Interface Developer Intern

Alpine Business Consulting is a specialized team focused on repairing enterprise performance management and reporting systems.

We frequently step in when complex planning tools have been poorly implemented, leaving finance teams with mismatched numbers and long month end close processes.

We configure these systems properly from the start or rebuild them to ensure they work as intended.

Our consultants bring real world experience to every project, prioritizing transparency and documentation.

This role is fully remote, allowing you to work from wherever you are most productive.

We are currently supporting a partner based in Berlin who provides specialized data services for European logistics firms.

They are in the process of modernizing their internal financial reporting and need help connecting various data sources to a central planning platform.

As an Interface Developer Intern, you will assist our senior consultants in building and testing these critical data bridges.

About the role

In this role, you will focus on the technical layers that allow different business applications to share information.

Most enterprise problems start with data that is trapped in a silo or formatted incorrectly.

You will help us extract that data, transform it into a usable format, and load it into a central system.

This is an entry level position designed for someone who is comfortable with basic coding and wants to see how those skills apply to corporate finance and large scale operations.

Because we are a remote company, you will use digital collaboration tools to coordinate with the team and document your progress throughout the day.

What you will do

• Assist in the configuration of data integration tools and API connectors to move information between accounting software and reporting dashboards.
• Write and maintain clear documentation for every interface you work on, ensuring that the client can understand how their data flows.
• Conduct basic data mapping exercises to help identify which fields in a source system correspond to the targets in a reporting tool.
• Perform data validation and testing to find errors in logic before they impact the final financial statements.
• Help troubleshoot interface failures by reviewing logs and identifying where a data load might have stalled.
• Participate in project meetings to understand the specific reporting requirements of the finance team and how the interface layer supports them.
• Assist in building simple scripts to automate repetitive data cleaning tasks.
• What we need from you
• Basic knowledge of programming or scripting languages, such as Java Script, Python, or SQL.
• An understanding of how the web works, specifically regarding how applications communicate via APIs.
• Strong attention to detail and a preference for order, particularly when managing naming conventions and data structures.
• The ability to explain technical concepts in plain language through written documentation.
• A background in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related technical field of study.
• Capacity to work independently as part of a fully remote team while keeping colleagues informed of your status.
• A willingness to learn about financial reporting and how enterprise systems like Oracle or SAP function in the real world.

What we offer

• A fully remote working environment with no requirement to visit a physical office.
• Direct mentorship from senior consultants who value teaching and technical accuracy.
• Experience working with enterprise grade software that is the standard for major corporations.
• A predictable working schedule that respects your time and avoids unnecessary fire drills.
• Opportunities to see the full project lifecycle, from initial configuration to the final handover and client training.
• The position is paid, and the compensation is competitive for an internship in the current market.
• How we work

At Alpine Business Consulting, we believe in a single source of truth.

We avoid the typical corporate habit of cutting corners to meet an arbitrary deadline.

Instead, we focus on fixed price quotes and reliable configurations.

We want our clients to be independent, so we emphasize handover guides over long term support contracts.

Our goal is to leave every system better than we found it, ensuring finance teams can trust their data every morning.

You will be expected to uphold these standards of clarity and honesty in everything you build.
