We are Duo, and we’re here to democratize security for everyone. Our mission is to protect the mission of our customers like Facebook, Twitter, Kayak and Etsy by making security simple.

We’re a diverse crew of makers and builders, skaters and coders, filmmakers and DJs, teachers and students brought together by a shared belief in adding value to the world. This diversity allows us to bring an empathetic approach to solve some of the most complex global business and security challenges faced today.

Our interns don't do busy work

They work on the same projects as full-time Engineers

Past Intern Contribution Examples:

Splunk App: Utilizing Duo's APIs, interns wrote a Python app to pull a customer's log data for real-time alerting and monitoring in Splunk. It was released to Splunkbase for general availability in 2017.

U2F Keys: This 2014 project allowed Duo customer’s to accept authentications from devices that support the FIDO U2F standard. In recent years, products like Facebook and Dropbox have started accepting logins from these "security keys". Duo interns worked with and shipped support for this emerging technology long before it was common in consumer products.

Gone Phishing: Duo Insight, our phishing platform, allows customers to send fake phishing emails to their employees simulating a real attack. Interns developed features in this platform preparing it for market launch in 2016. It's since been integrated into our core, paid product.

CONTINUOUS LEARNING

Creating an environment for professional growth

Duo Security engineers are often working in a place of ambiguity because there’s often little or no ground truth to inform developers on where to go. It takes a lot of user research and cross-collaboration to solve these challenges, but the company’s emphasis on personal growth for its team — personal development plans, the Duo Tech Summit, mentorship and generous training budgets — ensure that everyone’s suited for the job.

Duo is a place where your work can have an impact. Our business is still small enough that every single person’s work makes a huge difference for the company and its customers.

Challenge Seekers

Collaborating and innovating to improve technology

One of Menchaca’s most interesting projects was improving Duo’s continuous integration (CI) build times. “When I joined the company, our build process in CI took anywhere from 1-4 hours (or longer), and after we took ownership of that process, we now build and test in under 20 minutes, spawning multiple parallel pipelines,” Menchaca said. “Our focus on problem-solving leads us to interesting places.”

As cultures go, Duo’s is one of the most dynamic and positive I’ve ever been a part of. At the end of the day, you make progress, do great things and build relationships along the way.

PEOPLE FIRST

Products for the people who use them

People are focused on other things than securing access to their data. For Lindholm, that’s not an unfortunate fact: “Instead of having to spend valuable time convincing people to care, we get to focus on the work of ensuring we have the best product experience.” Through stakeholder and user personas — “Gary” and “Lee” are two of them — Duo’s entire technical team is creating products with the end experience in mind.

We have to make it so easy to use our product that the most secure path is actually the happy path for our end users and the people that deploy and administer our products.
