AI​/Emerging Tech Security Analyst

About the Role

What if your security expertise could directly shape how the world's most advanced AI systems defend against attacks, misuse, and abuse? We're looking for AI Security Analysts to stress-test frontier models - probing for weaknesses, classifying threats, and helping ensure that cutting-edge AI stays safe, reliable, and aligned with real-world security standards.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for security professionals who are curious about how modern AI systems can be exploited - and how to stop it.

• Analyze AI and LLM security scenarios to understand how models behave under adversarial, unexpected, or edge-case conditions
• Investigate prompt injection attacks, data leakage risks, model abuse vectors, and system misuse patterns
• Classify security vulnerabilities and evaluate appropriate mitigations based on real-world impact and likelihood
• Apply threat modeling frameworks to emerging AI technologies and deployment scenarios
• Help evaluate and improve AI system behavior so it remains safe, robust, and aligned with security best practices
• Work independently on task-based assignments on your own schedule

• Background in cybersecurity, information security, or a closely related field
• Strong understanding of modern threat modeling and how it applies to AI and LLM systems
• Familiar with attack vectors such as prompt injection, adversarial inputs, and data exfiltration in AI contexts
• Analytically sharp - you approach complex systems methodically and document findings with precision
• Naturally curious about how AI systems are built, deployed, and potentially exploited
• Self-motivated and reliable when working independently without close supervision

• Hands-on experience with red teaming, penetration testing, or vulnerability research
• Familiarity with large language models (LLMs), generative AI tools, or AI deployment pipelines
• Background in application security, cloud security, or API security
• Experience with security frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK, OWASP, or NIST
• Prior exposure to AI safety, alignment research, or responsible AI development

• Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside leading research labs and teams
• Fully remote and flexible - work when and where it suits you
• Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, high-impact task-based work
• Be at the forefront of one of the most critical and fast-moving fields in technology
• Contribute to AI security research that has a real, tangible impact on how AI is deployed in the world
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
