Job Description

Deep analysis. Smarter systems. Real users. As a Data Engineering Intern, you'll help build the pipelines and data models that give People & Culture reliable data to make better decisions about how we hire, develop and support our teams.

You'll join this team and learn how production data work is done at scale.

Join the team that champions the employee experience at Delivery Hero. As part of the People & Culture Team, you'll help attract, develop, and retain top talent, creating a workplace where people feel valued, supported, and empowered to grow. With each initiative you support, you'll be building a positive culture that fuels innovation, teamwork, and a sense of belonging across our global organization.

• Build and maintain data pipelines that bring People & Culture data from source systems into our data platform.
• Write SQL and Python transformations that turn raw data into clean, documented, analytics-ready datasets.

• Curiosity and care about data accuracy: you check your work and ask when something looks off.
• Ability to pick up an unfamiliar problem and work out how to move it forward, asking for help when needed.
• Clear written and spoken English, so you can explain your work to technical and non-technical colleagues.

Nice to have:
