Operations Intern at Careem

Careem is building the Everything App for the greater Middle East — making it easy to move around, order food and groceries, manage payments, and more. Our purpose is simple: to simplify and improve people’s lives and build an awesome organisation that inspires.
Since 2012, Careem has enabled earnings for over 2.5 million Captains, simplified the lives of more than 70 million customers, and built a platform where the region’s best talent and entrepreneurs thrive. We operate in 70+ cities across 10 countries, from Morocco to Pakistan.

We’re now entering our next chapter — one powered by AI. We’re looking for AI talent: curious problem-solvers who know how to apply AI to build tools, automate workflows, and create real impact. Whether it’s streamlining operations, enhancing customer experience, or reimagining internal systems — we want people who can make Careem work smarter and move faster.

About the Role
Careem is expanding its super app offering in KSA with the launch of Careem DineOut – a Food & Beverage (F&B) discovery engine helping customers explore Riyadh’s top restaurants and save when dining in. We’re on a mission to be the go-to platform for dining in the city, adding features like reservations and loyalty. As an Operations Intern, you will play a hands-on role in supporting day-to-day execution, ensuring our restaurant partners are onboarded smoothly and that backend processes run like clockwork. This is a high-impact internship ideal for someone eager to learn the ins and outs of operations in a fast-paced tech company.
