Role:

Splunk is looking for interns for Summer 2023! As a Data Scientist/ Product Analyst intern to provide operational metrics and analysis around product adoption and success, you will work on a real project (or a few) and have an opportunity to enjoy our dynamic, startup-like environment.

You will experience Splunking and what defines our culture while honing the skills which separate our development teams from others. Working to support internal and external customer needs, you will collaborate with multi-functional teams, receive mentorship, and gain insight into our values-driven process. Our goal is both to support your growth and development while empowering you for a successful start to your career.

In this role, you will collaborate with diverse partners to help them make effective, data driven, and strategic decisions around how to improve our products, what features to prioritize, and how to increase customer engagement. You will do a short term project that will contribute to real-life improvements with high impact. Looking for an internship that helps you grow both business and technical skills? This is the right role for you.

You will ask the right questions about the data – what data is collected, how does it reflect business and technology goals, and what follow-up actions are warranted. You will purposefully address data quality issues and look for opportunities to align both data and metrics collected/used across our product line. You will partner with product leadership to translate business semantics into accurate math and implement the reporting using multiple tools.

You will have the opportunity to:

• Craft reports and dashboards for product leadership on product usage, uptake, engagement
• Work with product managers to obtain quantitative measures for uptake and engagement of various products
• Develop quantitative metrics and analytical support for measuring product and data quality
• Establish and nurture partners on analytics performed against product-generated data
• Help build an open, unbiased, evidence-based culture throughout the organization

Basic Requirements:

• Actively pursuing a Bachelor’s, Master’s, MBA or PhD in Computer Science, Informatics, Statistics, Data Science, Mathematics or a related technical field, and a strong record of academic achievement.
• Applicants should have a minimum of one quarter/semester remaining in their studies after their internship concludes.
• The Splunk internship program runs for 12 consecutive weeks with start dates between May and June 2023. Applicants should be available to participate full-time (40 hours/week) in an internship during this time.

Preferred Requirements:

• You possess superb interpersonal and communication skills
• You have strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• You are willing to explore open-ended questions and present compelling arguments using data
• You know how to use Excel, SQL, and visualization tools such as Tableau
• You can apply statistics to real-life business problems
• You can articulate a business case and dissect the value proposition of a product
• You have previous internship in a related field
• Bonus if you can build searches and dashboards in Splunk

What We Offer You:

• A fun and collaborative environment with many exciting events from interacting with other interns to conversations with our executive leadership team.
• A constant stream of new things for you to learn. We’re always expanding into new areas, bringing in open source projects and contributing back, and exploring new technologies.
• A set of exceptionally talented and dedicated peers
• Growth and mentorship. We believe in growing engineers through ownership and leadership opportunities. We also believe mentors help both sides of the equation.
• A stable, collaborative and supportive work environment.

We value diversity at our company. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, or any other applicable legally protected characteristics in the location in which the candidate is applying.
