The company provides end-to-end advertising solutions for businesses to reach, monetize and grow their global audiences.

At AppLovin, we are intentional about the team and culture we are building, seeking candidates who are outstanding in their own right and also demonstrate their support of others.</span></p></div><p><span style="color:#1d1c1d">At AppLovin, we believe the future of social platforms isn't just about entertainment — it's about meaningful value exchange. We are building a next-generation global content platform that empowers people to turn real-life experiences into inspiring, useful stories that help others grow.

This isn't another short-form video app.

It's a platform where authentic sharing matters, where people from diverse backgrounds and life stages can contribute, find content they actually need, and be rewarded for the value they create.<br>Backed by AppLovin's world-class technology, data capabilities, and global reach, we are a small, high-caliber founding team building this from the ground up — and we're looking for a Product Manager Intern for Summer 2027 who wants to be part of it from the earliest days.<br><br><b>About the Team</b><br>Our product team sits at the intersection of user behaviour, content ecosystems, and data.

We debate ideas rigorously, take ownership seriously, and move with startup speed. As a PM intern, you won't be running meeting notes or maintaining backlogs.

You'll be embedded in a real product area — user growth, content contribution, discovery, or creator incentives — working alongside PMs, engineers, and designers on problems that directly shape the platform's trajectory.<br><br><b>About Gist</b><br>Gist is a new social media platform for people who want substance — practical, thoughtful content that spans philosophy debates, city-specific recommendations, seasonal gift guides, and wellness tips.

Across categories like travel, food, career, and family, we describe it as "a handbook for the curious."<br>Gist is built by AppLovin Corporation — a company that hit $5.3B in revenue last year and sits alongside Google and Meta as one of the world's leading ad tech platforms. Fortune recognizes AppLovin as one of the Best Workplaces in the Bay Area, and the company has been a Certified Great Place to Work for the last four years (2021–2024).<br><br><b>What You'll Do</b></span></p><ul><li style="color:#1d1c1d !
