Offensive Security Analyst (Structured / Non-Exploit) — AI Training
About The Role
What if your offensive security instincts could directly shape how AI understands and reasons about real-world threats? We're looking for experienced security professionals to analyze adversarial attack paths, model threat behavior, and help build the next generation of AI systems that understand cybersecurity at a deep, practical level. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role — no exploit development required. You'll bring your red team mindset to structured adversarial reasoning: mapping how attacks unfold, where defenses break down, and how risk spreads across modern environments.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Analyze real-world attack paths, kill chains, and adversary strategies across a range of modern environments
Classify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and defensive gaps in realistic system scenarios
Review and evaluate red team-style scenarios and intrusion narratives for technical accuracy and depth
Generate, label, and validate adversarial reasoning data used to train and evaluate frontier AI systems
Articulate how attacks unfold, what impact they create, and what tradeoffs defenders face — in clear, structured language
Work independently and asynchronously on task-based assignments at your own pace
Who You Are
2+ years of hands-on experience in pentesting, red teaming, or a blue-team role with deep attack knowledge
You understand how real attacks actually unfold in production environments — not just in theory
Able to clearly explain attack chains, attacker objectives, and defensive implications to a technical audience
Naturally systematic and detail-oriented — you think in adversary mindsets and can map threat behavior end-to-end
Strong written communicator who can translate complex technical concepts into structured, accessible analysis
Comfortable working independently without close supervision
Nice to Have
Experience with MITRE ATT&CK, threat modeling frameworks, or structured kill-chain analysis
Background in threat intelligence, incident response, or security architecture
Familiarity with cloud environments, Active Directory, or network security concepts
Prior work annotating, labeling, or evaluating technical content
Interest in AI safety, AI security, or how AI systems reason about complex domains
Why Join Us
Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside leading AI research labs
Fully remote and flexible — structure your work around your schedule
Freelance autonomy with meaningful, intellectually engaging work
Apply your offensive security expertise to a genuinely novel and high-impact domain
Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
