Overview
Tactile Medical is offering internship opportunities for students who are seeking to accelerate their professional experience and career trajectory. Join a driven organization that is a compassionate leader in helping people living with chronic illnesses live better lives with at home therapy devices.
In this 11-week internship program, our interns will start out in our corporate headquarters campus in Minneapolis, MN for the first three days to learn from leaders across the entire organization. Our leaders will walk through how each of Tactile's collaborative teams identify patients, provide them with care, and ensure their lives are improved. We will provide an exclusively transparent view on how we at Tactile embrace change by proactively innovating our products, processes, and challenging each other.
After the first three days on campus, each intern is paired with a mentor and team to dive into everyone's specialized internship focus. Our interns will be given an authentic experience by working through real professional scenarios and contributing to meaningful projects. On the final day, our interns will return to campus to celebrate their accomplishments and reflect on how they made a direct impact on helping people live a better quality of life.
