A lot of people think inventing is easy. You see those guys like Billy Mays screaming on tv, and you think to yourself, “I could have thought of that.” Believe it or not, even those stupid infomercial products aren’t easy to come up with, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the world of invention. Inventing a new product is a long, arduous process that requires a ton of resources. Invention Machine is a Boston based software developer that “drives sustainable innovation by enabling global organizations to consistently generate breakthrough ideas that accelerate product development.” It’s hard for a non-inventor to understand how software can help the inventing process, but judging from the number of large corporations that are using Invention Machine’s software, there’s something there.
Since Invention Machine has a corporate video that goes into more detail about what they do, I’m going to give you a little break from reading.
If you head over to Invention Machine’s Internships page, you’ll see that they have three internship opportunities available right now. They’re in Customer Marketing, Demand Generation, and Market Strategy. They have downloadable Word documents on the Internships page with a lot more detail about each of the positions. There’s no mention of whether the positions are paid, but they are full-time, which often means paid. These are Summer positions, so you should apply as soon as possible by sending a cover letter and resume to jobs@invention-machine.com.
