The Role

What if your red-team instincts and adversarial thinking could directly influence how AI understands cybersecurity threats? We're looking for Offensive Security Analysts to analyze real-world attack paths, model adversary behavior, and help build AI systems that reason about risk the way the best security professionals do.

This role is focused on structured adversarial reasoning — not exploit development. You'll work with realistic attack scenarios, classify weaknesses, and produce the kind of high-signal security analysis that helps frontier AI models think more clearly about how threats actually unfold.

Fully remote and flexible. Work on your own schedule.

• 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 misconfigurations, weaknesses, and gaps in defensive coverage
• Review red-team-style scenarios and intrusion narratives for accuracy and completeness
• Generate, label, and validate adversarial reasoning data used to train and evaluate AI systems
• Clearly articulate attack chains, business impact, and risk tradeoffs in structured formats
• Work independently and asynchronously on task-based assignments

Who You Are

• 2+ years of hands-on experience in pentesting, red teaming, or a blue-team role with deep offensive knowledge
• You understand how real attacks unfold in production environments — not just in theory
• You can map a threat from initial access to impact and explain every step along the way
• Strong written communicator — you can translate technical attack logic into clear, structured analysis
• Detail-oriented and methodical in your approach
• No exploit development or active intrusion required for this role

Nice to Have

• Experience with threat modeling frameworks (MITRE ATT&CK, STRIDE, PASTA, etc.)
• Background in cloud security, Active Directory environments, or enterprise infrastructure
• Familiarity with intrusion detection, SOC operations, or incident response
• Prior experience producing security documentation, reports, or training content
• Exposure to AI tools or data labeling workflows

Why Join Us

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