Role Summary
As a Data Analyst Intern within EASI, you will help enable post-sales organizations with curated, governed data that supports decision-making at scale. You’ll coordinate with multiple business functions to understand their data needs, translate requirements into functional designs, create data models and semantic views, and contribute to modern experiences such as AI Agents and conversational analytics. This role blends stakeholder partnership, analytical thinking, and hands-on data enablement.
Job Requirements
- Stakeholder Partnership (Post-Sales Functions)
- Coordinate with multiple post-sales business functions (e.g., Customer Success, Support, Professional Services) to understand goals, data needs, and reporting workflows.
- Participate in requirements workshops, clarify ambiguous requests, and drive alignment on KPI definitions and decision use-cases.
- Communicate progress, dependencies, and tradeoffs clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Requirements → Functional Design
- Convert business requirements into clear functional designs and delivery-ready artifacts, including:
- KPI/metric definitions, calculation logic, and business rules
- Dashboard/report requirements (filters, drill paths, usability needs)
- Security and access requirements (e.g., role/region-based visibility)
- Data refresh needs, data lineage assumptions, and validation plans
- Acceptance criteria and test scenarios
- Partner with data engineering / analytics engineering to confirm feasibility, reduce rework, and ensure scalable implementation.

Create semantic views over underlying data models (Snowflake/Power BI semantic models / curated dataset layer) to enable consistent self-service reporting, including:
Standardized measures/KPIs
Business-friendly naming conventions, hierarchies, and metadata
Reusable definitions and “single source of truth” datasets
Performance considerations and model usability patterns
Support data quality and metric integrity through reconciliation, anomaly checks, and root-cause analysis of reporting discrepancies.
- Create and maintain data models aligned to post-sales processes and analytics best practices (fact/dimension modeling, conformed dimensions where applicable).
- BI & Reporting Enablement (Power BI)
- Enable business functions with trusted datasets, semantic models, and documentation so they can build dashboards and visualizations in Power BI.
- Provide guidance on best practices for using shared datasets, consistent KPI interpretation, and governance expectations.
- Support adoption by creating how-to documentation and lightweight enablement sessions as needed.
- AI Agents & Conversational Analytics
- Contribute to AI Agent and conversational analytics initiatives that allow stakeholders to ask questions in natural language and receive governed, explainable answers.
- Help define intents and analytic use-cases, identify the right datasets/metrics to ground responses, and document guardrails (approved definitions, exclusions, confidence checks).
- Test and validate AI outputs for accuracy, consistency with metric definitions, and usefulness for business decisions.
- Delivery & Documentation
- Work in an agile delivery model (standups, sprint planning, retrospectives) and maintain clear project documentation (requirements, designs, definitions, and change notes).

Data privacy
We care about your privacy and, therefore, ask that you read our Candidate Privacy Notice before you submit any personal information to us.
NetApp does not carry out any solely automated decision making (i.e. the process of making a decision by automated means without any human involvement) in determining your suitability or eligibility for specific roles.
However, the processing of your personal information is carried out with the aid of manual and automated tools. In particular, NetApp may use an automated employment evaluation tool or similar tool as one of several tools, actions, and/or steps to assist with NetApp’s review of candidate applications for various hiring needs. Currently, when addressing certain hiring needs, NetApp uses the Eightfold tool which can provide an initial ranking of a candidate’s skills and experience, based on information provided by the applicant in the application and/or supporting documentation, in comparison to the NetApp designated key requirements of a specific role. Additionally, the tool may be used to help review and/or rank internal employees seeking promotion or other internal mobility. However, our talent acquisition team or our recruiters will ultimately select the candidates for further consideration, following human review of any automated evaluation results and associated underlying documentation (or lack thereof) submitted with the candidates’ application.
An independent audit of the Eightfold Matching Model tool can be found at https://eightfold.ai/nyc-eightfoldmatching-model.
Candidates may request an alternative selection process which will not be subject to the Eightfold matching tool or to any electronic automated employment evaluation by contacting NetApp at careers@netapp.com. To bypass the Eightfold matching tool or any electronic automated employment evaluation, you must include a resume and job ID with your email to careers@netapp.com and you must include in the subject line of your email: Data Privacy Request. Candidates who have questions or want to request additional information on the source of data, type of data, and/or collection of data related to the candidate review process should contact NetApp at careers@netapp.com
