The Cleveland Guardians are seeking an intern to join their Baseball Systems team this coming summer. We are an expanding department focused on building software and data products that directly impact the organization's ability to acquire, develop, and deploy players. The products you help build facilitate operations and enhance decision-making across all areas of the organization, helping answer questions such as "which trades should we execute," "who should we select with our next pick in the draft," and "how can we help players use data from yesterday's game to improve?" The position offers the unique opportunity to work with a variety of emerging technologies spanning the entire applications stack — from data warehousing to web design — alongside veteran software engineers crafting innovative solutions to challenging problems, all in pursuit of the organization's ultimate mission: winning the World Series. If you enjoy working on large-scale data products, developing high-impact tools, and collaborating with talented individuals, we want to hear from you.
We recognize that applicants will have differing dates of availability between their academic periods over the summer, and we therefore want to remain flexible with timing so that we can best accommodate each applicant's specific start date and end date. That said, our expectation is that the internship will last ~10-14 weeks.
The compensation for this position is $24/hr.
