What is a Data Science Internship job?

A Data Science Internship is a temporary position designed to provide hands-on experience in data analysis, machine learning, and statistical modeling. Interns typically work with large datasets, clean and preprocess data, build models, and generate insights to support business decisions. They may also collaborate with data scientists, engineers, and business teams to solve real-world problems. This role helps develop technical skills in Python, SQL, and data visualization while gaining industry exposure.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Data Science Internship position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Data Science Intern, you need a solid understanding of statistics, data analysis, and programming languages such as Python or R, often supported by progress towards a degree in a quantitative field. Familiarity with tools like SQL, machine learning libraries (e.g., scikit-learn, TensorFlow), and data visualization platforms (e.g., Tableau, Power BI) is highly valued. Strong problem-solving skills, eagerness to learn, and effective communication are essential soft skills for this role. These abilities are crucial for drawing insights from data, collaborating with technical and non-technical colleagues, and contributing meaningfully to projects.

What types of projects or tasks can I expect to work on during a Data Science Internship?

As a Data Science Intern, you may be involved in projects such as analyzing datasets to uncover trends, building and testing predictive models, or creating visual reports to help stakeholders understand key findings. Interns often support ongoing research, assist with data cleaning and preprocessing, and collaborate on team projects under the guidance of experienced data scientists. Depending on the company's focus, you might also contribute to deploying models or automating data pipelines. These tasks are designed to give you practical experience with real-world data challenges and help develop your technical and analytical skills.

Job description

POSITION SUMMARYJoin the Insight Engineering team for Summer 2026, starting May 2026. This internship is dedicated to applied research and development in data science and Generative AI - with a particular focus on agentic systems that reason over enterprise data.
You will work alongside the foundation team that is standing up our Snowflake-anchored data platform, semantic layer, and KPI certification discipline. Your role is the R&D wedge: prototyping the AI capabilities that will eventually be embedded into IGEN products and shared as certified, governed insight with clients and partners.
This is not a ticket-queue internship. You will own experiments end to end - framing the question, building the prototype, evaluating it honestly, and writing up what you learned so the team can decide what to productize.
This internship will be located onsite at our Corporate Headquarters [222 W College Avenue, Appleton, WI 54911]. This intern will sit inside the Insight Engineering squad alongside the Sr. Data Engineer and BI Engineer, and will partner with product squads where R&D output intersects their roadmap.JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

WhatYou'llWork On

Project scope is set at the start of the internship based on team priorities and your strengths, but representative R&D tracks include:

GenAI Agentic Systems

  • Prototype agentsthat answer business questions by reasoning over certified KPIs, semantic models, and operational data - not by guessing.

  • Build retrieval-augmented pipelinesover structured warehouse data and unstructured documents (regulatory content, internal documentation, ticket history).

  • Explore tool-use patternswhere an LLM orchestrates SQL generation, validation against the semantic layer, and result interpretation - with governance and lineage preserved.

  • Evaluate model behavior rigorously- accuracy, hallucination rates, latency, cost - and document trade-offs.

Data Science & Applied ML

  • Develop and test modelsagainst governed datasets in Snowflake - forecasting, classification, anomaly detection, or entity resolution depending on the active research question.

  • Engineer featuresthat could land in a future feature store, with attention to lineage, reproducibility, and certified inputs.

  • Run experimentsusing Snowflake Cortex AI (native LLM and ML functions in SQL), Python notebooks, and otherappropriate tooling.

Research Communication

  • Write up findingsin a way the engineering team, product partners, and SLT can consume - what was tried, what worked, whatdidn't, and what to do next.

  • Demo prototypesto the Insight Engineering team and contribute to the decision of whether a capability is ready to move from R&D into the platform roadmap.

WhatYou'llLearn

  • How a real data platform gets built: ingest, normalization, semantic layer, certification, governance - not just the demo version.

  • How GenAI capabilities are evaluated and made production-credible in an enterprise context where hallucination is not an acceptable failure mode.

  • How insight engineering treats AI as a deliverable that must be owned, named, dated, and versioned - the same discipline as code.

  • How research output becomes product input: the path from prototype to roadmap to revenue.

Why This Internship

Most data internships ask you to fix dashboards or clean a backlog. This one asks you to figure out something the team doesn't yet know how to do - then teach us what you learned. The work you do this summer will directly inform which AI capabilities IGEN builds into the platform, into our products, and eventually into a productized data and insights revenue stream.

If you want to leave an internship with shipped prototypes, real evaluation data, and a written record of research that influenced a roadmap - this is the role.

QUALIFICATIONS

What You Need for This Position

  • Pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Statistics, Applied Math, Machine Learning, or a related quantitative field.

  • Working proficiency in Python, including common data and ML libraries (pandas, scikit-learn, NumPy).

  • Basic SQL fluency - you can write queries, read execution plans casually, and understand joins, aggregations, and CTEs.

  • Exposure to LLMs or GenAI tooling - coursework, side projects, or hands-on use of APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, open-weight models, LangChain/LlamaIndex, or equivalents). You do not need production experience; you need genuine curiosity and a portfolio of attempts.

  • Comfort with ambiguity. R&D problems are not specced like feature tickets. You will need to scope your own work, decide when an experiment is done, and communicate trade-offs clearly.

  • Strong written communication. Findings the team can't read are findings the team can't use.

Bonus Points

  • Hands-on experience with agentic frameworks (tool use, function calling, multi-step reasoning, ReAct-style loops).

  • Familiarity with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), vector databases, embeddings, and evaluation methods for LLM outputs.

  • Exposure to Snowflake, dbt, or modern data warehouse tooling - Cortex AI experience is a clear plus.

  • Experience with Power BI or other BI/visualization tools.

  • MLOps awareness - experiment tracking (MLflow, Weights & Biases), model evaluation harnesses, reproducibility practices.

  • A public artifact - GitHub repo, blog post, paper, hackathon submission - that shows how you think when you build something.
