Testing web tools across different browsers and devices to ensure a reliable experience for our team members and clients.
Organizing and updating technical documentation to ensure that our systems remain manageable as the firm takes on new engagements.
Supporting the integration of data from external market sources into our internal visualization tools.
Researching modern web components or plugins that can simplify how we present scenario work to sovereign entities and chief executives.
Participating in brief technical reviews to discuss the progress of site updates and ensure they meet the firm's professional standards.
What you bring
Familiarity with core web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, and a basic understanding of JavaScript.
Strong attention to detail, particularly regarding visual layout, typography, and the accuracy of technical implementation.
A logical approach to problem solving and the ability to break down a technical requirement into manageable steps.
Clear communication skills and the ability to explain technical constraints to partners who focus on commercial outcomes.
Commercial curiosity and an interest in learning how technology supports high-stakes investment decisions and partnership negotiations.
The discipline to work effectively in a fully remote environment while staying organized and meeting project timelines.
A basic understanding of version control concepts is helpful, though we will provide guidance on our specific workflows.
Willingness to adapt your technical style to match the direct and grounded voice of the firm.
What we offer
A fully remote work arrangement that offers flexibility and rewards focused, independent work.
Direct exposure to how technical tools are used at the highest levels of commercial advisory and sovereign investment.
The opportunity to work in a senior-led environment where your contributions have a clear and direct purpose.
Professional development through regular feedback from experienced partners who value commercial reality over corporate fluff.
This is a paid internship position with a compensation package that is competitive for the role and the market.
Working at Gulf Associates Gulf Associates operates on a different logic than most global consultancies. We focus on the ground reality of how deals are made and how regulators behave. Our work is not about producing thick reports that sit on a shelf: it is about providing a position that a client can actually act on. This mindset of utility and directness extends to our technology. We do not build complex features for their own sake. Instead, we build tools that help our team understand competitor behavior and capital deployment. We are a small firm by design, which means we hold a limited number of active engagements to ensure our partners stay involved in every detail. As an intern, you will be expected to share this focus on outcomes. We value honesty, clear thinking, and the ability to deliver results without the need for constant oversight. This environment is best suited for someone who is self-directed and interested in the intersection of technology and commercial strategy.
