This Summer Associate will be supporting the Debit Card Analytics & Strategy team, focusing on the Navy Federal Debit Card product.

  • Developing new and/or streamline existing KPls and support automated dashboards/reporting

The Summer Associate Program is a 12-week internship program beginning in May 2025 and ending in August 2025. Students will work on impactful projects and meaningful work during their internship.
