Tail the CXO Fellowship Location: Chennai Type: Full-time Most internships give you a desk. This one gives you a seat at the table. For the bold, it’s your chance to see what startup life really takes. Enter Tail the CXO programme. Authenta is opening up Tail the CXO, a high-intensity, high-impact internship for ambitious students (and anyone else curious enough to apply) who want to experience the raw, unfiltered reality of building a startup. This isn’t about making coffee runs or shadowing quietly. You’ll be inside the room where decisions happen, and you’ll help shape them. What you’ll do: - Sit in on strategy sessions, product debates, customer calls, and investor meetings. - Pick a real problem (Product, GTM, AI Research, Ops, etc.) and own it. - Work side-by-side with the CEO and CXO team. - Demo what you built, solved, or improved at the end. Who we’re looking for: - Students (undergrad/grad) who are obsessed with startups and building things. - Self-starters who thrive in ambiguity and take ownership. - Strong communicators, quick learners, and critical thinkers. - Open to any background—engineering, business, design, policy. We believe in mindset > major. Note: If you are a first-generation graduate or from a minority community, we're extra excited to work with you. Why join? - Front-row seat to startup building. You get to execute your vision. - Mentorship from founders and CXOs, not mid-level managers. - Tangible ownership over work that actually matters. - A network for life; with us, and with everyone in our network as well. Programme details: - Location: In-person, Chennai (remote only as a privilege, not the default) - Duration: 6–12 weeks - Commitment: Full-time preferred (part-time may be considered) - Compensation: Stipend + performance-based bonus opportunities - Start Date: Rolling admissions How to apply: A one-page writeup on why you want to join (raw thoughts matter more than polished English), or a short video on why this excites you. DM me or email me your submission. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. We’re keeping this programme small and high-quality, so apply early. Email: praveenbenedict@authenta.ai
