Every year, Campus Ambassadors welcome over 135,000 visitors to UC Berkeley’s campus from around the world. New ambassadors do not need to have extensive knowledge of the university nor exceptional public speaking skills as all new ambassadors will receive training. Ambassadors are paid to lead walking tours, serve guests at the Koret Visitor Center and the Campanile, and staff major campus events such as Cal Day and Homecoming.

EOP is seeking Mentees and Mentors in the sciences for the EOP STEM Mentorship Program. The purpose of this semester-long program is to connect and build a supportive community for EOP students interested in pursuing STEM. Our goal is to assist students in successfully navigating and completing their academic journey at the nation’s #1 public institution. As a peer mentorship program, we thoughtfully pair students we believe will work well together; however, applicants also have the opportunity to indicate who they think would make a great mentee.
All applications due September 2!
EOP STEM is searching for Berkeley students interested in the sciences who would like to receive mentorship from experienced Berkeley students pursuing a degree/career in STEM! Freshmen and sophomores are highly encouraged to apply! Learn more and sign up for an infosession.
The mentor role is highly rewarding, offering the opportunity to provide guidance and support to first-generation, low-income, and historically underrepresented students in STEM. As a mentor, you will be paired with a mentee with an emphasis on STEM. Time commitment for 4-5 hours a month. Must be able to complete program requirements throughout the Fall 2026 semester. Learn more and sign up to mentor.
Remote internship – email nshakouri@pointcare.com for info/apply.
Pointcare is a mission-driven health tech startup helping patients and clinics navigate the complexities of public coverage, whether that’s Medicaid, Medicare, or ACA Marketplace. Every month, people lapse out of Medicaid without realizing it, because they never received notice from Medicaid or their provider. millions more are eligible for subsidized coverage but don’t know it. The result is delayed care, lower preventive visits, worse health outcomes, and bad debt for the community health clinics and health systems that serve these patients.
With non-profit roots, we’re still driven by that same philanthropic motive, working toward a future where healthcare and health coverage are accessible to everyone. Our patient-facing app, and everything behind it, exists because signing up for coverage and staying enrolled shouldn’t be this hard. We’re hiring a Product Management Intern to work directly alongside our Product Manager on everything from scrappy prototypes to shipped features. This is a role for someone who likes to build, move fast, and turn open-ended problems into structured processes and solutions. If you like ambiguity, moving fast, and turning “someone should really fix this” into something people actually use, this is the perfect opportunity for that.
What you’ll actually be doing
• Own initiatives, not just tasks. You’ll talk to operations, engineering, and marketing, whoever needs to be in the loop, and turn a “we should probably…” into a task, ticket, or internal tool someone can actually build, then help push it through to shipped.
• Let the data make the case. Pull the numbers and use what you find to size up opportunities and figure out what we build next (and what we skip).
• Prototype and vibe-code whenever you can. Mock things up and vibe-code a rough version with Claude, Gemini, or whatever’s fastest, so we can test direction before anyone overthinks it.
• Build the tools nobody else has time to build. Small internal automations, dashboards, scripts: whatever makes the team’s day-to-day less painful.
• Keep initiatives on track. Keep initiatives moving across operations, engineering, marketing, sales, product, and account management. Track dependencies, chase blockers, make sure the right people know what’s happening and when.
• Help us grow. As we roll out new programs and features, help turn today’s workaround into tomorrow’s real, integrated part of the product.
What we’re looking for
• Currently pursuing or recently finished an MBA or related degree (product, business, engineering, or similar), or the real-world equivalent
• Strong written communication and the ability to get people across teams moving
• Ambiguity doesn’t rattle you where a rough prompt is enough for you to start running
• An AI-native instinct where you reach for AI tools to build and move faster by default (vibe-coding, research, analysis), not just experimenting with them on the side
• A structured thinker who can take a messy problem and break it into steps other people can actually execute
• Detail-oriented and organized, with a nose for a broken process
You don’t need to check every item here. If most of this sounds like you and you’re excited about the problem, we’d love to talk to you.
Nice to have:
• You’ve used and are familiar with tools product management like Notion, Mixpanel, or GitHub Boards
• Healthcare, insurance, or public benefits genuinely interest you
• You’ve dabbled in light coding or no-code/low-code automation
The Bioengineering Department is hiring an undergraduate student to assist with social media, communications and some data management.
