Purpose of Job
Newegg is launching an Early Career Talent Program for the 2026 graduating class — a dedicated pathway for new and soon-to-be graduates to join Newegg in full-time hands-on roles across our Tech, Marketing, Design, and Business teams. This is not a passive learning rotation. You will be embedded in a real team, working on real projects, with real ownership from day one.
Notice: this is a 3-month temp to hire position with potential to extend.
Newegg's strongest performers tend to share one thing in common: they joined early in their careers, took ownership of real problems, and grew into broader scope over time. This program is how we plan to keep building that bench.
If you join, you should expect to be treated as a member of the team — not a guest. You'll be invited to team meetings, given a project you'll be accountable for, paired with a mentor, and reviewed on the same kinds of outcomes (just calibrated to experience level) that we use for full-time staff.
Candidates apply to the program broadly; final BU placement is determined during the interview process based on your background, interests, and current team needs. You'll be matched to one of the following four business units:
Business Unit
Focus Area
Sample Projects & Skills You'll Develop
Marketing (SEM / Paid Search)
Search Engine Marketing — Paid Search Strategy, Budgeting & Vendor Management
Own a slice of Newegg's paid search program end to end. Help create, launch, and optimize SEM campaigns across Google, Bing, Amazon Ads, and Reddit — keyword and audience research, ad copy, bid and budget pacing, A/B tests, and ongoing optimization. Support monthly and quarterly forecasting and budgeting for paid media spend, and track actuals against plan. Pull and interpret performance dashboards to find cost-optimization opportunities, then prepare vendor performance reports, budget summaries, and campaign readouts. Sit in on vendor and partner meetings, build the decks, and turn campaign data into a clear performance story for marketing leadership. This is our highest-priority 2026 Marketing opening.
Marketing (Content & Branding)
Performance Marketing, Influencer, Content & Brand
Support influencer marketing end to end — TikTok and YouTube sample seedings, creator onboarding and relationship management, content creation and livestream support, and campaign coordination. Help plan TikTok events, run monthly studio livestreams with vendor partners, support Lan Party livestreams, and contribute to paid/organic campaign analysis and category marketing for product launches.
Marketing (Social Media)
Social Media Marketing
Own end-to-end social execution: content planning, copywriting, and scheduling across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube/ YouTube Shorts, Reddit, and X — including scheduling video assets produced by our creative team. Design on-brand graphics, carousels, and templates in tools such as Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, or Canva. Manage day-to-day community engagement — comments, replies, and DMs. Turn engagement data and platform trends into actionable recommendations for brand and marketing leadership.
Business (Data Analysis)
FP/CS — Fraud Prevention, Customer Service & Operations Data Analytics
Analyze internal operations data and external customer data to identify key Fraud Prevention and Customer Service trends, root causes, and business issues — from chargebacks, order screening, and return or promo abuse to case volume, response time, and resolution rate. Develop data analysis, reporting, and problem-solving skills by turning insights into actionable recommendations for FP and CS leadership.
Business (Marketplace)
Marketplace — Third-Party Seller Development & Brand Partnerships
Support Newegg's Marketplace team in growing third-party seller and brand partnerships — build target lists, research categories and competitor assortment, size opportunities, and help pitch brand decisionmakers on Newegg's seller programs. Build and deliver partner-facing decks, own pipeline hygiene and follow-up, support onboarding of new sellers, and track results against growth targets. Develop commercial, presentation, and analytical skills in a quota-driven e-commerce environment.
Business (Merchandising)
Merchandising — Product Listing Optimization, Marketing Benchmarking & Email Promotions
Audit and improve product listing pages on Newegg.com — not just imagery and layout, but the substance: titles, specs, bullet content, comparison detail, and accuracy, which means learning the products themselves. Own recurring marketing benchmarking as the core of the role: track competitors’ merchandise, price, and promote the same categories, and turn that into a prioritized fix list and recommendations. Run ongoing competitive analysis, and support email marketing — campaign build and scheduling, promo copy and QA, and reporting on open, click, and conversion results against the promotion calendar.
Internal Audit
Internal Audit — ITGC, SOX Compliance & AI Audit Automation
Support the testing and documentation of IT General Controls (ITGC), IT Application Controls (ITAC), system-generated key reports, and business process controls across the company's enterprise systems (e.g., SAP, Active Directory, and related financial applications). Test security administration, change management, IT operations, and cyber security controls, and assist with business process control testing across financial cycles such as Revenue, AP, inventory, and financial close under SOX 404. Perform sample selection, evidence collection, and workpaper documentation per audit methodology and PCAOB/COSO frameworks. Help evaluate controls over AI-assisted processes and use AI tools to automate recurring testing — data extraction, sample selection, exception identification, and control attribute testing. Build deep expertise in SOX compliance and AI-driven audit automation.
Tech
Data Science & BI
Support business intelligence, data mining, statistical analysis, and forecasting projects — turning business requirements and complex data into actionable insights, and gaining hands-on experience in AI-enabled analytics, data warehousing, and cross-functional collaboration with business stakeholders and the Data Science/BI team.
