That’s Nice, But What’s the Job?

This is not a position for which sponsorship will be provided. Individuals with temporary visas or who need sponsorship now or in the future are not eligible for hire at this time. 

We are seeking a motivated Business Intelligence (BI) Intern to join our team. The intern will work closely with the BI team to analyze data, create reports, and provide insights that support strategic decision-making. This role is ideal for someone passionate about data analytics, problem-solving, and leveraging insights to drive business value.

Our Database Engineering Interns will be responsible for:

• Collaborate with the BI team to gather, clean, and analyze large datasets from various sources.
• Assist in developing and maintaining dashboards and reports using BI tools such as Tableau, Power BI, or Looker.

• Document BI processes and methodologies to ensure knowledge sharing and continuity.

So what are we looking for?

• Fantastic problem solver.  Your job is not only to find the problem, but more importantly, find the solution.
• Organization and time management skills in spades.  You’ll be handling multiple projects and deadlines that will require you to prioritize then re-prioritize then re-prioritize again.
• Agile in a fast-past environment. We move, and we move quickly.  Thriving in an environment that never stops, is a must.
• Intellectual curiosity.  Why? What? How?  Do you find yourself always wanting to learn more and broaden your knowledge base?  If so, this could be the role for you.
