Software Engineering Intern - Platform, Security & AI
What We're Looking For
- Passion & Drive: Strong willingness to learn, innovate, and contribute to the intersection of Cyber Security, Data Resilience, and AI.
- Technical Foundation: High level of comfort in a major programming language (Python, Go, or Java preferred). You should understand core data structures, algorithms, and how to independently debug your own code.
- Security & AI Knowledge: Familiarity with Cyber & Data Security practices, alongside a foundational understanding of AI Agents, LLMs, and Agent Evaluations.
- Infrastructure & Tooling: Experience with Kubernetes and containerization.
- Collaboration: Basic knowledge of Git and GitHub for collaborative software development.
Nice To Have
- Cloud & Infrastructure: Working knowledge of Kubernetes/Helm and an understanding of the basics of CI/CD pipelines.
- Architecture: Exposure to event-driven systems (e.g., Redis Pub/Sub, NATS) and experience with workflow orchestration systems like Temporal.
- GenAI Expertise: Understanding or prior experience with GenAI concepts like RAG, Vector Databases, and Embeddings.
- AI Frameworks & Pipelines: Usage of AI frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LangGraph) and an understanding of how to develop, tune, and deploy AI/ML frameworks and Data Model pipelines.
What You Could Be Working On
- Backend & Infrastructure: Write backend code and automation in Go within a large, production-grade codebase. You will learn established patterns for scalable infrastructure under the guidance of senior engineers, deploying and managing containerized applications across Kubernetes clusters and AWS infrastructure (EKS, ECR, IAM).
- AI & Agent Development: Build long-running agents that unleash the full power of the Securiti AI + Veeam platforms for CISOs and security analysts. This includes unlocking automated breachimpact analysis, compliance reporting, and data access auditing across hybrid multicloud environments.
- Agent Evaluation & Knowledge Pipelines: Develop Agent Evaluation Pipelines to measurably assess reliability and task completion rates. You will also build knowledge discovery pipelines that surface institutional knowledge (policy research, compliance frameworks) into agent-consumable layers for sharper decision-making.
- Security & Vulnerability Management: Analyze Kubernetes deployment configurations to identify and fix security gaps. You will help manage the CVE lifecycle by identifying and patching vulnerabilities in container images to harden the platform.
- Tooling & Reliability: Develop internal tooling, testing harnesses, and security utilities to improve team productivity. You will also execute and validate API and cross-service integration tests to ensure system reliability as the platform evolves.
