TL;DR: This is a 12-week summer 2027 internship on the Tech Sourcing team in Coinbase's Source to Pay (S2P) group, covering software, SaaS, AI, and cloud spend. You'll run analysis projects that turn vendor and renewal data into clear recommendations, and support live sourcing work.

- Support RFP and RFQ development and proposal evaluation, and keep desktop procedures and internal documentation accurate.
