Descrizione del lavoro

Alignerr is seeking an Offensive Security Analyst (Structured / Non-Exploit) to inform how AI understands and reasons about real-world threats. This remote, hourly contract role involves analyzing adversarial attack paths, modeling threat behavior, and contributing to safe AI training data.

Commitment ranges from 10–40 hours per week. You will work independently on task-based assignments, mapping attack chains, and identifying where defenses fail across diverse environments to produce precise,

Competenze

• 2+ years of hands-on pentesting, red teaming, or blue-team experience.
• Ability to clearly explain attack chains, attacker objectives, and defensive implications.
• Systematic, detail-oriented approach with adversary mindset and end-to-end threat mapping.
• Strong written communication translating complex concepts into structured analyses.

Mansioni

• Analyze real-world attack paths, kill chains, and adversary strategies across modern environments.
• Classify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and defensive gaps in realistic system scenarios.
• Review and evaluate red team-style scenarios and intrusion narratives for technical accuracy and depth.
• Generate, label, and validate adversarial reasoning data used to train and evaluate frontier AI systems.
• Articulate how attacks unfold, their impacts, and the defender tradeoffs in clear, structured language.
• Work independently and asynchronously on task-based assignments at your own pace.

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

About The Role

What if your offensive security instincts could directly shape how AI understands and reasons about real-world threats? We're looking for experienced security professionals to analyze adversarial attack paths, model threat behavior, and help build the next generation of AI systems that understand cybersecurity at a deep, practical level. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role — no exploit development required. You'll bring your red team mindset to structured adversarial reasoning: mapping how attacks unfold, where defenses break down, and how risk spreads across modern environments.

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

What You'll Do

• Analyze real-world attack paths, kill chains, and adversary strategies across a range of modern environments
• Classify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and defensive gaps in realistic system scenarios
• Review and evaluate red team-style scenarios and intrusion narratives for technical accuracy and depth
• Generate, label, and validate adversarial reasoning data used to train and evaluate frontier AI systems
• Articulate how attacks unfold, what impact they create, and what tradeoffs defenders face — in clear, structured language
• Work independently and asynchronously on task-based assignments at your own pace

Who You Are

• 2+ years of hands-on experience in pentesting, red teaming, or a blue-team role with deep attack knowledge
• You understand how real attacks actually unfold in production environments — not just in theory
• Able to clearly explain attack chains, attacker objectives, and defensive implications to a technical audience
• Naturally systematic and detail-oriented — you think in adversary mindsets and can map threat behavior end-to-end
• Strong written communicator who can translate complex technical concepts into structured, accessible analysis
• Comfortable working independently without close supervision

Nice to Have

• Experience with MITRE ATT&CK, threat modeling frameworks, or structured kill-chain analysis
• Background in threat intelligence, incident response, or security architecture
• Familiarity with cloud environments, Active Directory, or network security concepts
• Prior work annotating, labeling, or evaluating technical content
• Interest in AI safety, AI security, or how AI systems reason about complex domains

Why Join Us

• Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside leading AI research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — structure your work around your schedule
• Freelance autonomy with meaningful, intellectually engaging 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
