If you're excited about AI, passionate about building great products, and interested in how cybersecurity intersects with both, this is the role for you.

  • Partner with product managers to prototype and test AI-assisted workflows that improve team efficiency

  • Support testing efforts by identifying ways AI can enhance test case generation, coverage, and analysis

  • Document findings, present recommendations, and contribute to the team's AI adoption roadmap

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, design, and security teams to validate ideas

  • Other tasks and responsibilities as assigned

What You'll Need: 

  • Currently enrolled in an undergraduate program (any year welcome) in Computer Science, Information Systems, Product Design, Business, or a related field

  • Genuine interest in AI/ML and hands-on experience with AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, or similar)

  • Strong curiosity about product management and how products are built

  • Excellent communication skills — you can translate technical ideas for non-technical audiences

  • Self-starter mentality with a bias toward action and ownership

  • Must be authorized to work in the United States

It's a Plus if You Have:

  • Familiarity with product management frameworks (user stories, roadmaps, prioritization)

  • Interest in or experience with programming and application development (any language or platform)

  • Exposure to Lean thinking principles — you understand how to eliminate waste, run quick experiments, and iterate toward value

  • Interest in cybersecurity or prior exposure to the field

  • Experience with tools like Jira, Figma, Notion, or similar

  • Any coursework or projects involving machine learning, NLP, or data analysis
