Apply nowLearn 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
