Who you are:

We are always looking for amazing talent who can contribute to our growth and deliver results! Geotab is seeking a Data Scientist Intern who can help us discover the value out of our rich and large datasets. Our ideal team member will have the mathematical and statistical expertise you’d expect, but a natural curiosity and creative mind that’s not so easy to find. As you mine, interpret and clean our data, we will rely on you to ask questions, connect the dots, and uncover opportunities that lie hidden within—all with the ultimate goal of realizing the data’s full potential. You will join a team of data specialists, but will “slice and dice” data using your own methods, creating new visions for the future. If you love technology and are keen to join an industry leader — we would love to hear from you!

What you'll do:

As a Data Scientist Intern, you will be a crucial part of producing innovative analytics from Geotab’s big data environment. We believe that there is collective value in the massive amount of data arising from all of our sensors across the globe. And most importantly, we believe this data can be used to improve safety, infrastructure, and productivity for our customers. You will work with our team of data scientists and engineers who have curated our data repository and have created a series of near real-time and historical datasets. You will leverage data mining techniques, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Neural Networks and other Artificial Intelligence and statistical analysis tools to build models and high-quality prediction systems to help our customers make informed and smarter decisions. You will work closely with Data Analysts, Data Engineers, Professional Services, Data Privacy & Governance, firmware as well as other internal departments such as Software Development and Solutions Engineering to achieve these objectives.

The opportunity:

  • 8+ month work-term beginning May 2026.
  • Full-time, paid internship: Monday - Friday, 37.5hrs/week.
  • Your first week at Geotab begins with 'GEO Launch' - a one-week Employee Orientation. Click here to learn more!
  • Learn more about the Geotab Campus Program here.
  • This posting is for an existing vacancy.

How you'll make an impact:

  • The primary objective of this internship is to develop a "Reasoning & Automation" solution that evolves Geotab Ace into a fully integrated, context-aware assistant. Key goals include:
    • Multi-Modal Ingestion: Implement a multi-modal ingestion layer (leveraging technologies like Google's LiveAPI) capable of processing screen content, audio, and text simultaneously to establish real-time user context.
    • Contextual Enrichment: Develop mechanisms to automatically enrich user prompts with environmental state (e.g., current page URL, visible data charts), eliminating the need for users to manually explain their context.
    • Proactive Assistance & Navigation: Extend the reasoning capabilities of the agent to not only answer data queries but also guide users through complex workflows ("Where do I go to...") and offer proactive support.
    • Optimization of RAG & SQL Generation: Continue to refine the underlying RAG architecture and "text-to-SQL" generation for Google BigQuery to ensure the answers provided are accurate, safe, and efficient.

What you'll bring to the role:

  • Graduate or Postgraduate Degree in Computer Science, Software/Electronics/Electrical Engineering, or any related field.
  • We welcome applicants from a range of experience levels with an excellent understanding of Python and SQL.
  • Experience with parallelization tools like Apache Beam and Spark, and scheduling tools like Airflow is nice to have.
  • Advanced pattern recognition and predictive modeling or Graph Data Modeling experience is a bonus.
  • Experience with developing machine learning models and in feature engineering is a plus.
  • Experience working with Google Compute Engine and Google BigQuery is nice to have.
If you got this far, we hope you're feeling excited about this role! Even if you don't feel you meet every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply.

Geotab’s Voluntary Self-Identification Survey

Geotab is committed to fair and equitable treatment for all, and fostering a culture that embraces diversity and inclusion throughout the hiring process and beyond. At Geotab, our unique company culture is built upon the value of “always do the right thing” which is embraced by employees around the world. As a global organization, we continuously seek ways in which we can support both our staff and our communities through programs and partnerships focused on empowering diversity and prioritizing inclusion. 

We invite you to complete this optional survey to help us evaluate our diversity and inclusion efforts. Submission of the information on this form is strictly voluntary. Opting not to participate will not impact your job application in any way. Information obtained will not be associated with your name or job application in any identifiable manner. This information will be kept secure and confidential and will be used solely to evaluate our diversity and inclusion efforts. The information collected in this survey is only available to HR staff and Geotab data scientists to view in aggregated data format and not on an individual basis. Your answer will be maintained confidential and not be seen by selecting officials or anyone else involved in making hiring decisions.

Note to USA Applicants: This is a separate survey from the EEO-1 Voluntary Self Identification Form used in the United States for compliance purposes. We feel that the options found in the mandated survey do not encompass the rich diversity of our applicants, and as such strive to provide additional responses that reflect the landscape more accurately.
