About the internship

Learn by doing, surrounded by experts

DEFION started as a group of friends who loved tech. That culture is still alive: informal, curious, and expert-level. As an intern, you are part of the team from day one. You join stand-ups, shadow specialists, and dive into a real challenge.

Together we design your internship assignment to meet your course requirements while keeping it genuinely useful. Think: building a pentest tool, comparing security tooling for CI/CD pipelines, or researching new attack techniques. If your project wraps up early, there is internal training to keep you busy.

What you will do

  • Work on your graduation assignment, with real challenges and guidance from senior specialists
  • Shadow pentesters, researchers, and SOC analysts at work every day
  • Participate in your team's stand-up meetings
  • Start internal training if your project runs ahead of schedule

What you bring

  • Student at a university or university of applied sciences (technical or IT subject)
  • Final-year student looking for a graduation assignment
  • Independent, driven, motivated, and ambitious
  • Certificate of good conduct (VOG) or ability to obtain one
  • You thrive in an informal work environment
