AI / Emerging Tech Security Analyst (AI Training)

About The Role

What if your security expertise could directly shape how the world's most powerful AI systems defend themselves against attack We're looking for AI Security Analysts to probe, stress-test, and evaluate frontier AI models — identifying how they can be manipulated, misused, or pushed beyond their intended boundaries before those vulnerabilities cause real-world harm.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role for security professionals who are curious about AI and want to work at the cutting edge of both fields. If you think in threat models, love finding what breaks, and want your work to matter — this is the role for you.

Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

Analyze AI and LLM security scenarios to understand how models behave under adversarial or unexpected conditions
Review and evaluate cases involving prompt injection, data leakage, model abuse, and system misuse
Classify security vulnerabilities and recommend appropriate mitigations based on real-world impact and likelihood
Apply threat modeling frameworks to emerging AI technologies and deployment contexts
Help evaluate and improve AI system behavior so it remains safe, reliable, and aligned with security best practices
Work independently and asynchronously on task-based assignments at your own pace

Who You Are

Background in cybersecurity, information security, or a closely related field
Strong understanding of security threat modeling applied to modern software systems
Genuinely curious about how AI systems are built, deployed, and potentially exploited
Analytical and precise — you approach complex systems methodically and don't miss edge cases
Clear written communicator who can document findings and reasoning with structure and confidence
Self-motivated and reliable when working independently without supervision

Nice to Have

Hands-on experience with penetration testing, red teaming, or vulnerability research
Familiarity with large language models (LLMs), AI APIs, or prompt engineering concepts
Background in application security, cloud security, or API security
Experience with adversarial machine learning or AI safety concepts
Certifications such as OSCP, CEH, CISSP, or equivalent practical experience
