Who's hiring
Thaltej, on SG Highway in Ahmedabad, is where this Junior Big Data Engineer internship is based. On-site, up to ₹23,000 a month, and open to candidates with no professional experience yet.
Who this suits
A bachelor's degree is expected, most often in computer science or a closely related field. Proficiency in SQL is assumed, along with some working familiarity with data pipelines and reporting tools, whether gained through a course, a project, or self-study.
Skills the internship draws on
- Hadoop
- Apache Spark
- SQL
- Python or Scala
- Data pipeline development
Anyone who's spun up a small Hadoop cluster for a course project, or written even a basic Spark job, already has something concrete to point to in an interview.
What interns actually do
Most of the work centers on getting raw data into a shape the business can use.
- Help transform raw data into structured outputs
- Support the team in building dashboards for business stakeholders
- Maintain reporting and pipeline workflows already in place
- Work on optimizing queries that are running slower than they should
The setup
Thaltej houses a fairly compact data team, which means an intern here ends up touching real pipeline code early rather than sitting on the sidelines for months. Naukri Mitra has seen a steady rise in big data engineer jobs in Ahmedabad as local companies build out data teams rather than relying entirely on external vendors, and this internship is part of that trend.
Stipend and perks
- Monthly stipend up to ₹23,000
- Direct mentorship from senior engineers
- A certificate of completion
- On-site cafeteria access and cab or commute support
Strong performers stand a real chance at a full-time offer once the internship period ends.
How to apply
Attach a resume and, if there's anything to point to, a link to a small pipeline project, a Spark script, or coursework involving Hadoop. A short call comes first, followed by a technical round focused on a practical data-processing problem rather than trivia. Most candidates hear back inside two weeks, and this one is strictly on-site, so anyone browsing big data engineer jobs near me should factor that in before applying.
