About the Role

Worldly is seeking a Security Operations Intern to support the development and documentation of our security program during an active compliance and audit cycle.

Reporting to the Security Operations Manager, this internship focuses on security governance, documentation, and regulatory analysis rather than operational ownership. The role provides hands-on experience helping mature a security program by improving documentation, supporting compliance preparation, and assisting with risk and framework analysis.

This internship is ideal for someone interested in security governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC) who enjoys structured problem-solving, research, and documentation.

What You'll Do

Projects and scope of work may include:

• Building and maintaining security program documentation in Confluence, including standard operating procedures (SOPs), standards, and security playbooks

• Translating security roadmap initiatives into clear, structured, audit-ready documentation

• Researching security frameworks and regulatory requirements and developing decision trees to support applicability and prioritization decisions

• Assisting with compliance preparation, including organizing audit evidence, mapping controls to frameworks, and tracking identified gaps

• Supporting high-level infrastructure and security reviews through documentation, system mapping, and risk identification (no production system changes)

• Helping structure documentation and materials that improve internal understanding of security program maturity and priorities

The intern will collaborate closely with Security leadership and gain exposure to how security programs are structured, documented, and maintained within a growing technology company.

What You’ll Gain

This internship offers the opportunity to:

• Gain hands-on experience in security governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) within a growing technology company

• Learn how organizations structure and document security programs and compliance frameworks

• Develop practical skills in security documentation, regulatory research, and control mapping

• Gain exposure to real-world audit preparation and compliance processes

• Build experience translating complex technical requirements into clear documentation and decision-support materials

• Collaborate with experienced security professionals in a fully remote environment

We’d Like To See

• Strong written communication and documentation skills

• Ability to analyze requirements and present clear, structured conclusions

• High attention to detail and comfort handling sensitive or confidential information

• Interest in security governance, risk, and compliance

• Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with technical teams

Nice to have:

• Familiarity with security frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, or NIST

• Experience with Confluence or similar documentation tools

• Academic or personal interest in cybersecurity, risk management, or compliance
