Data Science Intern

Are you looking for an internship or student job where you can make a difference? Does helping an innovative tech company reach its full potential sound like your cup of tea? And do you want to do all of this while being part of a friendly bunch of people who want to modernize the logistics world together with you? 

Peripass is a Ghent-based SaaS scale-up, founded in 2016, that digitalises and optimises the logistics sector. With our Yard Management platform, we help industrial and logistics companies such as Bridgestone, Alpro and Saint-Gobain manage the complete flow of trucks and trailers on their sites smoothly and efficiently. Today, we support more than 15,000 truck drivers every day.

Each driver goes through a fixed process (such as Expected, Waiting for dispatch, Checked-in, …), with customer-specific variations and extensions (for example sub-statuses). In the autumn of 2025, we launched a first version of our Exception Monitor. This is currently rule-based (for example: create an exception when a driver waits longer than 20 minutes for dock assignment), but it is already being used very enthusiastically by our customers.

Our ambition is to take this Exception Monitor to the next level by applying data science / machine learning.

As an intern, you will work on concrete, high-impact ch
