Job summary

Alignerr is seeking an Offensive Security Analyst to shape how AI understands cyber threats through modeling realistic attack scenarios. This remote, hourly contract role requires deep offensive security knowledge and the ability to articulate attacker behavior for AI training.

You'll analyze attack paths, gaps, and red-team narratives, and generate labeled data to evaluate frontier AI systems. Work independently on a flexible schedule, 10–40 hours per week, with potential for ongoing

Qualifications

• 2+ years of hands-on pentesting, red teaming, or blue-team work.
• Deep knowledge of real attacker techniques in production environments.
• Ability to articulate attack chains and risk to technical audiences.
• Detail-oriented with clear documentation.
• Ability to work independently across threat scenarios.

Responsibilities

• Analyze attack paths, kill chains, and adversary strategies across realistic environments.
• Identify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and defensive gaps across modern infrastructure.
• Review red-team scenarios and intrusion narratives for accuracy and real-world plausibility.
• Generate, label, and validate adversarial data used to train and evaluate frontier AI systems.
• Clearly explain how attacks propagate, where defenses fail, and how risk compounds across complex environments.
• Work independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule.

Job description

Offensive Security Analyst (Structured / Non-Exploit) — AI Training

What if your offensive security expertise could directly shape how AI understands cyber threats, adversary behavior, and real-world attack chains? We're looking for experienced security professionals to analyze and model realistic attack scenarios — helping train and evaluate the AI systems that will define the next generation of cybersecurity reasoning.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No exploit development required — just deep, practical knowledge of how real attacks unfold and a sharp ability to articulate what defenders miss.

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

What You'll Do

• Analyze attack paths, kill chains, and adversary strategies across realistic, production-style environments
• Identify and classify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and defensive gaps across modern infrastructure
• Review red-team style scenarios and intrusion narratives for accuracy, completeness, and real-world plausibility
• Generate, label, and validate adversarial reasoning data used to train and evaluate frontier AI systems
• Clearly explain how attacks propagate, where defenses fail, and how risk compounds across complex environments
• Work independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule

Who You Are

• 2+ years of hands‑on experience in pentesting, red teaming, or a blue‑team role with deep offensive knowledge
• Strong understanding of how real attacks unfold in production environments — from initial access to lateral movement and impact
• Able to think like an adversary and clearly communicate attack chains, tradeoffs, and impact to technical audiences
• Methodical and detail-oriented — you spot what others overlook and know how to document it clearly
• Comfortable working independently across a variety of threat scenarios and system types

Nice to Have

• Experience with threat modeling, adversary emulation, or structured red team engagements
• Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, Cyber Kill Chain, or OWASP
• Background in security architecture, incident response, or threat intelligence
• Prior experience with AI tools, data labeling, or evaluation workflows

Why Join Us

• Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside leading AI research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
• Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work
• Apply your offensive security expertise to a genuinely novel and high-impact domain
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
