Data Science Engineering Intern

Emerson is a global leader in automation technology and software. The Data Science Engineering Intern will develop predictive analytics models, dashboards, forecasts, and simulation tools for manufacturing backlog, capacity, and supply chain planning, while collaborating with cross-functional teams and supporting analytical projects from exploration through deployment and training.

What you'll do:

• Develop a Power BI dashboard that predicts future past-due backlog based on Customer Required Date (CRD), Planned Ship Date (PSD), model code, value stream, and material status, enabling planners to answer, "What will be late next month?" with data-driven confidence
• Build weekly projected late backlog forecasts, top model code risk heat maps, and simulation tools that quantify the impact of material availability, capacity constraints, and scheduling decisions on backlog recovery
• Create a predictive surge capacity model for low-volume product lines (e.g., CMFHC) that identifies demand mix variation, highlights bottlenecks by operation, and produces growth scenario analyses to guide investment prioritization and lead time stability
• Apply data science methodologies, including statistical modeling, forecasting, and visualization, to translate complex operational datasets into actionable insights for planners, operations leaders, and SIOP discussions
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams including supply chain planning, operations, and engineering to validate models, gather requirements, and ensure analytical tools align with business priorities and decision-making workflows
• Participate in multiple analytical projects at various stages, from data exploration and model development to dashboard deployment and user training, gaining a comprehensive understanding of the data science project lifecycle in a manufacturing context

What they're looking for:

• Pursuing a bachelor's degree in engineering
• Zero (0) years of related experience
• Ability to work full-time (40 hours) per week in-person
• Legal authorization to work in the United States
• Experience with Power BI, Tableau, or similar data visualization platforms
• Familiarity with Python, R, SQL, or statistical modeling techniques
• Prior internship or project experience in data analytics, operations research, or supply chain
• Exposure to manufacturing, supply chain planning, or ERP/MES systems

Benefits:

• Ongoing career development and support to thrive through mentorship, training, or leadership opportunities
• Flexible time off plans
• Monthly housing allowance
• Paid holidays
• Employee choice hours
• Paid sick time
• Paid volunteer time
• Hands-on experience, professional development, and networking opportunities in the well-established and structured internship program
• On-site cafeterias
• Fitness facilities
