Data Analyst Internship (Fixed-Term)

At IQM, we build world-leading quantum computers for the well-being of humankind. We design systems to tackle computational challenges beyond the practical limits of classical machines. Our work sits at the edge of science and engineering. It's complex, demanding, and deeply collaborative. We turn deep research into reliable, full-stack systems that drive discoveries in fields like medicine, energy, and technology, reshaping how the world computes.

Join the team that gives quantum a heartbeat.

The work

In this internship, you will help IQM teams make better decisions with clearer, more trusted data. You will work closely with stakeholders to understand what they need, and turn that into dashboards, reporting improvements, and well-scoped tickets for the development team. Your work will make progress visible and help teams set goals in a more measurable way. The internship is fixed-term for 6 months.

Please submit your application by 30 April at 23:00. This internship is based in Finland, and we are only considering candidates located in Finland.

What you’ll actually do

• Collect feedback from stakeholders and teams about their data needs

• Translate feedback into clear data needs for the development team

• Review, improve and maintain current views and dashboards

• Provide analytical support by collaborating with stakeholders and team members

• Create and improve Jira tickets for bug fixes, enhancements, and new reporting requests

• Help teams define measurable goals and build dashboards to track progress

• Develop small tools or workflows that strengthen data driven decision making

• Explore data to find patterns, trends, and simple explanations that help teams act

• Communicate insights through clear visuals, short write ups, and stakeholder friendly reporting

• If relevant for the project, contribute to ELT work and help build datasets in the data warehouse

• Support data quality in your own work by checking inputs, spotting gaps, and documenting what you find

What we’re looking for

• Currently studying toward a degree or recent graduate in a relevant field such as data analytics, statistics, computer science, information systems, or similar

• Hands on experience with data analysis through coursework, projects, or a previous internship

• Confidence working with data

• Hands-on experience with SQL and any programming language, such as Python or R

• Experience in building dashboards and data visualisations with any visualization tool, ideally, Tableau

• Care for data quality and a practical approach to validating and documenting data

• Comfort collaborating with different teams and turning vague requests into clear next steps

• A structured way of working and a habit of tracking work in tools like Jira

• Clear communication in English, written and spoken

Why IQM?

• Full-stack quantum computing: From quantum hardware to software layers and beyond, we build across the full-stack.

• High-performance playground: We aim high, and we know sustainable performance only works when life outside work does too—hybrid setups, flexible hours.

• Never the smartest: Expect to learn constantly. You won't always be the smartest person in the room, and that's the point.

• Approachable leadership: Flat hierarchy, direct access. Feel free to approach any leaders. They're friendlier than they look!

• The sweet spot: Big enough to matter. Small enough to move fast. Growing between a startup and a corporation. We’re in the phase where top performers get noticed.

• Bigger than IQM: Our people build know-how for the entire quantum ecosystem. We publish papers, run hackathons, and help shape a market that's still being defined.

The future of computing won’t build itself. You might be one of the few who do.
