Job Description - Intern, Data Engineer

🚀 Why Headout?


We’re a rocketship: 9-figure revenue, record growth, and profitable


With $130M in revenue, guests in 100+ cities, and 18 months of profitability, Headout is the fastest-growing marketplace in the travel industry, and we’re just getting started. We've raised $60M+ from top-tier investors and are building a durable company for the long term — because that's what our mission needs and deserves. We’re growing, profitable and nowhere near done.


What we do is important


In an increasingly digital world, there is a desperate need to augment our human experience by getting us to interact with the real world around us and the people in it. At Headout, our mission is to be the easiest, fastest, and most delightful way to head out to a real-life experience — from immersive tours to museums to live events and everything in between.


Why now?


The foundation is strong. The opportunity ahead is even bigger. We’ve hit profitability, built momentum, and proven the model — but there’s so much more to build. If you’re looking to join a company where the trajectory is steep and your impact is real, this is the moment.


Our culture


Reinventing the travel industry isn't easy, but that's the fun part.
We care deeply about ownership, craft, and impact, and we’re here to do the best work of our careers. We won’t pretend like it’s for everyone but if you’re a builder who loves solving tough problems, you’ll feel right at home.

👩‍💻 The role


As our Data Engineering Intern, you will help build and optimize the data infrastructure that powers business intelligence across Headout. You’ll play a key role in moving, transforming, and validating data so teams can rely on fast, accurate, and scalable systems. At Headout, data sits at the heart of decision-making, and the data engineering team ensures the foundation is strong, observable, and future-ready.


🌟 What makes the role stand out?



  • Build and Refactor: Work hands-on with core data pipelines, automating ingestion from multiple sources and refactoring existing workflows to improve performance and reliability.

  • Scale with Impact: Contribute to optimizing our cloud-based data infrastructure, ensuring systems remain efficient and scalable as the business grows rapidly.

  • Quality First: Help maintain high standards of data accuracy and reliability, ensuring production data is trustworthy and decision-ready.

  • Systems Visibility: Gain exposure to modern observability practices by setting up centralized alerts and performance metrics using tools like Prometheus and Grafana.

  • Solve Real Problems: Investigate performance bottlenecks and inefficiencies in existing workflows, learning how large-scale data systems operate in production.

  • Learn by Collaborating: Partner closely with senior engineers and cross-functional teams to support data-driven initiatives across the company.


🎯 What skills you need to have



  • Strong fundamentals in Python, used for data manipulation, automation, or building simple systems

  • Solid SQL skills, including complex joins and working with databases like PostgreSQL or BigQuerY.

  • Curiosity for how data systems work end-to-end and a mindset focused on scalability and reliability


✨ Nice to have



  • Basic understanding of Kafka or real-time data processing

  • Exposure to dbt or Airflow for data modeling or orchestration

  • Familiarity with Git, Docker, or CI/CD pipelines

  • Any experience with GCP or AWS and cloud-native systems
