Job Description

Description

We are seeking a motivated and technically curious college senior or first-year master's student to join our IT team as a long-term, paid intern. This role goes beyond traditional help desk work and is designed for someone interested in IT operations, security, automation, and cloud environments.

Unlike internships focused primarily on ticket resolution, this position emphasizes proactive IT operations and security improvement. While you will support Tier 1 help desk activities and device setup, your primary focus will be strengthening and improving the configuration, automation, monitoring, and security posture of our Microsoft and Google environments.

This is not a summer-only internship. It is intentionally structured to help transition you from academia into a professional career in IT or Cybersecurity, working alongside experienced professionals and using real-world tools to protect organizational systems and data.

Key Responsibilities
Security Monitoring & Automation
  • Design and implement proactive monitoring solutions using Microsoft technologies, DAX, and Python to identify potential security concerns and operational risks.
  • Assist in automating routine security and IT operational tasks using scripting and workflow tools.

Environment Configuration & Hardening
  • Audit, assess, and improve security configurations within Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace tenants.
  • Support initiatives to strengthen identity, access, and tenant-level security controls.

Data Visualization & Reporting
  • Build and maintain dashboards and reports using Power BI to visualize security metrics, trends, and anomalies.
  • Translate technical data into clear, actionable insights for IT and security teams.

IT Support
  • Provide Tier 1 help desk support for internal users, including hardware and software troubleshooting.
  • Assist with new-hire onboarding, device provisioning, and first-time device configuration.

Documentation & Knowledge Management
  • Document systems, processes, tools, and monitoring workflows to support long-term operational effectiveness.
  • Contribute to a growing internal knowledge base for IT and security operations.

Skill Development & Professional Growth
  • Engage in self-driven learning to expand skills in cybersecurity, automation, and scripting (Python and PowerShell).
  • Learn industry best practices while gaining hands-on experience with enterprise IT and security tooling.
