Start Date: 2nd June 2025

End Date: 22nd August 2025

Location: Fully Remote but must be based in UK/Ireland

About the Role:

The Professional Services Internship program is fully remote and requires no travel. However, interns are invited to work from the CrowdStrike office located closest to their remote location, and typically will travel to London at least three times during the Summer to meet the wider team. You will not be able to work outside of the UK / Ireland during this internship.

What You’ll Do:

The CrowdStrike Services Internship Program is a 12-week full-time summer internship that provides individuals with experience across all major aspects of the CrowdStrike Services business, with a focus on red teaming.

What You’ll Need: 

• You must be working towards a BA/BSc/BEng or MA/MSci/MEng undergraduate degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Forensics, Computer Science, Computer Systems Engineering, Electronic & Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, Information Security, Information Systems, Information Assurance, Information Security Management, Intelligence Studies, Data Science or any other related field.

This will mean that you should be scheduled to graduate during the Summer of 2026 or December 2025.

• Successful applicants will join the UK Red Team team in a remote position. The team operates a “hybrid” (predominantly remote) model, combining four days per week of remote work with one day per week in our East London office near Shoreditch. Whilst you do not need to be based in the Greater London area, successful applicants will be invited to travel to London approximately once every four weeks (at CrowdStrike’s expense) to meet and collaborate with the team.
