The Position
We're looking for builders. You'll use modern AI coding agents - paired with strong engineering mentorship - to design, build, and ship production-grade applications. Over your internship you'll deliver multiple apps, both internal tools used daily across OPSWAT and customer-facing features, with real users and real impact. You'll learn to wield AI agents as a force multiplier while developing the judgment to ship secure, reliable, well-architected software.
What you'll do
- Build and ship full-stack applications end-to-end, from spec to deployment, using AI coding agents under the guidance of senior engineers.
- Turn ambiguous problems into working products that teams across OPSWAT actually use.
- Review and verify AI-generated code for correctness, security, and quality before it ships.
- Write clean specs, prompts, and tests; iterate quickly on feedback.
- Collaborate with product, design, and security stakeholders.
- Contribute to internal tooling and customer-facing features alike.
What we're looking for
- Currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent demonstrable ability).
- Solid programming fundamentals: data structures, APIs, databases, version control (Git).
- Experience building something end-to-end and shipping it - a side project, hackathon app, open-source contribution, or course capstone that real people used.
- Hands-on experience with AI coding tools (e.g., Claude, Cursor, Copilot, or similar) and genuine curiosity about agentic workflows.
- Strong written communication and the ability to work independently with guidance.
- Security-conscious mindset and care for quality.
Nice to have
- Cloud/deployment experience (AWS, GCP, Azure, Docker).
- Familiarity with cybersecurity concepts or interest in the domain.
- A portfolio, GitHub, or live demos we can look at.
What you'll get
- Mentorship from senior engineers and a clear path to shipping production software.
- Ownership of real projects with visible business impact.
- Exposure to how AI is reshaping software engineering at a leading cybersecurity company.
