Marketing Summer Internship – AI Agents for Workflow Orchestration: Northwestern

At CDW, we make it happen, together. Trust, connection, and commitment are at the heart of how we work together to deliver for our customers. It’s why we’re coworkers, not just employees. CDW Marketing is building the next generation of B2B marketing powered by AI, insight, creativity, and measurable performance. We are looking for exceptional undergraduate students to join a high‑impact summer internship program designed to bring fresh perspectives, deliver real business value, and build a strong pipeline of future marketing talent for CDW. This internship is intended for ambitious students who want to combine technology, problem solving, and business thinking in a fast‑moving marketing environment. Rather than rotating across unrelated assignments, each intern will work deeply within the defined focus area listed in the job title while collaborating cross‑functionally across the broader marketing organization. What You’ll Do Design, prompt, test, and document AI agents or copilots that support campaign planning, intake, briefing, routing, QA, and reporting workflows. Help build reusable prompt libraries, operating playbooks, and governance standards that enable marketers to work faster and more consistently. Partner with campaign, operations, and analytics teams to identify high‑value automation opportunities that can scale across the organization. Work on high‑priority summer initiatives that support real CDW marketing outcomes, not simulated assignments. Work directly with a Director in Marketing and partner with cross‑functional stakeholders depending on the chosen track. Use AI tools, research, creative development, or analytics to improve how CDW plans, creates, measures, and optimizes marketing work. Translate ideas into outputs such as prototypes, content, videos, dashboards, insights, recommendations, and documented playbooks.
