Internship Data & Analytics - Back-end

At Hunkemöller, it's about more than working in retail—it's about your passion for retail and creating beautiful moments for our customers and colleagues. Together we create an inspiring working environment where everyone feels welcome, and successes are shared. Starting in February 2026, you can become a part of the Best Internship in Retail (BIIR) Program, alongside 50+ fellow interns!

YOUR TASKS

What will you do?

• Deep dive into core datasets in BigQuery, enriching the data catalog with detailed column-level descriptions and business context. Classify data assets, establish data lineage, and curate a comprehensive data dictionary to enhance data discovery and governance.
• Quantify and optimize the cost/performance trade-offs of dbt materialization strategies (table, incremental, view) and BigQuery billing models (Standard vs. Editions) for high-traffic models. Implement environment-specific optimization strategies.
• Develop and test a pipeline to push dbt run metadata (e.g., last run time) to Looker, enabling intelligent cache refreshes and improved dashboard performance.
• Design and deploy a data quality monitoring loop that triggers Looker alerts based on failed dbt data quality tests, and measure incident response times.
• Create a dbt-based process to automatically detect and remediate schema drift in source data, including generating alerts, model stops, or auto-migrations.
• Analyze usage data to identify which dbt models drive the most value (e.g., most viewed dashboards, frequently run explores), and recommend models for deprecation or further optimization.
• Assist in migrating legacy data models to the current data warehouse and support the deprecation of obsolete models.

About you:

• Pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Information Management, or a related field.
• Strong understanding of data management concepts, including data warehousing, data modeling, and data governance.
• Experience or familiarity with SQL and cloud-based data platforms (ideally Google Cloud Platform).
• Exposure to data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, Looker) is a plus.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to articulate technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Self-motivated and eager to learn new technologies in a fast-paced environment.
• Dealing with English speaking staff and reporting in English.

What You'll Gain:

• Practical experience working with cutting-edge data management and visualization tools (BigQuery, Looker, SAP Analytics Cloud).
• Exposure to the inner workings of a data-driven retail organization undergoing a major data transformation.
• Mentorship from experienced data professionals at Hunkemöller.
• The opportunity to contribute directly to impactful data initiatives that drive business value.
