This internship is for the Winter Term: January 4 - April 30, 2027
As a Software Engineer Intern on our Security team, you’ll get hands‑on experience keeping Super.com’s products secure across the software lifecycle
Your work spans offense and defense: building security tooling and proofs of concept (with AI), triaging findings from our security tools, and doing offensive testing to find issues before attackers do
You don’t need to be an expert; this is a learning role where you’ll build real AppSec and DevSecOps skills on a team that ships
You’ll report to our Staff Software Engineer - Security and work closely with product engineers, DevOps, and Fraud
Expect frequent collaboration, mentorship, and a quick pace, with real ownership of the projects you take on
You’ll ship meaningful security work during your internship
Help add security tooling and checks to our CI/CD pipelines
Build and improve security tooling by writing scripts and automation (primarily Python)
Use AI to help with day‑to‑day security work
Do offensive testing to find vulnerabilities in our products and build proofs of concept
Help triage security findings and patch the straightforward ones, like SCA version bumps
Work with engineers, DevOps, and Fraud, learning how security fits into how we build and ship
Services are authored as K8s‑based microservices powered by Python FastAPI backends and Typescript React front‑end code
Apps are built upon Postgres, Redis, Kafka, Elasticsearch, and Snowflake
Our infrastructure runs on AWS and leverages hosted infrastructure technologies such as EKS, MSK, Elasticache, and RDS. We use Istio for service mesh, Helm, TF and Crossplane for IAC, and Kyverno for policy‑as‑code enforcement
Security and application logs/metrics/events are managed through Datadog
As an AI-First engineering organization, we leverage modern AI development workflows using tools such as Cursor, Claude, and internally built AI agents to accelerate implementation and iteration across our codebases. You’ll own and advance our AI infrastructure in this role
