Start date: January 8th, 2026
Salary range: $54,000 and $62,000 (annualized, prorated to your ~4-month placement).
The Role:
If it's good, GeoComply's engineers will build and test what you find.
What You’ll do:
Validate your ideas against real customer data, so what you propose catches bots the current system misses without flagging real users.
Hand your best signals to the engineering team in a form they can build and ship.
Embrace Stretch Opportunities (The Fun Part): As a GeoComply intern, expect to be pushed. You'll be given special, high-value projects outside the immediate scope of your role, a chance to explore new skills, test your limits, and adapt to new challenges across the business.
Requirements
A Master's or PhD-level computer science student or recent grad, or someone with equivalent depth.
- A real programmer with research instincts. You've done work where the answer wasn't known in advance.
An understanding of bleeding edge bot detection and fraud strategies, and you want to learn more.
Independent and relentlessly curious. You're at your best pulling apart how something works, not waiting for direction.
What this role is (and isn't)
This role is:
Original research, not just implementation. You generate the ideas and prove them out; our engineers build them.
Deeply independent. You'll set your own research direction and drive it.
Genuinely hard. This is a frontier problem with no answer key, built for someone who wants to disrupt how things work, not follow a plan.
- High potential for a return offer and full time role if your signal measurably extend detection.
This role is not:
A general software-engineering internship, or a role with a set checklist to execute.
A fit if you wait to be told what to do, or lose interest when a problem is wide open.
A slow ramp. You'll be expected to grasp the codebase and start contributing real ideas within your first few weeks, not months.
Bonus Points if (this is for things that are NICE to have, but not needed)
Prior research in bot detection, anti-fraud, anti-spoofing, or adversarial ML.
You've published or presented original technical research
What You'll Gain
Real ownership of original research on GeoComply's fraud and detection frontier, evaluated by the people who lead it.
A rare thing for a student: fundamental computer-science research that ships, and pays.
A genuine path to a full-time offer if your output is strong.
Room for Growth: We think young talent has so much to offer. Your work will have a meaningful impact on your team and the organization, and will allow you to grow your skills, network, and career.
Salary Range
Why is our salary range so large?
This role pays between $50,000 and $62,000 (annualized, prorated to your ~4-month placement). That's a wide band, let us explain why.
Our salary range covers every intern we hire across our Early Talent Program: whether this is your first internship or your third+, and whether you're at the beginning of your Bachelor's or finishing your Masters.
Because this role would prefer more schooling or equivalent experience than other internship roles, the range starts higher than other roles.
TL;DR: A first-internship student and a more experienced masters student are both encouraged to apply: they just won't be paid the same, and they shouldn't be.
About GeoComply’s Early Talent Program:
Most companies see interns as cheap labour, temporary workforce or someone to delegate the tasks you don’t want to do. This as a huge missed opportunity.
GeoComply views our Early Talent Program as an chance to hand select and shape the growth of our future leaders. To equip them with the skills we want our fut
