Are you excited about working with massive datasets and building the systems that power data-driven decisions? We’re looking for Data Engineer Interns to join our team and help us shape a modern, scalable data platform that supports our games and the millions of players who enjoy them every day.

Data plays a central role in how we understand our players and improve our games. Our data platform is built to ensure data is reliable, accessible, and secure, from ingestion all the way to activation. As an intern, you’ll get hands-on experience across the stack, working alongside experienced engineers and contributing to real systems used across the company.

This is a learning-by-doing role where you’ll be trusted with meaningful work while being supported by a team that cares about your growth.

This is a paid internship and the length of the internship will be between 6 to 9 months depending on the project you will work on.

• Work across different parts of the data platform, from foundational infrastructure to downstream data use cases.

• Look for thoughtful ways to improve how we work, including through modern AI-enabled workflows and tools.

What You Have

• Current studies in computer science, data engineering, software engineering, information systems, or a related field, or equivalent hands-on experience through projects, hackathons, or open source work.

• Genuine interest in data and data engineering, shown through coursework, personal projects, internships, or other practical experience.

About Supercell

Supercell is a games company from Helsinki, Finland, with offices also in San Francisco, Seoul, Shanghai, and London. You might know us as the makers of Hay Day, Clash of Clans, Boom Beach, Clash Royale, and Brawl Stars. Our mission is to create great games that as many people as possible play for years and that are remembered forever.

So, how do we make great games? By putting together the best teams and giving them the freedom and independence to succeed. And by taking risks, failing, sharing learnings, and killing lots of projects.

!

Hey, You Might Love It Here!

Independent cells and trust are at the core of our culture. But it takes more than that to make great games. We take good care of our people, providing them with the compensation, work environment, and resources they need to succeed while having fun along the way.

You Are Not Your Job Title ™

Here, you won’t need to focus on chasing titles or climbing ladders. Internally, our job titles don’t include prefixes like Senior, Junior, Principal, or Director. Recognition isn’t tied to your title, as it doesn't define the impact you can have around here.

!

Benefits and Compensation

Luring you in with glitter, glamour, and gems isn't what we're about. We want you to enjoy your time here fully, so we structure our compensation and benefits with that in mind. It starts with perceiving you as a human being, not a resource.

!

Not Sure if You Should Apply?

Many candidates with great skills and experience second-guess themselves. The bar is high, but if this role excites you, apply! We’re here to help you succeed. Also, we're happy to learn about any specific accommodations you may need to fully engage in our recruitment process.

Wishing you all the best,

The Supercell Recruitment team:
