Finance Intern

At Lumos Fiber, we’re redefining connectivity with cutting-edge fiber-optic internet solutions. In 2026, we’re excited to launch another year of our Internship Program.

Lumos is looking for a Finance Intern! If you have a background in finance/accounting or if you are interested in learning about implementing AI tools to help streamline financial reporting processes & automating data extraction, we’d love to hear from you!

This program gives students hands-on experience, professional mentorship, and the chance to work on projects that shape the future of technology and communications. Interns will collaborate with our teams, learn practical skills, and gain insight into the fiber-optic industry while contributing to meaningful work.

We’re proud to continue this program and look forward to welcoming another group of talented students to Lumos Fiber!

Company Summary:

Lumos is on a mission to deliver lightning-fast, 100% Fiber Optic internet to the communities that need it most. After the merger of Lumos Networks and North State in 2022, we quickly rose to become a leading fiber internet provider. And as of April 1, 2025, we’ve joined forces with T-Mobile to launch T-Fiber—a joint venture that blends Lumos’ infrastructure expertise with T-Mobile’s national reach to bring fiber to more homes than ever before.

We currently connect over 475,000 homes, businesses, and multi-family buildings across nine states in the East and Midwest. With major growth in markets like Ohio, Alabama, Florida, and Georgia—and a shared goal of reaching 12 to 15 million homes by 2030—Lumos is playing a vital role in closing the digital divide.
