[Hiring] AI & Digital Co-Op @Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine

Role Description

We are seeking a motivated, early-career Co-Op student to join our Oncology Global Medical Affairs (GMAF) team, supporting the operationalization and adoption of artificial intelligence, digital tools, and process innovation across the function. This is a hands-on developmental opportunity for a curious, digitally fluent student who is eager to learn how AI and digital ways of working can accelerate medical excellence in oncology.

In this role, you will work in a fully remote, collaborative environment alongside cross-functional stakeholders to help teams work faster, more effectively, and in a compliant, insight-driven way. You will contribute across three connected areas:

• AI solutions and automation
• Medical knowledge and insights
• Digital engagement and content intelligence

Key Responsibilities

• AI Solutions & Automation
  • Support the practical application of AI and productivity tools — with a core focus on Microsoft Copilot — to improve everyday workflows and operational efficiency.
  • Help design, build, and test lightweight AI agents and applications, including Microsoft Copilot Studio, turning manual tasks and repeated requests into reusable, low-code solutions.
  • Help build and maintain prompt libraries, use-case repositories, and best-practice documentation that enable teams to adopt AI with confidence.
  • Assist with testing, documenting, and refining AI-supported workflows, and help identify opportunities to automate or streamline manual tasks, processes, and operations.
• Medical Knowledge & Insights
  • Organize, summarize, and structure scientific and medical information to make it easier to find, share, and act on.
  • Support knowledge-management activities, including AI-assisted search, content summarization, and preparation of insight summaries.
  • Help ensure information is accurate, well organized, and consistently presented across the team.
• Digital Engagement & Content Intelligence
  • Support digital engagement, analytics, and content-intelligence activities across omnichannel approaches, including content tagging, reporting, and KPI tracking.
  • Help define, track, and report KPIs, translating digital data into clear insights that stakeholders can use to make decisions.
  • Contribute to content coordination and continuous improvement of digital engagement approaches.
• Enablement, Rollout & Change Management
  • Support the rollout and scaling of AI tools and digital ways of working, helping plan and coordinate adoption activities.
  • Assist with change-management and upskilling initiatives — preparing training materials, guides, and communications that help teams embrace new tools.
  • Provide project-management support across initiatives, tracking timelines, action items, and deliverables.
• Ways of Working
  • Collaborate across functions and geographies in a remote environment, maintaining clear ownership of assigned deliverables.
  • Participate in regular check-ins, agile project support, and cross-functional collaboration.
  • Apply AI responsibly, following J&J governance, compliance, and appropriate-use guidelines in all activities.

• Be enrolled in an accredited college/institution pursuing a Bachelor's, Master's degree or PhD in any discipline. Interest in healthcare, life sciences, technology, analytics, or communications is an asset.
• Fantastic oral and written communication skills, with confidence working in a remote, collaborative setting.

• Be authorized to work in Canada without current or future sponsorship requirements.
• Remain actively enrolled in their academic program throughout the entire internship period.

• Proactive, solution-seeking approach, with comfort working in ambiguous spaces and initiative to move ideas forward.
• Strong organizational and project-management skills, with ability to manage multiple tasks, timelines, and follow-ups with guidance from team leads.
• High comfort learning and using new digital tools, collaboration platforms, and AI technologies.
• Curiosity and confidence about using artificial intelligence and a self-directed approach to learning and problem solving.
• Ability to work independently and reliably in a fully remote environment while escalating appropriately when needed.
• Hands-on experience building AI agents, skills, or applications — ideally in Microsoft Copilot Studio or comparable low-code/application-build platforms.
• Exposure to change management, rollout or adoption initiatives, KPI tracking, or omnichannel and digital engagement approaches.
• Prior internship, academic project, hackathon, or student-leadership experience with digital or AI tools preferred but not required.
