Business Intelligence (BI) Analytics Intern
Location: San Mateo, CA (Hybrid)
Duration: Summer 2026 (12 weeks)
Compensation: $5K/mo
Reports to: Head of RevOps
Company: Bedrock Data
About Bedrock
Data is moving faster than security can keep up, fragmented across clouds, SaaS apps, and AI systems, without the context teams need to protect it. Bedrock Data built the industry's first Metadata Lake to solve this: a living map of all your data that shows what it is, where it lives, who's using it, and how sensitive it is, without ever moving the data itself. This lets enterprises automate security and governance at scale, making data protection continuous and invisible instead of manual and disruptive. Global leaders in technology, finance, healthcare, and biotech trust Bedrock Data to make data security operational. With a $25M Series A led by Greylock, Bedrock is led by repeat founders and technologists who built industry-leading enterprise platforms at Sumo Logic, Rubrik, and Cohesity.

The Role
As our BI Analytics Intern, you won't just be pulling data, you will be building the systems that allow our team to understand it. You will play a foundational role in standing up our analytics environment in Salesforce, extracting actionable insights from transcripts, and establishing a source of truth for our internal data assets to ensure our Sales and Finance teams are completely aligned.
Key Responsibilities
Sales & Forecasting Dashboards: Take the lead on designing and deploying custom analytics within Salesforce. You will establish KPI reporting for pipeline health and sales velocity, and build robust forecasting dashboards to give leadership clear visibility into projected revenue and quota attainment. Audit existing Salesforce data quality and work with stakeholders to clean, normalize, and structure data for reliable reporting
Finance & RevOps Reporting: Bridge the gap between sales activity and financial performance. You will design finance dashboards in Salesforce to track critical metrics (e.g., ARR, pipeline, and win rates), ensuring the Finance team has real-time access to accurate, reliable data. You will help establish a cadence of automated, self-serve reporting for the Sales and Finance leadership teams
Transcript & LLM Data Integration: You will analyze LLM-generated transcripts, summaries, and sales call data to uncover trends in buyer sentiment, objection handling, and win/loss drivers.
Build the Internal Data Repository: Establish and structure an internal knowledge repository. You will document data models and build a data dictionary to ensure our analytics practices are scalable and easily accessible to the rest of the company.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner directly with Sales, Finance, RevOps, and Product teams to understand their unique data needs and translate business questions into technical requirements.
What We’re Looking For
Education: Currently pursuing (or recently graduated with) a degree in Business Analytics, Finance, Data Science, Information Systems, Economics, or a related field.
Business Acumen: A solid understanding of basic sales and financial metrics (pipeline coverage, forecasting, ARR).
AI Curiosity: A strong interest in Large Language Models (LLMs) and how conversational AI is transforming business intelligence.
Organizational Skills: A systems-thinker who enjoys building structured documentation and keeping complex information organized.
Bonus Points
Familiarity with Python or R for data manipulation.
Familiarity in SQL and experience with data visualization tools.
Prior exposure to Salesforce (or similar CRM platforms); you understand how sales and revenue data is structured (Leads, Opportunities, Accounts).
Curiosity building foundational analytics.
What You’ll Get Out of It
High-Impact Projects: You will build revenue and data infrastructure that the company will rely on long after your internship ends.
Mentorship: Work closely with senior leaders across multiple departments (Sales, Finance, Ops) who are invested in your growth.
Hands-on AI Experience: Real-world experience analyzing unstructured data using cutting-edge LLM tooling.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding J-1 Visa Sponsorship as a BI Analyst
Frame your training plan around BI tools
Your DS-2019 requires a structured training plan. Document specific skill objectives tied to tools like SQL, Power BI, or Tableau rather than listing generic analyst tasks. Designated sponsors approve plans that show measurable progression, not broad job descriptions.
Distinguish Intern from Trainee eligibility early
The Intern category requires current enrollment in a degree program. If you've graduated, you qualify as a Trainee, which requires at least one year of relevant work or study abroad. Applying under the wrong category causes DS-2019 delays that can collapse a job offer.
Target host employers with established data teams
Use Migrate Mate to filter for U.S. employers actively hosting J-1 visa exchange visitors in analytics and data roles. Companies with existing data infrastructure are far more likely to build compliant training plans around BI Analyst work than those hiring their first analyst.
Verify your host employer's E-Verify enrollment
Many designated sponsors require host employers to be enrolled in E-Verify before issuing a DS-2019. Confirm enrollment status directly with your prospective employer before accepting an offer, so a missing compliance step doesn't stall your start date.
Check your occupation against the 2-year rule
J-1 Trainees whose home countries funded their education, or who fill a skill shortage at home, may face a two-year home residency requirement before adjusting status in the U.S. USCIS and the State Department both evaluate this, so clarify your exposure before committing to a long-term U.S. plan.
Align your wage offer with prevailing wage benchmarks
Your host employer's offered compensation must align with local market rates for BI Analyst roles. Cross-reference the OFLC Wage Search and O*NET occupation data for your work location before your offer letter is finalized to avoid compliance issues with your designated sponsor.
BI Analyst J-1 Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Which J-1 program category fits a BI Analyst position?
The right category depends on your current status. If you're enrolled in a degree program and the role relates to your field of study, the Intern category applies. If you've already graduated and have at least one year of relevant professional or academic experience, you qualify under the Trainee category. Both categories require a formal training plan approved by a State Department-designated sponsor before you start.
Who actually sponsors the J-1 visa for a BI Analyst role, the employer or a separate organization?
The J-1 sponsor is always a State Department-designated organization, not the hiring employer. Organizations like Cultural Vistas or AIPT issue your DS-2019 and monitor program compliance. The company where you perform BI Analyst work is your host employer. The host sets your training environment, but the designated sponsor holds legal responsibility for your exchange visitor status.
How do I find U.S. employers willing to host a J-1 BI Analyst?
Use Migrate Mate to search for U.S. employers actively posting BI Analyst roles that align with J-1 exchange visitor eligibility. Not every employer understands the host-employer model or has previously worked with a designated sponsor, so targeting companies that already have data teams and compliance familiarity improves your chances of a smooth placement.
Can I extend my J-1 status if the BI Analyst project runs longer than planned?
Extensions are possible but must be initiated by your designated sponsor before your DS-2019 end date. The Trainee category allows a maximum of 18 months total, while the Intern category caps at 12 months. Your host employer needs to submit an updated training plan to the sponsor showing continued program objectives, so plan extension requests at least 60 days in advance.
Does the 2-year home residency requirement affect BI Analysts after their J-1 ends?
It can. The two-year home residency requirement applies if your government or a U.S. government agency funded your exchange program, or if your home country has identified your occupation as one it needs filled. BI Analyst roles in certain countries fall into this category. If the requirement applies, you must return home for two years before switching to most immigrant or long-term nonimmigrant statuses inside the U.S.
