In short

We are seeking a curious Data Science Intern to join our applied analytics team in Madrid. You will collaborate with experienced professionals on model development, experiment design, and end-to-end workflows, learning production-aware practices like version control and containerization.

Responsibilities

  • Translate business problems into measurable data questions and define evaluation criteria.
  • Prepare and engineer features from structured and unstructured sources; write clear, reproducible data pipelines and SQL queries.
  • Implement, train, and evaluate models (regression, classification, clustering, simple neural networks).
  • Develop notebooks and modular Python code with unit tests and documentation.
  • Help package work for reproducibility (Git, virtual environments, Docker basics).
  • Produce clear visualizations and model summaries to communicate results and limitations.
  • Collaborate in code reviews, experiment tracking, and model validation.
  • Learn essentials of MLOps (model versioning, basic deployment concepts).

Requirements

  • Currently enrolled in or recently graduated from Data Science, Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Engineering, or related field.
  • Solid grounding in statistics, basic probability, and core machine learning concepts.
  • Proficient in Python and familiar with common libraries (pandas, numpy).
  • Experience with Jupyter notebooks and at least one ML library (scikit-learn required).
  • Comfortable writing SQL for data extraction and basic familiarity with data ingestion/ETL concepts.
  • Basic data visualization skills (matplotlib, seaborn, or equivalent).
  • Familiarity with Git for version control.

Desired Qualifications

  • Exposure to PyTorch or TensorFlow is a plus.
  • Basic familiarity with containerization (Docker) and cloud concepts (AWS/GCP/Azure) is advantageous.
  • Coursework or projects demonstrating model evaluation, cross-validation, hyperparameter search, or simple deep learning.
  • Exposure to experiment tracking tools, collaborative development (code reviews), or basic model deployment workflows.
  • Strong communication skills and eagerness to adopt software engineering best practices.

Benefits

  • Mentorship from experienced data scientists and engineers.
  • Hands-on work on end-to-end projects with real datasets and measurable business impact.
  • Opportunity to learn production-aware data science practices and advanced techniques.
  • A collaborative environment where technical growth and best practices are encouraged.
