Are you interested in how large organizations manage risk, strengthen controls, and build sustainable governance processes? Trinity Industries is seeking a motivated Information Risk Management Program Intern to help redesign a key enterprise initiative that will shape how we monitor and maintain compliance across our technology ecosystem.
This is a high-impact internship where you’ll work directly with Information Risk Management (IRM) leaders and technology teams to rebuild a program that supports continuous compliance, improves visibility, and reduces risk across applications, infrastructure, hardware, and IT services.
What You’ll Work On:
You’ll play a central role in reimagining the Information Compliance Self‑Assessment Program, including:
- Evaluating the original program design to identify root causes for low adoption and scalability challenges
- Developing a structured, directive‑aligned question library based on policies, standards, and requirements
- Designing a modernized assessment and routing model aligned to control themes and system types
- Identifying automation opportunities using Microsoft 365 tools such as SharePoint, Power Automate, Excel, and Power BI
- Supporting reporting and documentation to prepare for enterprise rollout and audit readiness
- Your work will directly contribute to Trinity’s broader goals of strengthening governance, improving compliance posture, and enhancing control effectiveness across the organization
What You’ll Deliver:
By the end of the internship, you’ll produce:
- A directive‑aligned question library
- A redesigned self‑assessment workflow
- A documentation package supporting process adoption
- A dashboard or reporting concept
- A final presentation summarizing your recommendations and design decisions
These deliverables will give you tangible, portfolio‑ready experience in governance and compliance design
What You’ll Learn:
- This internship offers exposure across cybersecurity, IT, and enterprise governance and you'll gain hands-on experience with governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) operations
- Insight into how directive documents translate into real-world controls and compliance activities
- Skills in process design, workflow modeling, and structured documentation
- Practical experience using Microsoft 365 tools for automation and reporting
- Strengthened analytical, communication, and stakeholder‑engagement capabilities
What We’re Looking For:
- Candidates pursuing a bachelor’s or master’s degree in Cybersecurity, Information Systems, Business, Data Analytics, Computer Science, or a related field
- Strong analytical and critical-thinking skills
- Clear written and verbal communication abilities
- Comfort working cross-functionally with technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Familiarity with Microsoft Office or Microsoft 365 applications
