Intern Product Management - Customer-Facing Sales Design System (Mandatory Internship)

Who we are

Workbench is the central design system behind Mercedes-Benz customer-facing sales websites worldwide and beyond. It is the brand-approved single source of compliant digital brand and design guidelines for more than 50 touchpoints across Mercedes-Benz, Mercedes-AMG, and Mercedes-Maybach, ranging from component libraries and design tokens to documentation and governance. Our team sits in the Solution Management and Architecture department of MB.OC (Mercedes-Benz Omnichannel) and works daily with designers, developers, architects, and brand stakeholders across the globe.

Following the successful global go-live of our latest Digital Design version in September this year, we are shaping the next chapter\: scaling adoption to new touchpoints, modernizing our documentation platform, and making the design system readable and usable by AI tools.

Your tasks\:

• Support the Product Manager in steering the Workbench product, including product direction activities, request handovers to other product teams, roadmap planning, budget management, stakeholder management, and coordination of design teams
• Prepare content for management, markets, and stakeholders (presentations, product one-pagers, release and go-live communications, newsletters)
• Track and visualize adoption\: tenant onboarding status, usage and impact metrics, and reporting for management
• Support tenant and stakeholder management (meeting preparation, minutes, follow-ups, and maintenance of our stakeholder overview)
• Contribute to our AI-readiness initiative (research, structuring, and testing of machine-readable design system content)
• Benchmark and research how other design systems and companies address adoption, governance, and documentation
• Help prepare and facilitate team formats such as workshops, weekly calls, and market broadcasts
• Provide ad hoc support to the wider team on Solution Management topics across the Mercedes-Benz Omnichannel portfolio

What we offer\:

• Real responsibility for your own topics within a product that is live in every Mercedes-Benz market
• Deep insight into how a global design system, an agile organization (SAFe), and brand governance work in practice
• Exposure to a broad stakeholder network ranging from designers and engineers to markets and senior management
• Close mentoring by the Workbench Product Manager and a team that works internationally and hands-on

The activity can begin from December 2026.
