What To Expect Consider before submitting an application:
This position is expected to start around August or September 2026 and continue through the Fall/Winter term (ending approximately Dec 2026) or continuing into Winter 2027 if available and there is an opportunity to do so. We ask for a minimum of 12 weeks, full-time and on-site, for most internships. Our internship program is for students who are actively enrolled in an academic program. Recent graduates seeking employment after graduation and not returning to school should apply for full-time positions, not internships.
International Students: If your work authorization is through CPT, please consult your school on your ability to work 40 hours per week before applying. You must be able to work 40 hours per week on-site. Many students will be limited to part-time during the academic year.
About The Team We are looking for an enthusiastic Offensive Application Security Intern to join our team, where you'll conduct simulated attacks on web and mobile applications to identify vulnerabilities, exploit weaknesses, and recommend robust defenses. Responsibilities include performing penetration testing, code reviews, and threat modeling; developing custom tools and scripts for exploit automation; collaborating with development teams to remediate issues; and staying abreast of emerging threats like OWASP Top 10 risks. The ideal candidate loves to play CTFs, possesses strong programming skills in languages like Python or JavaScript, and has interest in ethical hacking, with a passion for proactive security in fast-paced environments.
