Department: Data Platform & ML
Employment Type: Internship
Location: KSA
Reporting To: Yahya Aloyoni
Tabby builds financial products used by millions of users across the GCC. Data is a core part of how products, risk, finance and operations are built and scaled. We work with large volumes of data under strict requirements for quality, cost efficiency and regulatory compliance.
This is not a course and not a shadowing programme. It is an engineering role with real responsibility.
Data engineers at Tabby work on the analytics and data platforms behind business decisions, product development and machine learning use cases. That covers data modelling, data pipelines, data quality and consumption by several internal teams.
The internship is designed for strong early-career engineers who want to grow into data engineering roles. Interns join a real data team, work with production datasets and are expected to meet engineering standards from day one.
This is not a helper or reporting-only role. Interns work on real production tasks under senior review.
