MBA Intern - Commercial Transformation

Databricks • San Francisco, CA

23h • $40 - $40

About The Position

At Databricks, we are passionate about helping data teams solve the world's toughest problems — from making the next mode of transportation a reality to accelerating the development of medical breakthroughs. We do this by building and running the world's best data and AI infrastructure platform so our customers can use deep data insights to improve their business.
As a Commercial Transformation intern, you will join our world-class Commercialization team (COO org) to work on systems and process improvements that make it easier to launch, sell, and scale Databricks products and partner programs. During your 12-week internship, you’ll lead high-impact projects—from untangling 'messy' operational bottlenecks to architecting the systems that scale our global product launches—turning complex ambiguity into clear execution plans with opportunities for full-time employment within the team the following year.
Throughout the internship, you will be mentored by a dedicated sponsor and have the opportunity to connect with senior leaders across the organization.

Requirements

• You will graduate from an MBA program in Spring 2027.
• You have 3-5 years of previous professional experience in management consulting, operations, systems projects, product/program management, or related fields.
• You demonstrate an advanced ability to define and break down ambiguous business problems and design efficient processes with limited guidance.
• You are an excellent, structured communicator (both written and oral), with the ability to synthesize complex data into clear stakeholder updates and action-oriented recommendations.
• You are highly organized and reliable, putting the team before yourself and remaining willing to get hands-on with multiple workstreams no matter how small the task.
• You have a strong interest in enterprise software/SaaS commercialization, operations, systems, and go-to-market strategy.
• You are proficient in Excel/Sheets and have experience using AI productivity tools (such as Claude Code and Lovable) to enhance your workflow.

Nice To Haves

• Previous experience with SQL or Databricks for querying and reporting preferred.
• Previous experience with go-to-market concepts (pricing, packaging, quoting) or platforms like SFDC, CPQ, NetSuite, or Jira preferred.

Responsibilities

• Drive Strategic Projects: Own end-to-end commercialization transformation projects—from new product introductions to partner programs—by documenting current processes and identifying high-impact opportunities to simplify, automate, and scale.
• Inform High-Stakes Decisions: Provide the analytical rigor and data-driven insights necessary to monitor program health, building lightweight dashboards and metrics tracking that translate raw data into leading indicators for executive leadership.
• Communicate with Clarity: Synthesize complex business needs into clear requirements, user stories, and formal documentation (such as BRD/PRD sections) that bridge the gap between technical system requirements and executive-level strategy.
• Enable the Field: Ensure seamless execution of commercial initiatives by producing critical operational deliverables, including process maps, rollout checklists, and User Acceptance Testing (UAT) plans to prepare the field for new product launches.
• Influence the Roadmap: Act as a central point of alignment across RevOps, Sales, Finance, Legal, and Product teams, gathering diverse stakeholder input to ensure internal systems and workflows support the broader commercialization roadmap.
