• Validate and improve AI-generated security reasoning to ensure it reflects how cloud incidents actually unfold


• Provide structured, expert feedback that directly shapes how AI understands cloud security

Who You Are

• 2+ years of hands-on experience working with cloud environments in production


• Strong familiarity with cloud IAM, networking, storage, and container security concepts


• Experience identifying and reasoning through real-world misconfigurations and security incidents


• Able to think clearly about blast radius, risk exposure, and business impact


• Self-directed and comfortable working asynchronously on task-based assignments

Nice to Have

• Experience in cloud security engineering, DevSecOps, or penetration testing


• Familiarity with cloud security frameworks (CIS Benchmarks, CSPM tools, etc.)


• Background in incident response or cloud threat modeling


• Security certifications (AWS Security Specialty, CCSP, etc.)

Why Join Us

• Work directly on frontier AI systems with top research labs


• Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule


• Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration


• Make a tangible impact on how AI reasons about real-world cloud security


• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
