Data Analyst - Intern

We are adding a Data Analyst - Intern to our team to help with a specific project for our partner, a Berlin-based company that needs to clean up its operational data.

This role is not about tracking marketing clicks or social media engagement.

Instead, you will be working on the practical data that keeps a business running, such as inventory logs, order histories, and customer records.

You will help us move this information out of messy spreadsheets and into structured databases that are easier for the client to manage.

About Pixel Systems

Pixel Systems is a small, fully remote software agency.

We avoid flashy consumer apps and instead focus on the tools that teams actually use to do their jobs.

Our work usually involves building admin panels, CRM integrations, and database migrations.

We are the team people call when their spreadsheets get too big to handle or when their various software tools refuse to talk to each other.

We pride ourselves on being pragmatic and straightforward.

We give fixed quotes, show our progress in weekly demos, and hand over clean code and documentation when we are done.

We use stable tools like Node, React, and Postgres because we value reliability over chasing the latest industry trends.

The role

In this internship, you will spend your time looking at how data flows through a business.

Your main task will be helping us organize and clean legacy data so it can be imported into new systems.

You will be working with Postgres databases and writing queries to find inconsistencies or errors.

This is a fully remote position, so you will be responsible for managing your own schedule and communicating clearly with the rest of the team through written updates and video check-ins.

You will also help create basic reports and dashboards that help our clients understand their own operations better.

It is a great opportunity to see how data structures affect the software people use every day.

• What we are looking for
• A basic understanding of how relational databases work.
• Comfortable working with large spreadsheets and using functions to organize information.
• Basic knowledge of SQL, including how to write simple select statements and joins.
• High attention to detail, especially when looking for patterns or errors in large sets of data.
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to track your own progress on tasks.
• A preference for clear, simple solutions over complex ones.
• Ability to communicate technical findings in plain English.
• Helpful background
• Experience with Google Sheets or Excel beyond basic data entry.
• Some familiarity with Postgres or another SQL-based database.
• Interest in how business operations, like logistics or inventory, actually function.
• Basic exposure to a programming language like Python or Node is a plus but not required.
• Previous experience working or studying in a remote environment.
• An interest in technical documentation and explaining how things work.
• Working at Pixel Systems

Working here is different from a typical corporate environment.

We do not have layers of management or long, unnecessary meetings.

You will work directly with our developers and see the immediate results of your work.

We value honesty and steady progress over long hours or flashy presentations.

Because we are a small team, your contributions to the data cleaning and migration process will be noticed and used by the rest of the team right away.

This is a paid internship, and we offer competitive pay for the role and current market.

You will get to solve real operational headaches and build things that help people like warehouse managers and operations leads do their jobs without the usual technical friction.

We are a quiet team that values deep work and clear communication.

We focus on building software that is stable and easy to maintain for years to come.

If you enjoy the process of turning a disorganized pile of information into a clean, useful database, you will fit in well here.

We look for people who are curious about how things work under the hood and who are comfortable working independently in a remote setting.
