My Spring 2023 Internship Experience

‘Data are just summaries of thousands of stories—tell a few of those stories to help make the data meaningful.’ - Chip and Dan Heath

Where did I work?

I had an incredible opportunity to work at Intelliswift Software,? one of the top global leaders in the field of It service providers mainly focusing on delivering Digital Product Engineering, Data Management & Analytics, Cloud, and Digital Enterprise. Here I was fortunate enough to get an opportunity to work with a very talented Google BI Developer and Analytics Team.

How was my experience?

While working on many interesting cross-functional projects I realized that data isn't just a collection of some random facts, figures, or statistics it's a collection of hidden millions of stories behind. It is a manifestation of our curiosity and our desire to find patterns and connections that help us analyze the complex ever-changing reality we live in. It is a strong tool to extract meaning from the chaos of the universe that gives us the power to predict and control our way of living.

During my projects, I focused on understanding the stakeholders' requirements and their stories to create meaningful and actionable insights through data analytics. I learned to listen carefully to their needs and work with them to develop dashboards, reports, and audit scripts that told their stories and conveyed the data's significance. To accomplish these tasks, I leveraged various tools such as Google PLX Scripts, PLX dashboards, and Google SQL. To automate the scripts' execution, I additionally employed workflows and script schedulers. Working with project management tools like task flow helped me get acquainted with the Agile environment where the workload was divided into manageable chunks to stay on track and meet priority deadlines thus maintaining my productivity.

By telling these stories, I helped my stakeholders make informed decisions based on the data, improving their business operations and strategies. This experience taught me the importance of not just analyzing data but also understanding the context behind it and telling its story. It helped me realize that data analytics is not just about numbers and trends but also about the stories behind them. The most important lesson that I learned during my internship was the significance of thinking analytically to design the most effective and efficient solutions. I also learned how to create reliable, robust, and error-free scripts that can withstand the most complex cases.

What am I grateful for?

This internship was an important step in my career journey, and I know that there is still much to learn and accomplish. I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude towards my manager Shravanti Sri, Muhiddin Celik, and Vijay TY and my team who guided me so well during my entire course of the internship, and Shafiq Mohammed who trusted me with this opportunity

I am grateful to all my professors, at Naveen Jindal School of Management, UT Dallas , this has been an amazing journey and I am truly thankful for it.
