I korthet

Join Microsoft as an AI Security Research Intern to work on autonomous attack disruption using AI and LLMs. Analyze attacker TTPs, build real-time defense systems, and protect millions of users globally. This hybrid role offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience at the intersection of AI and security.

Ansvarsområden

  • Investigate real-world advanced attacker TTPs and apply AI techniques (LLMs, agentic workflows) to develop AI-augmented protection logic.
  • Analyze massive telemetry sets using big-data query languages (KQL) and AI-driven methods to identify novel malicious patterns and engineer detection rules.
  • Contribute to the design and implementation of AI-powered capabilities for autonomous threat disruption.
  • Refine protection coverage by analyzing attack telemetry to improve existing detection logic accuracy and performance.
  • Document findings from attack data analysis to improve overall protection logic and system-wide security posture.
  • Partner with engineering and product teams to translate research insights into production-ready AI systems.
  • Explore and prototype with emerging AI tools and frameworks to accelerate security research workflows.

Krav

  • Must have at least 3 additional semesters before graduation – graduation date Winter 2028 or later.
  • Proven hands-on experience in security research, threat hunting, or detection engineering roles.
  • Proficiency in Python or similar languages, focusing on clean, functional, and scalable code.
  • Hands-on experience with AI technologies (ML models, LLMs, agentic frameworks) and a passion for using AI to solve real-world problems.

Önskade kvalifikationer

  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's Degree in Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Data Science, AI/Machine Learning, or related field.
  • Deep understanding of the modern threat landscape, including familiarity with lateral movement techniques, credential theft, or cloud-native attack vectors.
  • Previous experience reasoning over large-scale datasets using big-data query languages (KQL/Kusto, SQL, or similar).
  • A proven 'Hunter' mindset with a track record of identifying novel malicious patterns and converting them into actionable alerts.
  • Experience with LLMs, prompt engineering, or agentic AI frameworks (e.g., LangChain, Semantic Kernel, AutoGen).
  • Interest in the intersection of AI and adversarial behavior.

Förmåner

  • Build community and explore passions at Microsoft.
  • Work with thousands of University interns from around the world.
  • Mentorship from experienced researchers.
  • Opportunity to see AI-powered research transformed into autonomous defense systems.
  • Embedded directly into research cycles on high-stakes projects.
  • Collaborate with global teams.
  • Empowerment to build community, explore passions, and achieve goals.
  • Opportunity to bring solutions and ideas to life.
  • Work on cutting-edge technology.
