2027 Summer Product Quality Analytics Intern Data Science and Analytics

CREATIVITY IS OUR SUPERPOWER. It’s our heritage and it’s also our future. Because we don’t just make toys. We create innovative products and experiences that inspire, entertain and develop children through play. Mattel is at its best when every member of our team feels respected, included, and heard—when everyone can show up as themselves and do their best work every day. We value and share an infinite range of ideas and voices that evolve and broaden our perspectives with a reach that extends into all our brands, partners, and suppliers.

The Team:

The Product Quality Analytics team turns global quality, safety, consumer, supplier, and product data into actionable insights for Mattel teams around the world. We partner across Product Development and Quality, Safety, Sustainability, Operations, and Commercial teams to build trusted data products, advanced analytics, and AI-enabled tools that help the business identify trends, understand risk, and make better decisions for children, families, and our brands.

The Opportunity:

Mattel is currently seeking a Product Quality Analytics Summer Intern for summer 2027. Our internship program is driven by a single focus: to find our future leaders. We encourage interns to push boundaries because we want to see how far you might take us some day. As an intern, we give you phenomenal managers, mentors and buddies to help you accomplish more than you would have thought possible.

In this role, you will work with the Analytics group inside our Google Cloud platform to help build out advanced analytics capabilities using AI. The work will support global quality teams by making it easier to ask business questions, explore trusted data, and surface insights from product quality information. You will learn from data scientists, analysts, and data engineers while contributing to practical tools that connect technical analytics with real business decisions.

What Your Impact Will Be:

• Assist with building and testing AI-enabled conversational analytics experiences for product quality insights.
• Work with data scientists, analysts, and data engineers to explore data in Google Cloud, including BigQuery and related analytics tools.
• Help translate quality questions from global business partners into data requirements, prompts, metrics, and prototype analytics workflows.
• Support data preparation, feature exploration, and quality checks that improve trust in dashboards, models, and AI responses.
• Contribute to prompt testing, response evaluation, documentation, and feedback loops for conversational analytics solutions.
• Create clear summaries, visuals, or demos that explain findings and help non technical partners use analytics confidently.

What We’re Looking For:

• Currently enrolled in an accredited college or university and pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Data Science, AI, Analytics, Statistics, Applied Mathematics, or a related field.
• Interest in applying analytics, data science, and AI to real business problems in product quality, consumer experience, or operations.
• Experience with SQL and at least one programming or analysis language such as Python, R, or similar coursework-based tools.
• Familiarity with data visualization, statistical analysis, machine learning, natural language processing, or generative AI concepts through coursework, projects, research, or prior internship experience.
• Curiosity about cloud data platforms; exposure to Google Cloud, BigQuery, Vertex AI, Looker, or similar tools is a plus but not required.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical work clearly to both technical and non technical audiences.
• Creative problem solving, attention to detail, intellectual curiosity, and the ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment.
• Self starter who is comfortable learning new tools, asking thoughtful questions, and adapting as project priorities evolve.
• *Hourly pay and work location details for this 2027 internship will be confirmed in the final requisition.
