Data Science Growth Intern (Part-Time)

NannyML, creators of an Open-Source Python library, is looking for a Data Science Growth Intern to join its team. As a Data Science Growth Intern at NannyML, you will be responsible for supporting the sales team in talking with leads and prospecting potential clients to grow our company and drive revenue. You will also be involved with organizing (and attending) Data Science Meetups.

About Us

NannyML is an Open Source Python library for detecting silent model failure. We are backed by tech leaders who have founded and grown top data unicorns, like the co-founder of Collibra (the first Belgian unicorn), Zehan Wang (ex-head of Cortex AI at Twitter); and deep tech VCs like Lunar Ventures.

At NannyML, we are building Free Open Source Software to estimate the performance of ML models after deployment. We’re creating a one-of-a-kind company by being one of the initial players in the growing ML Monitoring field. By focusing on post-deployment data science and performance estimation, we’ll define the industry and science for decades to come.

The founders are experienced entrepreneurs who previously founded a specialized machine learning company, where they became experts at building machine learning systems. At NannyML, we take pride in hiring the best people and getting out of their way so that they can make great things happen.

About the Role
As a Data Science Growth Intern, you will work closely with the growth team to identify potential leads and prospects. You will assist in researching and collecting relevant data to support sales strategies. Additionally, you will contribute to sales presentations (for example, by preparing data sets).
