You will gain hands-on experience across the full data lifecycle from ingestion and transformation to AI-powered insights and workflow automation.

Key Responsibilities:

• Build and maintain data pipelines to ingest, transform, and integrate structured and unstructured data from multiple sources

• Develop curated datasets and data models that support analytics and AI use cases

• Apply data engineering principles to clean, enrich, and validate datasets, including implementing basic data quality checks

• Support the development of AI/GenAI prototypes, such as natural language query interfaces, insight generation, or retrieval-based solutions

• Contribute to the design of agentic workflows that automate repeatable tasks and enhance business processes

• Document data flows, metadata, and lineage to support transparency, governance, and reproducibility

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand business problems and translate them into data and AI solutions

• Assist in building dashboards, notebooks, or APIs to enable consumption of data products

• Participate in project discussions and provide updates on progress, findings, and outcomes

• Support the preparation of demo materials and final deliverables, including architecture diagrams and solution summaries

• Other duties as assigned by the Central Analytics and COO AI Program teams

Who are you?

• Currently enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's degree program in Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with an interest in data and AI

• Foundational knowledge of programming (e.g., Python, SQL)

• Understanding of basic data concepts such as data pipelines, data modeling, or ETL/ELT processes is a plus

• Interest or exposure to cloud platforms, analytics tools, or data visualization tools (e.g., Power BI) is a plus

• Curiosity about AI/GenAI and how it can be applied to real-world business problems

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment

• Attention to detail and commitment to delivering high-quality work

This is an excellent opportunity for a student looking to gain hands-on experience in data engineering and AI within a dynamic and growing organization.
