INTRODUCTION
Looking for a bright, hardworking, and independent individual to fill a one-year, committed, paid intern position immediately. The Strategic Technology Vendor Relations (STVR) team is responsible for engaging with Technology vendors to support the Church's contracting, services, and relationship needs. Interns are responsible for reviewing Low-Cost Software contracts, processing staff requests, and supporting other projects as deemed important for Intern support.
This position is primarily for educational or religious purposes and should be used to provide valuable educational experiences for the Intern. It is to give the Intern an opportunity to see how principles and practices learned in their educational institutions are applied in an actual work setting. Under general supervision, the Intern performs work as assigned by the department.
The hours worked must be during normal working hours, Monday through Friday. Hours worked will not exceed 20 hours per week. The intern will report directly to their hiring manager but may be involved in projects with multiple team members. This internship position represents a unique and exciting opportunity to work with highly skilled professionals and contribute to the Lord's work in a meaningful way. The intern would be part of an innovative, spiritually driven, and motivated team and culture. The internship will provide experience with Technology contracting and procurement.
LOCATION
The position is working with the STVR team with offices located at the Church Office Building in Salt Lake City, UT or the Riverton Office Building in Riverton, UT. The intern’s working location is anticipated to be at the Riverton Office Building.
Responsibilities
Responsibilities may vary by assignment depending on department and need. The intern receives assignments from STVR team members. Work is reviewed by the supervisor and, at times, by the team manager.
Interns are expected to do the following:
- Meet rigid and challenging deadlines
- Work in harmony with other people
- Follow explicit direction on each assignment
- Give full attention to details and be a quick learner
- Demonstrate independence in working on given assignments, yet proactive in seeking direction and assignments from team members
- Demonstrate a willingness to learn and master new processes and systems
- Exercise sound judgment of Church doctrine, organization, policy and protocol
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
Paid Interns are qualified while enrolled in an educational institution and for one year following graduation.
Church employees find joy and satisfaction in using their unique talents and abilities to further the Lord’s work. From the IT professional who develops an app that sends the gospel message worldwide, to the facilities manager who maintains our buildings—giving Church members places to worship, teach, learn, and receive sacred ordinances—our employees seek innovative ways to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the world. They are literally working in His kingdom.
Only members of the Church who are worthy of a temple recommend qualify for employment. Apart from this, the Church is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate in its employment decisions on any basis that would violate U.S. or local law.

Get Access To All JobsDeveloper Relations Engineer CPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Developer Relations Engineer role qualify for CPT authorization?
Yes, if your program includes coursework in software engineering, computer science, or technical communication and the job duties directly apply those skills. DevRel roles typically involve API integration, developer tooling, and technical documentation, all of which map to standard CS and software engineering curricula. Bring the full job description to your DSO so they can verify the curricular connection and update your I-20.
Can I do CPT for a DevRel role at a startup without a formal HR department?
Yes, but you're responsible for getting a written offer letter with your start date, end date, employer name, and a duties description before your DSO can authorize CPT. Startups often skip formal offer letter templates, so ask directly for a letter on company letterhead. Your DSO can't update your I-20 without those specifics, regardless of company size.
How do I find Developer Relations Engineer jobs that are open to CPT students?
Search Migrate Mate, which filters for employers with verified work-authorization hiring history in technical roles. Many DevRel postings don't explicitly mention CPT, so focus on roles at companies running active developer programs or open-source initiatives, those teams are most familiar with authorizing international students and least likely to withdraw an offer over CPT paperwork.
Does a DevRel CPT role count toward STEM OPT eligibility later?
CPT authorization itself doesn't affect STEM OPT eligibility, what matters is your STEM-designated degree program and whether your OPT employer is enrolled in E-Verify. Full-time CPT totaling 12 or more cumulative months does eliminate standard OPT eligibility, but it doesn't affect the STEM extension separately. Confirm your cumulative CPT hours with your DSO before accepting a full-time DevRel position.
What happens if my CPT authorization lists the wrong job title or employer name?
Your I-20 must match your actual employer and role exactly. If you start work with a mismatched I-20, your CPT authorization is invalid, which puts your F-1 status at risk. Contact your DSO immediately if anything changes after authorization, including a legal entity name difference between the team you interviewed with and the employer of record on your paycheck.
