At Zello our company values are at the heart of what we do everyday. Were proud to serve the frontline were privileged to connect people in times of crisis across the globe and were honored to support first responders.

And this is where you come in.

Our go-to-market team should be able to answer their own data questions without waiting on us and right now they cant: dashboards are slow definitions dont line up and most numbers still need someone from the data team to explain them. Youd join the Data & AI team in Austin reporting to our Head of Analytics and spend the fall fixing that for the reports and topics people use most.

This is real ownership not shadowing. Youll take named surfaces that other people depend on and make them work with review and support from the team.

• Rebuilt three or more of the dashboards our go-to-market team opens every week so they load fast use governed definitions and no longer need someone from the data team standing next to them

• Shipped and documented a set of Omni topics that a salesperson or Customer Success can answer their own questions from tested against the questions they actually ask rather than the ones we assumed theyd ask

• Published an inventory of the analytics surfaces you worked on each with an owner and a clear keep consolidate or retire recommendation

• Turned a handful of small analyses around end to end from a fuzzy question to a written recommendation someone acted on

• Left documentation good enough that the next person picks up your work without booking time with you

• Rebuild and speed up dashboards in Omni our BI tool starting with the ones people complain about most

• Build Omni topics so non-technical teammates can ask their own questions then sit with those teammates and watch where the topic falls over

• Write SQL against Snowflake to pull check and reconcile numbers and read our dbt models to trace where a metric actually comes from

• Take small analysis requests end to end: scope the question pull the data and come back with a recommendation rather than a spreadsheet

• Document what you build and inventory what already exists including the honest calls about which reports should be retired

• Use AI tools Claude included to move faster on the routine parts and check what they hand back before it goes anywhere

• Show your work in team meetings and say so when a number looks wrong

• Youre currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program and you can work about 20 hours a week on-site in Austin around your class schedule through early December

• You write your own SQL against a real database joins and aggregations included and you can debug a query that returns something surprising

• You can explain what a number means to someone non-technical and trace it back to where it came from

• You check your own work so when you hand something over youve already found the errors you were going to find

• Youve taken at least one project past what was assigned and you can say what changed because you did

• You write things down so whoever picks up your work after you doesnt need to book time with you first

• You already use AI tools for real work and you verify what they give you instead of trusting it

• An ML or AI research internship. Were not training models here this is analytics and BI work

• A data engineering role. Ingestion and pipelines are owned by the team

• A semester of shadowing. Youll own real surfaces other people depend on with review not observation

• Fully remote. This is hybrid in Austin and the in-person time is where most of the useful context transfers
