An internship at Rootsec is not a side project. You join the team, work on real engagements for real clients and learn from experienced ethical hackers every day. If you are studying IT or information security and you want to find out what offensive security work is really like, this is the place.

Eligibility: UAE-based candidates only. You must already live in the UAE and hold a valid residence visa, or otherwise be legally entitled to work in the UAE without employer sponsorship. We do not offer visa sponsorship or relocation for this role, and applications that depend on either will not be processed.

What you will do

  • Take part in real penetration tests under the guidance of a senior tester.
  • Research vulnerabilities, reproduce findings and document them properly.
  • Learn how red teaming, OSINT, phishing simulations and client reporting work in practice.
  • Carry out your own research or graduation project, with our support.

What we expect

  • You are enrolled in a Bachelor’s or Master’s programme in IT, computer science or information security.
  • You have a clear idea of what you want to learn or research.
  • Good command of English, spoken and written.
  • You ask questions, you are critical of your own work and you are not afraid to challenge ours.
  • You find the field genuinely interesting and you are willing to put in the hours.
  • You are a student at a UAE institution, or you already hold a UAE residence visa that permits an internship.

What we offer

  • A monthly internship allowance.
  • Hands‑on experience with real cases, not simulated exercises.
  • Daily guidance from experienced ethical hackers.
  • Room to run your research or thesis your way.
  • A network in the UAE cybersecurity community.
  • Strong candidates are offered a position after the internship.

Employment type: full-time internship, duration in consultation with your institution.
