Please send an email to Tzvi@LocalGrownSalads.com to apply

We have a number of Projects all run using Agile Project Management.

We need Project Managers to take on the various roles within the Agile Structure.

For example, we have created an LGS Ecosystem which consists of Postgres databases, Arduino Hardware, Grow Units and Grow Rooms to create an Indoor Vertical Farming environment.

Our interns will be working together in teams that include hardware engineers, science analysts, and marketing folks. Giving everyone the whole perspective on how broad a company is.

During this internship, students are treated as equals. We value their opinions and ask them to present their opinions to discuss the topics and potentially adapt our marketing plan accordingly. The main benefit of seeing all stages of development is giving interns the freedom to develop their skill set.

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

Some example deliverables that students can complete may include, but are not limited to:

  • Creation/improving the database
  • Creation/improving the apps
  • Instruction video of how to use the software

The roles require a commitment of 20 Hours a week for at least 8 weeks.Skills students will develop:

  • Project management
  • Communication in a virtual environment
  • Familiarity with tools like Jira and AWS
  • Taking responsibility
  • Presentation skills for a business environment.
How will you support learners in completing the project?

Daily mentorship
