What you’ll do:

Position title: SAP iXp Intern (f/m/d) – SAP Configuration Analysis Using Python and Machine Learning
Work Area: Software-Design and Development
Location: Walldorf/St. Leon Rot

We are looking for a motivated intern (f/m/d) to analyze and enhance an existing Python program. This program uses existing SAP system data to generate new configuration data, critical for setting up new SAP systems in an automated way. During this process, machine learning is used to ensure accuracy and efficiency. The generated configuration data enables smooth execution of the SAP system setup process.

Your primary responsibilities will include:

• Understanding the current script: Analyze the existing Python program to learn how it generates configuration data using machine learning techniques.
• Data collection and preparation: Work with large-scale SAP system data. This includes cleaning, normalizing and preparing data for machine learning training and testing.
• Model improvement: Optimize the machine learning models used in the script. This could involve exploring different algorithms, such as regression, decision trees or neural networks to boost model performance.
• Automation enhancements: Improve the program’s ability to handle dynamic and regularly updated input data.
• Deployment and evaluation: Assist in deploying the optimized model into production environments to generate configuration data for new SAP system setups.

Who you are:

You are a student (f/m/d) at a university or a university of applied sciences. We’re looking for someone who takes initiative, perseveres, and stays curious. You like to work on meaningful innovative projects and are energized by lifelong learning.

• Proficiency in Python, with experience in developing or analyzing data-driven scripts and programs.
• Solid understanding of machine learning concepts (e.g., training/testing models, evaluating performance with metrics like accuracy, precision, etc.).
• Experience working with data preprocessing tasks, such as cleaning, normalizing, and splitting datasets for analysis.
• Knowledge of model optimization techniques, such as hyperparameter tuning or selecting appropriate algorithms (e.g., regression, decision trees, neural networks).
• Fluency in English (both written and spoken) to collaborate effectively within a global company.

Your set of application documents should contain a cover letter, a resume in table form, school leaving certificates, certificate of enrollment, current university transcript of records, copies of any academic degrees already earned, and if available, references from former employers (including internships). Please also describe your experience and skills in foreign languages and computer programs / programming languages.

Note for Germany: currently the SAP Internship Experience Program is only open to interns and being hired into other contract types such as working students will preclude the candidate's participation in the program.
