Join a mission driven team where your ideas fuel real change whether you're passionate about tech, policy, communications, or community impact. Interns at SkyIT collaborate on cross functional projects, build leadership skills, and contribute to initiatives that matter globally.

At SkyIT, you’ll:
• Be mentored by seasoned professionals dedicated to unlocking your potential.

Role Description

As an Strategic Proposal Writer – Legal, Policy & Innovation Intern within SkyIT’s Proposal Team, you will play a key role in transforming complex regulatory, contractual, and technical information into clear, persuasive narratives for government and international funding submissions. Supporting proposals tied to advanced fleet intelligence platforms and enterprise asset management solutions, you will help ensure that proposal content aligns with legal requirements, regulatory frameworks, and procurement standards.

This role is designed for law students, JD candidates, recent law graduates, and individuals with legal domain expertise who are interested in gaining hands-on experience in legal writing, regulatory interpretation, and government contracting processes. In this role, you will translate statutory and regulatory requirements into well-structured proposal narratives, ensuring that submissions clearly communicate compliance, risk mitigation, and legal alignment with agency expectations.

Interns will contribute to the development of executive summaries, compliance narratives, regulatory justifications, and policy-aligned messaging, strengthening the legal credibility and clarity of SkyIT’s proposal submissions. This experience offers a unique opportunity to apply legal research, analytical reasoning, and persuasive legal writing within real-world federal, municipal, and international procurement environments.

This program has been an incredibly valuable and enriching experience, offering hands-on exposure and real-world insights that are rarely available at this stage. One of the most unique aspects is the opportunity to be mentored directly by the CEO, gaining firsthand guidance, strategic perspective, and leadership insights that are invaluable for long-term growth. Importantly, this is the final session in which the program will be conducted, making it a truly exclusive opportunity that will not be repeated in the future.
