About LISNR

LISNR powers contactless, secure data transmission using ultrasonic audio. We help brands deliver seamless, proximity-based customer experiences across mobility, fintech, and retail environments. Backed by Intel, Synchrony, and Visa, LISNR is scaling globally and expanding our corporate development function to support strategic growth initiatives, including partnerships, investments, and long-term market expansion.

Role Summary

We are seeking a Corporate Development Intern with strong analytical, financial modeling, and strategic research capabilities. You’ll work directly with leadership to analyze potential growth opportunities, evaluate market dynamics, and assist with internal decision-making that shapes our roadmap. This internship is ideal for a graduate student (or exceptional undergrad) seeking hands-on experience in corporate development, venture strategy, or strategic finance within a high-growth tech company.

This is not a shadowing role — you’ll build actual models, present strategic findings, and contribute to the foundational materials that support investment and partnership decisions.

What You’ll Do

  • Conduct market and competitive research to identify emerging trends, potential partnerships, and whitespace opportunities across LISNR’s core and adjacent verticals.

  • Build or support financial models, including DCFs, revenue forecasts, TAM/SAM/SOM sizing, and customer/unit economics frameworks.

  • Analyze acquisition targets, partner performance metrics, and potential commercial collaborations.

  • Draft strategic insights in investment memos, due diligence reports, and benchmarking analyses to support decision-making.

  • Partner cross-functionally with Product, Commercial, and Finance teams to gather inputs and shape proposals.

  • Evaluate customer acquisition cost (CAC), lifetime value (CLTV), gross margin by segment, and other key SaaS performance indicators.

  • Work independently with regular check-ins to iterate on projects and present findings in a clear, structured format.

Required Qualifications

  • Currently pursuing (or recently completed) a Master’s in Business Administration, Finance, Strategy, or a related field. High-performing undergrads with strong modeling capabilities will be considered.

  • Proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets, PowerPoint, and financial modeling techniques (DCF, cap tables, cohort modeling, revenue forecasting, etc.).

  • Experience conducting market research, trend analysis, and synthesizing strategic insights.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills — you must be able to build decks, draft memos, and present findings to executive stakeholders.

  • Resourceful and self-directed — able to work independently while establishing clear check-ins and asking the right questions as you build deliverables.

Preferred / Bonus Skills

  • Familiarity with tools such as CapIQ, PitchBook, SQL, Tableau, or similar platforms.

  • Prior experience in corporate development, VC/PE, investment banking, or strategic finance.

  • Exposure to SaaS metrics, customer lifetime value analysis, or unit economics.

  • Interest in proximity technology, fintech innovation, or embedded platforms.

Why This Internship?

  • High-impact, real work: You won’t just observe — your models and insights will shape decisions.

  • Executive visibility: You’ll collaborate directly with our CEO and leadership team.

  • Strategic exposure: Gain hands-on experience with partnerships, GTM planning, and growth modeling.

  • Portfolio building: Leave with presentation decks, models, and research you can showcase.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
