About The Position

Genmab is seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Information Security Intern to support the evaluation and fine-tuning of our application security scanning capabilities. This role will focus on assessing the accuracy of static analysis results, reducing false positives, and improving the overall signal-to-noise ratio of application security findings. As a technical, hands-on internship, the ideal candidate will have foundational knowledge of software development and secure coding practices, along with interest in DevSecOps, AppSec automation, and industry-recognized security standards such as OWASP and NIST SSDF.

Requirements

• Currently pursuing an undergraduate degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Software Engineering, or related technical field.
• Basic understanding of software development concepts (e.g., functions, APIs, version control, CI/CD).
• Familiarity with secure coding concepts or common vulnerability categories.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to detail.
• Ability to work collaboratively within a technical team environment.

Nice To Haves

• Coursework or hands-on experience with application security, DevSecOps, or SAST/DAST tools.
• Experience with one or more programming languages (e.g., Python, Java, JavaScript, C#, or similar).
• Exposure to security standards or frameworks such as OWASP, NIST SSDF, or CIS Benchmarks.
• Interest in automation, developer pipelines, or integrating security tools into SDLC processes.
• Prior internship, project work, or lab experience related to application security or software engineering.

Responsibilities

• Analyze and validate static application security findings generated by Checkmarx, identifying false positives and opportunities for tuning.
• Collaborate with engineers to improve rule configurations, scanning profiles, and filtering logic to enhance scanning accuracy.
• Research secure coding patterns and common vulnerability types (e.g., OWASP Top 10) to support informed triage decisions.
• Assist in documenting processes and improvements related to AppSec automation workflows.
• Support the Application Security team on roadmaps, metrics, and continuous improvement efforts.
