Your daily work involves designing experiments, testing hypotheses, and developing statistical or machine learning models using Python. You’ll be embedded in an experienced team of data engineers and data scientists, benefitting from pair programming, version control, and a fully established CI/CD environment. You’ll work with diverse data sources-internal, external, structured, and unstructured-and assess what is relevant for each use case. You will help shape strategies for data collection, integration, and retention, and will collaborate closely with domain experts across the company. A key part of the role is communicating complex insights into clear, business-friendly language. You’ll support stakeholders in adopting data science methods, run statistical validations, and guide teams through agile delivery using Scrum. Throughout your internship, you’ll contribute to impactful, production-oriented solutions that enable better decisions across Hilti’s digital business.
