Internship security in software development

At Trifork we're looking for an intern on the subject of security in software development.

Internship · Amsterdam, Netherlands

About Trifork Amsterdam

At Trifork Amsterdam, we're working on custom enterprise applications for various clients. Some have their own requirements for secure development, and others rely on Trifork to guide them.

To make sure all teams and projects are using a common base standard, and have the knowledge and means to improve their software development lifecycle when it comes to security, we are looking for an intern to assist in improving the current way of working.

About the internship

You will work together with one or some of the teams to determine the aspects of the software development lifecycle where we can influence and improve the way we build software for the customer.

Some of the topics on the table include:

  • dependency checking (containers, libraries)

    • e.g. OWASP, Snyk, SBOM

  • code analysis (static & dynamic)

    • SonarQube, fuzzing, ...

  • available tooling (OSS, commercial)

  • pipeline integration

    • Gitlab, Github, maven, Gradle, ...

  • reporting & alerting

The outcome would ideally be a set of recommendations to improve the base level of security in our diverse development lifecycles and directions on how to maintain and improve on that.
This could include a comparison of the current market we're working on and the adoption of tools and techniques by organisations in the market.

About you

  • studying at a Dutch university or university of applied sciences and looking for a graduation project (bachelor or master level)

    • an institute in the Amsterdam area is preferred

  • studying or specialising in software security

    • having some experience with the Java platform is strongly recommended

  • Fluent in English is a must, and Dutch is a plus
