Security Intern, Threat Operations - Winter 2027

1Password is growing. We’ve surpassed $400M in ARR and we’re continuing to accelerate, earning a spot on the Forbes Cloud 100 for four years in a row and teaming up with iconic partners like Oracle Red Bull Racing.

At 1Password, we’re building the foundation for a safe, productive digital future. Our mission is to unleash employee productivity without compromising security by ensuring every identity is authentic, every application sign-in is secure, and every device is trusted. We innovated the market-leading enterprise password manager and pioneered Unified Access Management, a new cybersecurity category built for the way people and AI agents work today. As one of the most loved brands in cybersecurity, we take a human-centric approach in everything from product strategy to user experience. Over 180,000 businesses, from Fortune 100 leaders to the world’s most innovative AI companies, trust 1Password to help their teams securely adopt the SaaS and AI tools they need to do their best work.

If you're excited about the opportunity to contribute to the digital safety of millions, to work alongside a team of curious, driven individuals, and to solve hard problems in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, then we want to hear from you. Come join us and help shape a safer, simpler digital future.

Threat Operations is part of 1Password’s Security organization, bringing together Cyber Threat Intelligence, Detection Engineering, and Security Incident Response. Together we study how threat actors operate, turn that into high-quality detections, and respond quickly when something goes wrong. Interns work across all three teams, with time and focus shaped by your interests and our needs, so you see how intelligence becomes real defense. We care about turning intelligence into action, and we value blameless learning and psychological safety.

This is a remote opportunity within Canada/US. This position will be for 4 months - January to April 2027.

• Analyze incoming threat intelligence, assess its credibility and relevance to 1Password, and run IOC sweeps across our environment.

• Own pieces of work across the threat management lifecycle, turning intel into recommendations for detection, incident response, and vulnerability management.

• Join the alert triage rotation and learn how signal quality, enrichment, and response fit together.

• Develop and test detection rules and response agents, and contribute to our detection-as-code and response-as-code platforms.

• Build orchestration workflows to automate triage, enrichment, and response, using AI tools to help design and build them.

• Confidence: A willingness to take on new challenges, and see them through to completion.

• Humility: You're not afraid to ask "stupid" questions and make mistakes (as long as you learn from them).

• Curiosity: You look for better ways of doing things, even if everyone seems happy with how they are.

• Teamwork: We work together, and succeed as a team!

• Familiarity with Git and managing infrastructure or detections as code, including Terraform.

• Scripting or programming experience, such as Python or Go, and comfort working with APIs.

• Exposure to SIEM and SOAR tools, logs, or writing detection rules and queries, through coursework, labs, or projects.

• Experience using AI tools to build or automate workflows, with a healthy skepticism about their output.

• Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, plus security coursework, CTFs, home labs, or a security club.

Our Engineering, Product, and Design teams are thoughtfully integrating AI across the full software and product development lifecycle to move faster without sacrificing quality or security. In practice, that looks like engineers using AI-assisted coding tools to accelerate reviews and catch bugs earlier, product managers synthesizing user research at scale, and designers rapidly prototyping and iterating with AI-generated mockups. We approach AI the same way we approach security: with clear principles, human accountability at every consequential decision point, and rigorous evaluation before anything ships to customers.
