Security Engineering Project Intern (Watermark) - 2026 Start (BS/MS)

Descrizione del lavoro:

About the Team The Security Engineering Watermark team is dedicated to building industry-leading watermark algorithms, services, and technologies, and to supporting cross-functional teams in protecting our users, products, and infrastructure. In today's AI-driven content generation landscape, watermarking has become a critical technology for addressing challenges such as insider risk, content provenance and authenticity, copyright protection, and large-language model(LLM) safeguarding. In this team, you'll have a unique opportunity to gain first-hand exposure to the company's strategy on key security initiatives - particularly in building invisible watermark algorithms for AI-generated content(AIGC) and LLM models. You will also have the chance to experience the full lifecycle of security products and services, and are encouraged to participate in solving real-world problems across TikTok/ByteDance products at scale. As a project intern, you will have the opportunity to engage in impactful short-term projects that provide you with a glimpse of professional real-world experience. You will gain practical skills through on-the-job learning in a fast-paced work environment and develop a deeper understanding of your career interests. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis - we encourage you to apply early. Successful candidates must be able to commit to at least 3 months long internship period. Responsibilities: - Work with the team to design and develop new invisible watermark algorithms that effectively balance high robustness, high visual quality, and tamper resistance. - Explore security solutions in the AIGC era, building industry-leading capabilities for protecting LLM copyrights and tracing the provenance of AIGC. - Partner with mentors on rapid exploration sprints: frame hypotheses, design experiments, run evaluations, and iterate quickly from concept to proof-of-concept to early productization on frontier challenges. - Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams - including product, platform, and research - to understand real-world requirements and translate them into actionable solutions
