Job description

AI / Emerging Tech Security Analyst (AI Training)
About the Role
What if your security expertise could directly shape how the world's most powerful AI systems defend themselves against attack? We're looking for AI Security Analysts to probe, stress-test, and evaluate frontier AI models - identifying real vulnerabilities before bad actors do.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for security professionals who are curious about AI and want to work at the intersection of two of the most critical fields in tech. You'll work directly with cutting-edge AI systems, analyzing how they behave under adversarial conditions and helping ensure they remain safe, reliable, and aligned with security best practices.
  • Organization
    : Alignerr
  • Type
    : Hourly Contract
  • Location
    : Remote
  • Commitment
    : 10-40 hours/week
What You'll Do
  • Analyze AI and LLM security scenarios to understand how models respond to adversarial, unexpected, or edge-case conditions
  • Investigate prompt injection attacks, data leakage vectors, model abuse patterns, and system misuse cases
  • Classify identified security issues by real-world impact and likelihood, and recommend appropriate mitigations
  • Evaluate AI system behavior against security best practices and help improve model safety and reliability
  • Document findings clearly and consistently using structured evaluation formats
  • Work independently and asynchronously on task-based assignments - fully on your own schedule
Who You Are
  • Background in cybersecurity, information security, or a closely related field
  • Strong understanding of security threat modeling, attack surfaces, and risk classification
  • Familiar with how modern AI and LLM systems are built, deployed, and potentially exploited
  • Analytically sharp and naturally curious - you enjoy pulling systems apart to understand how they fail
  • Precise and methodical when documenting complex findings and risk assessments
  • Comfortable working independently across ambiguous, emerging problem spaces
Nice to Have
  • Hands-on experience with penetration testing, red teaming, or vulnerability research
  • Familiarity with prompt engineering, LLM behavior, or AI safety concepts
  • Background in application security, API security, or cloud security
  • Experience evaluating AI tools or platforms from a risk or compliance perspective
  • Knowledge of adversarial machine learning or AI robustness research
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, high-impact work
  • Be at the forefront of AI security - a field that is defining the next decade of tech
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
