About this role
Duolingo is looking for an MBA intern to own a meaningful piece of the product—not just assist with one. You'd lead a feature through its full lifecycle, from research and specification through launch and analysis, working with designers and engineers to shape how millions of learners experience the app. Recent intern projects have tackled teaching Asian languages more effectively, strategies for emerging markets, and offline learning improvements, so you'd be working on problems that genuinely matter to the business.
The role expects you to come in with real PM or adjacent experience—at least three years in product management, software engineering, design, data analysis, or a related field—plus the analytical chops to make data-driven decisions and the instinct for simple, intuitive design. You'll need to be available for the full 12 weeks and currently pursuing an MBA or related master's degree graduating in late 2027 or spring 2028. Duolingo pairs interns with experienced PM mentors and gives you exposure to senior leaders alongside the day-to-day work of shipping features that affect real users.
The internship is based in Pittsburgh and pays $63–65 per hour. Beyond salary, you get relocation assistance, in-house meals, language learning access, and the typical perks of a well-resourced company culture. If you've built products or led projects before and want to do it at scale on a mission-driven team, this is a genuine opportunity to prove yourself as a PM.
