Data Science Internship- Summer 2025

The Data Science team at SPAN is responsible for deriving value out of our data. This includes developing insights, designing algorithms, and building tools to monitor our fleet. We are part of the R&D department, and we do preliminary research and build prototypes of products that then make it to production later. As an intern on our team, you’ll be an integral part of our product development cycle. The role will give you a broad exposure to many aspects of data science: we’ll expect you to do a mix of data analysis, model development, and data collection. Responsibilities Collect, analyze and clean data sets Prototype, implement and test new features Collaborate with other engineers on projects to seamlessly build a cohesive product Collaborate and communicate with non-technical stakeholders Be ready to pitch in on projects outside of your main subject area, when needed Potential Projects Areas Develop algorithms to detect anomalies based on electrical consumption data Develop automated rationality checks to detect issues with sensors. Diagnose an urgent issue in the field by running data analysis against fleet telemetry About You We’re looking for interns with enough experience in data science to be able to jump in and participate off the bat. That said, you should expect to learn a lot over the summer! We’re especially interested in candidates who are self-motivated, quick learners, and who like being part of a fast-moving team. Required Qualifications Pursuing a degree in computer science, applied mathematics, statistics, or equivalent fields Strong understanding of most common machine learning techniques and their application Comfortable with the analysis of large data sets Comfortable working with Python and SQL Bonus Qualifications Understanding of electrical engineering concepts Experience in cloud computing platforms (e.g. AWS) Cool projects or coursework in data science / data analytics The Internship position has a duration of 12 weeks and will start in May or June of 2024. Candidates must be enrolled in an accredited college or university, and have not graduated prior to end of the Internship term. The hourly rate for this role is $32/ hour for undergrad students, and $35/hr for Masters or PhD students.

SPAN is mission-driven to design, build, and deploy products that electrify our built environment, decarbonize our world, and slow the effects of climate change.
