Bacula can certainly do what you are looking for.

What I would be concerned about is putting an intern in charge of your backup 
solution - any backup solution. When disaster strikes, who will remember how 
the backup works and how to restore?

The other concern is that network backup requires some experience with 
networking, to deal with such things as performance/backup windows, shoeshining 
(if you use tape for backup), security, ...

On the flip side, bacula actually is a great learning experience for the intern.

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure 
contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, 
security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this 
data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
