Job description

Identity & Access Management (IAM) Analyst (AI Training)

Identity is at the core of most modern enterprise security failures — and the AI systems of tomorrow need to understand why. We're partnering with leading AI research labs to find IAM specialists who can help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI models on real-world identity and access security scenarios. If you've spent time in the trenches of enterprise identity — debugging SSO misconfigurations, reviewing access control policies, or mapping privilege escalation paths — your expertise is exactly what's needed to make AI smarter about security.

• Organization: Alignerr

• Self-motivated and comfortable working independently on task-based assignments

Nice to Have

• Experience with identity platforms such as Okta, Azure AD, Ping, or similar
• Background in cloud IAM (AWS, GCP, Azure)
• Familiarity with zero-trust architecture frameworks
• Prior experience in security consulting, red teaming, or access governance

Why Join Us

• Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top-tier research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — work on your schedule, from anywhere
• Freelance autonomy with meaningful, intellectually engaging work
