Application Security Analyst (AI Training)
About The Role
We partner with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, safer AI systems — and we need security professionals who understand how software actually breaks in the real world.
As an Application Security Analyst, you'll work with realistic security scenarios to help frontier AI models learn how to assess, prioritize, and reason about application risk. Your expertise doesn't just protect systems — it shapes the next generation of AI security intelligence.
