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 frontier AI models for vulnerabilities, misuse scenarios, and adversarial weaknesses — helping ensure that cutting‑edge AI remains safe, reliable, and aligned with security best practices.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for security professionals who are curious about how AI systems are built, deployed, and potentially exploited. If you think like an attacker and care about building safer technology, this role was made for you.

  • 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 behave under 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 flag risks before they become problems
  • Work with realistic, high‑stakes scenarios drawn from frontier AI deployments
  • Complete task‑based assignments independently on your own schedule
Who You Are
  • Background in cybersecurity, information security, or a closely related technical field
  • Solid understanding of modern threat modeling — and a genuine curiosity about how it applies to AI systems
  • Familiar with attack surface analysis, adversarial thinking, and risk classification
  • Analytical and precise — you enjoy pulling apart complex systems to find what breaks
  • Comfortable working independently and delivering structured, well‑reasoned findings
  • Self‑motivated and reliable when working without supervision
Nice to Have
  • Hands‑on experience with penetration testing, red teaming, or vulnerability research
  • Familiarity with large language models, AI APIs, or modern AI deployment architectures
  • Background in application security, cloud security, or secure software development
  • Prior experience evaluating or auditing AI or ML systems for safety or misuse
  • Knowledge of AI safety, alignment, or responsible AI frameworks
Why Join Us
  • Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside leading research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
  • Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task‑based work
  • Contribute to a mission that matters: keeping powerful AI systems safe and secure
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
