Asset Protection receives signals from a wide range of technologies — and today those signals are largely reviewed independently rather than through a single risk lens. This role brings them together. Work includes profiling and joining data across platforms, defining with investigators what a credible early risk indicator actually looks like, building a working prototype that surfaces stores, markets, or offenders showing converging signals, and validating those findings against closed cases. The intern will also develop the measurement framework that shows what prevented loss is worth. The intern may also get exposure to other activities of the function, including: Organized retail crime, fraud, and internal investigationsAsset protection technology evaluation and pilot governanceData privacy and governance considerations for surveillance technologiesLaw enforcement and prosecutor partnership workRemote Operations Center and alert response operationsBroader understanding of Meijer's Asset Protection organization Qualifications Progress toward a Bachelor's or Master's degree in data science, analytics, statistics, information systems, industrial engineering, or a related fieldCoursework or project experience with Python, R, or SQL, and with a visualization tool such as Power BI or TableauFamiliarity with anomaly detection, pattern recognition, or machine learning concepts — exposure is expected, expertise is notAbility to translate analytical findings for a non-technical leadership audienceAbility to work flexible shifts (primarily days) to gain exposure to the full operation of the businessIntellectual curiosity - asks why the data looks the way it does, not only what it saysDrive for results - moves work forward with limited direction and a defined scopeCustomer focus - dedicated to meeting expectations of internal and external customersRelationship Skills - can create positive working relationships with customers, team members, leadership, and other internal and external constituenciesCommunication Skills - conveys the right information in writing and verbally Possible Career Path Opportunities Asset Protection Shrink AnalystAsset Protection Corporate InvestigatorAsset Protection Organized Retail Crime InvestigatorCorporate Asset Protection Specialist
