About this role:
Wells Fargo is seeking an Information Security Associate within Infrastructure Engineering & Architecture, to support the Database Engineering team. Infrastructure Engineering & Architecture is responsible for delivering and supporting enterprise platforms across global environments including cloud, data centers, distributed systems, and networking. This organization ensures stability, scalability, and secure operation of enterprise infrastructure services that support business operations and customer-facing capabilities.
In this role, you will support infrastructure and network security initiatives by assisting with database activity monitoring using tools such as IBM Guardium and supporting direct-to-Splunk logging pipelines across multiple platforms, while helping coordinate ServiceNow-driven changes end-to-end, including planning, validation, and production readiness. In partnership with engineering, operations, and stakeholder teams, you will track dependencies and drive execution while leveraging scripting (e.g., Python), appliance configuration, evidence validation, SIEM support, and asset tracking to ensure consistent, high-quality delivery through strong operational oversight.
This role is ideal for early-career professionals interested in infrastructure engineering, enterprise logging, and technical execution within large-scale environments. Candidates will gain hands-on experience with tools such as Guardium and Splunk, exposure to coordinated delivery across teams, and a strong foundation in both technical support and execution management, while developing skills in automation, platform operations, and enterprise infrastructure services.

Upon successful completion of the program, participants are eligible for promotion and continued employment, subject to business needs and performance expectations.
