Our Team:

We protect Bloomberg. The Product Security Architecture team is dedicated to making our products and technologies as secure as possible. We report into the CISO, but work closely with development teams, product teams, and others across the organization to integrate security into the product lifecycle from design through deployment. Our colleagues depend on us to be application, network, and host security pros. We specialize in defining security requirements, performing application security assessments, and providing developers with remediation advice. On any given day we're pulled in to evaluate a new system, review a proposed network change, or provide guidance on application security/coding best practices.

What's the role?

As a Summer Intern, you’ll join a team based on your skills and interests, and gain experiences that will help launch your career. We recognize your individuality and will work with you to identify the department that can benefit from your experiences and help to develop your professional and leadership skills.

In addition to your hands-on project work, you’ll attend a speaker series, designed to teach you about our company, people, and culture. There will also be plenty of opportunity to meet Bloomberg leaders at a variety of networking events. Of course we also want to give you the chance to get to know your peers, so together you’ll give back to the community at the annual Bloomberg Intern Day of Service, take part in social events including visits to cultural institutions and participate in professional training with interns from other departments.

Throughout the internship, you’ll be supported by your manager, mentor and a recruiter to ensure you receive regular feedback on your work and help navigating the company.
