Job description

Our Unbabel division is looking for a Data Engineering Intern to join our team.
As a Data Engineering Intern, you'll help design, build, and maintain the data infrastructure and pipelines that support Unbabel's core products and analytics. This is a unique opportunity to learn how large-scale language and translation data is processed, stored, and analyzed in a real-world, production environment.

Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate with data engineers and other technical teams to understand business requirements and deliver data solutions.

  • Assist in building, testing, and maintaining data pipelines (extraction, transformation, loading—ETL) and data integrations.

  • Help optimize the performance and reliability of our data workflows.

  • Contribute to the documentation of data architecture, pipelines, and processes.

  • Learn to work with structured and unstructured data from multiple sources.

  • Support data quality efforts—including monitoring, testing, and validation.

  • Participate in daily team standups, sprint planning, and code reviews.

  • Grow your skills in modern data tools, programming, and cloud technologies.

Job requirements

Must Have

  • Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

  • Basic programming skills—preferably Python (or similar language).

  • Interest in data engineering, databases, cloud services, or big data.

  • Understanding of fundamental data structures and concepts (e.g. tables, schemas, SQL or basic database querying).

  • Curiosity and willingness to learn best practices in data engineering, data processing, and analytics.

  • Ability to communicate in English and work collaboratively in a team.

  • Eagerness to ask questions, seek feedback, and grow as an engineer.

Nice to Have

  • Exposure to data pipeline tools or frameworks (e.g., Airflow, dbt, Luigi).

  • Understanding of cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure).

  • Experience with data visualization or reporting (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, Looker).

  • Previous participation in team projects (university, personal, open-source).

Why Join Us?

  • Hands-on experience working with large-scale, real-world data in a production environment.

  • Learn modern data engineering workflows and cloud data platforms with supportive mentors.

  • Friendly, international, and diverse engineering team committed to your growth and success.

  • Opportunities to make a meaningful impact and contribute ideas.
