About the job

Ready to jumpstart your career this summer? Now is your chance to apply for Sievo’s Summer Internship Program!

If you haven't come across Sievo before, here is a quick overview: Sievo is a rapidly growing software-as-a-service (SaaS) growth company headquartered in Helsinki with offices in Chicago and Bucharest. As the global leader in procurement analytics, we serve over 150 large, multinational companies including Mars, Unilever, Kellogg's, Levi's, and T-Mobile, among others.

What you can expect from Summer Academy:

  • Hands on work and real-life projects. You will be working on real tasks and projects, so you will be taking on responsibilities, contributing to your team’s success, and able to see your impact.

  • Career opportunities. Our paid Summer Internship takes place approximately between May and August. After completion of this program, you could potentially join us as a full-time Sievonian.

  • Amazing people. Our greatest perk is Sievonians! You will work together with talented and caring people in a diverse environment representing more than 350 individuals from over 39 different nationalities. Our US office makes up a tight knit group of roughly 50 people giving it a community feel with the benefits of being a part of a mid-sized organization.

  • Hybrid working. We'd love for you to spend some time in our office which is in an amazing location (no kidding, just in the heart of Chicago). That said, we also recognize that you may want to work remotely at times, so we’ll be flexible in that regard.

  • FUN. No one wants to miss out on all the fun during summer, right? We host office lunches, happy hours, our annual summer party and other team events and hangouts to make sure you have an unforgettable summer.

  • Our internship runs roughly from May-August depending on your academic demands.

Sounds great so far, right? Below are listed our open positions for the summer, so don’t hesitate to choose the one(s) that spark your interest and send in your application!

For the role it’s great if:

  • You are in the mid–to-final stages of your studies in Engineering, Technology, Supply Chain, Information Systems, Computer Science or other Business fields

  • You have fluent English skills. Knowing more than one language can be a plus!

  • You have the courage to question things: we believe development comes from challenging the status quo.

  • You’re not only looking for a summer internship, but instead a place where you can belong, learn, and grow.

Did you get excited?

Great! Then apply through our recruitment system by April 15th. Please specify when you would be able to start. We will review applications during the application period and invite potential future Summer Seals to an online interview in late April.
