Position Summary:
We are seeking a Cybersecurity & AI/Data Governance Intern to bridge the gap between security compliance and engineering. In this role you will assist in the design, audit, and implement technical guardrails that protect our infrastructure and govern our data and AI systems.
This position is ideal for an engineer who understands full-stack architectures, infrastructure-as-code, and systems administration, and wants to apply those skills to modern security engineering, Identity Governance and Administration (IGA), and secure AI deployment.
By the conclusion of this internship, you will progress beyond basic compliance tasks and actively contribute to the development of solutions addressing enterprise security and AI needs. Through your work, you will gain practical experience in implementing automated identity lifecycle management, conducting security audits for both cloud and on-premises infrastructures, and establishing data governance policies that enable the secure expansion of AI initiatives.

Systems Security & Infrastructure Integrity
- Harden enterprise Linux and containerized environments.
- Configure firewall, VLANs, and network protocols to segment development, production, and HPC environments.
- Monitor logs and patch systems to address vulnerabilities.
AI & Data Governance Frameworks
- Define data workflows and ensure privacy and retention in data pipelines (LDAP/ZFS).
- Set security controls for Vision-Language Models and vector searches to prevent unauthorized data/model access.
- Oversee GPU resources and enforce usage policies to support compliance.
Preferred Technical Experience
- Languages: Python, TypeScript, Java/Kotlin, or C/C++.
- Identity & Networking: Understanding of OIDC, SAML, LDAP, TCP/IP, DNS, and Firewalls.
- Infrastructure & DevOps: Practical experience with Linux systems administration (RHEL preferred), virtualization/containers (Docker, Kubernetes, Proxmox), and CI/CD automation (GitHub Actions, Ansible, Terraform).
- Database & Storage: Familiarity with caching layers (Redis/Valkey), structured/unstructured databases (SQL, MongoDB), and redundant storage file systems (ZFS).
Compensation Range:

Get Access To All JobsCybersecurity Analyst CPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Does my cybersecurity coursework have to match my CPT job duties exactly?
Not word-for-word, but the connection must be direct and documentable. Your DSO will evaluate whether duties like threat hunting, SIEM analysis, or penetration testing align with your enrolled courses. A role focused purely on IT helpdesk or hardware support is unlikely to qualify, even within a cybersecurity team. Bring a copy of your job description to your DSO appointment.
Can I do CPT at a cybersecurity consultancy or staffing firm rather than an end-client employer?
CPT authorization is issued for a specific employer of record, not the end client site. If a staffing firm places you at a client's security operations center, your I-20 lists the staffing firm as your employer. Confirm with your DSO that the staffing arrangement is acceptable and that the firm can provide an offer letter detailing your actual cybersecurity duties.
How do I find cybersecurity employers who are comfortable with CPT authorization?
Search Migrate Mate to identify employers with a documented history of sponsoring international students in information security roles. Firms that regularly file DOL Labor Condition Applications for cybersecurity positions already understand work authorization timelines, making the CPT conversation more straightforward than with employers who have no prior experience.
Does using 12 months of full-time CPT disqualify me from OPT later?
Yes. Using 12 or more months of full-time CPT eliminates your OPT eligibility entirely, per USCIS regulations. Part-time CPT of any duration and full-time CPT under 12 months do not affect your OPT. If you're weighing a full-time CPT offer against preserving OPT for post-graduation employment, discuss the tradeoff with your DSO before accepting.
What happens to my CPT authorization if my cybersecurity role changes scope mid-semester?
Your CPT is authorized for a specific position and employer. If your duties shift substantially, such as moving from a defensive security role to offensive red-team work not covered by your original authorization, your DSO may require a new CPT approval and an updated I-20. Notify your DSO before the scope change takes effect, not after.
