UGC Creative & Creator Ops (Intern)

Build like a founder. Ship like Spartan.

Spartan is where world-class engineers build world-class startups. Our customers are scaling fast and so are we. At Spartan, we don't act like vendors. We embed with startups backed by YC, Pear VC, a16z, Techstars, and more - partnering with founders and engineers from Stanford, MIT, Yale, Google, Amazon, Uber, and beyond. Together, we help launch MVPs in 30 days and scale systems that power millions of users.

This isn't fetch coffee and file tickets. As an intern at Spartan, you'll work on real projects - whether that's backend services, frontend apps, AI workflows, or DevOps - and learn directly from engineers who've scaled companies to IPO.

You'll also get a front-row seat to the future of AI: 70% of our portfolio today is LLM-powered. Our engineers leverage the latest tools like Cursor, Claude, and Codex to accelerate development and integrate AI-native workflows into everything we build.

We're looking for a UGC Creative & Creator Ops Intern who understands short-form video trends and can support the full UGC workflow: spotting trends, guiding creators, creating sample videos, and helping recruit UGC creators.
