise SaaS technology for life insurance carriers. We modernize everything from underwriting to policy administration for partners like Nationwide, Transamerica, and USAA, and BizOps makes sure the company runs as efficiently as the platform we sell. This internship reports directly to the BizOps Lead and puts you in the room for real strategic work. You'll own pieces of the AI transformation program, build the materials that go in front of executives, and coordinate work across departments. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Build the AI context layer: Help construct and maintain the knowledge base that powers Bestow's internal AI tools, structuring information so agents and teammates can actually find and use it - Own knowledge management: Organize how BizOps captures decisions, docs, and processes so nothing lives only in someone's head. - Build executive-ready materials: Produce pitch decks and financial models that go in front of department heads and the leadership team - Train people on AI skills: Run enablement sessions and build guides that raise the whole company's AI fluency, not just recommend tools, but teach people to use them well - Coordinate cross-department initiatives: Track work across teams, keep initiatives moving, and flag blockers before they become fire drills - Measure what matters: Help define and track whether our AI initiatives are actually driving adoption and results WHO YOU ARE - Currently pursuing an undergraduate degree: ideally targeting private equity, investment banking, consulting, or a strategy/operations career - Genuinely excited about AI: you already use AI tools in your own work and want to go deeper on how they change how businesses operate - Comfortable with numbers. You can build a financial model and turn analysis into a clear recommendation - A strong communicator: You write clearly, build clean decks, and can explain a complex idea to someone who wasn't in the room - Self-directed: You take an ambiguous problem, break it down, and drive it forward without waiting to be told each step - Organized and reliable: You keep multiple workstreams straight and follow through WHY THIS ROLE You'll learn AI transformation by actually doing it (e.g. real budget, real stakeholders, real outcomes) while getting mentorship from a team of ex-MBB consultants. For students early in their career, you’ll be gaining valuable and tangible “real world” experience that's hard to get anywhere else.
