Job description

About The Role

AI systems are only as safe as the people who test them — and that's where you come in. We're looking for security-minded professionals to probe, stress-test, and red-team AI models, uncovering weaknesses before they become real-world problems. Your work will directly shape the safety and reliability of AI products used by millions of people worldwide.

About The Role

AI systems are only as safe as the people who test them — and that's where you come in. We're looking for security-minded professionals to probe, stress-test, and red-team AI models, uncovering weaknesses before they become real-world problems. Your work will directly shape the safety and reliability of AI products used by millions of people worldwide.

This is a remote, flexible contract role where your expertise in cybersecurity and adversarial thinking translates into meaningful impact on one of the most critical frontiers in tech.

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

What You'll Do

• Conduct red-teaming exercises to surface security weaknesses in AI systems
• Design and execute adversarial prompts and edge-case scenarios to test model guardrails
• Evaluate AI outputs for safety, bias, and policy compliance
• Document vulnerabilities, exploits, and unexpected behaviors in clear, structured reports
• Collaborate with engineering teams to recommend practical mitigations and improvements
• Stay sharp on emerging AI security threats, jailbreak techniques, and evolving best practices
• Help define and refine security evaluation rubrics and testing protocols

Who You Are

• Solid grounding in cybersecurity concepts — threat modeling, penetration testing, or vulnerability research
• Hands-on experience with AI/ML systems, LLMs, or prompt engineering
• A creative, adversarial mindset — you love finding the cracks in things to make them stronger
• Strong written communication skills for clear, actionable reporting
• Self-directed and comfortable working asynchronously on task-based assignments
• Familiarity with open-source AI platforms is a plus
• Background in infosec, ethical hacking, or AI safety research is a bonus — but not a dealbreaker

Why This Role Stands Out

• Work on the cutting edge — AI security is one of the fastest-growing and most consequential fields in tech right now
• Real impact — your findings directly improve AI systems used by millions
• Full flexibility — set your own schedule, work from anywhere, and take on as much or as little as fits your life
• Build in-demand expertise — deepen your skills at the intersection of cybersecurity and AI, two of the hottest domains in the industry
• Grow with the work — strong performers have opportunities for expanded scope and contract extensions
