Job Description:
Role Summary
The data science (DS) internship at Crowe follows the firmwide calendar, approximately overlapping the academic summer. DS interns will have a designated data scientist mentor and will spend the majority of their time working on a data science project overseen by that mentor. The expectation is that at the end of the internship, functional and demonstrable progress has been made in a way that can be integrated into the functional portfolio of the team.
Important: the data science internship does not necessarily transition to a full-time role at the end of the period. Depending on team need, firm budget, and fit, interns should not expect their time to conclude with an offer.
Here are some example projects that may be prioritized for an internship:
Anomaly detection using deep neural networks
Numerical optimization applied to problems in manufacturing
Personal identifiable information (PII) and personal health information (PHI) detection in natural language
Areas of Focus
The data science internship is intended to expose the intern to what it means to do data science on a team in an enterprise setting. To that end, there are three major components with which an intern should expect to engage.
Modeling
Understanding how to frame business problems as data science problems
Navigating the full data science lifecycle: research and exploration, development, deployment, support
Using correct model selection and training procedures to prevent common modeling errors
Creating reasonable test scenarios and diagnostic measures
Software Development
Writing high quality Python (readable, reusable, modular, and well-abstracted code)
Using Linux, the terminal, and other core development tools
Understanding source control (git), containerization (docker) and deployment technologies (cicd/k8s)
Participating in code reviews
Business Value and Processes
Contributing to team development processes and agile/scrum rituals
Helping to clarify and prioritize work, define success criteria, and own work item completion
Applying all relevant change management controls for risk and compliance policies
Presenting work clearly to technical and non-technical audiences
Relevant majors and areas of expertise
Data Science
Computer Science
Mathematics
Natural or Social Sciences
Relevant additional backgrounds also considered
