Operations Intern

We're hiring a Business Operations Intern to support Soda's Operations team. You'll be working directly with the Director of Business Operations and the rest of the team to help us move faster and more efficiently. Your job is to enable the team to focus on execution by taking ownership of operational tasks across revenue operations, business analytics and AI-enablement of operations. You will be deployed to improve strategically important processes that help us scale. This is a hands-on, high-impact role. If you perform, we expect you to grow into a full-time role within the Operations team.

Responsibilities

Depending on your strengths and interests, you'll be involved in areas such as:

• Generating efficiencies in how Soda works

• Set up AI-enabled bots to support operational tasks

• Automate and improve manual workflows

• Improve documentation in both structure and content to make it fit for AI consumption

• Assisting with reporting and analytics

• Support forecasting and pipeline analytics

• Track customer product usage and analytics
• Support CRM hygiene and reporting

• Drive data quality improvements on our internal data (e.g. using Soda)

• Improving systems and processes across Soda

• Partner with teams across the organization to identify and fix process bottlenecks

• Help design scalable systems and playbooks (e.g. recruitment, event planning, sales enablement)

Soda's mission is to monitor the world's decisions. We're building the first Data and AI performance monitoring platform that spans data collection to automated decision-making. Soda helps customers detect, resolve, and prevent data quality issues by combining automated post-production monitoring with pre-production pipeline data testing. We enable Data Engineers to effectively own DQ by "shifting left" the data quality initiatives from business to engineering.

Soda was founded in 2019 by Maarten (employee #5 at Collibra, Go-To-Market leadership) and Tom (launched multiple OSS projects generating hundreds of millions in value). Together, they built a tool that ensures data quality across Data Engineering, Data Governance, and business use cases. Our open-source project, Soda Core, is already used by companies like Tesla, Slack, Adyen, Walmart, and JPMC. Soda commercializes its software through the Soda Cloud product. We're well-funded, with investors like Point 9 Capital, Hummingbird, Singular, and Eurazeo.

This is a unique opportunity to join a fast-growing startup at the cusp of becoming a leader in AI Observability.
