About the Role
What if your security expertise could directly shape how the world's most advanced AI systems defend themselves against attack? We're looking for AI / Emerging Tech Security Analysts to probe, evaluate, and stress-test cutting-edge AI models — identifying the vulnerabilities, misuse vectors, and adversarial scenarios that could compromise real-world AI deployments.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for security professionals who are curious about how modern AI systems fail — and how to make them stronger.
- 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, edge-case, or unexpected conditions
- Review and evaluate cases involving prompt injection, data leakage, model abuse, jailbreaking, and system misuse
- Classify security issues by real-world impact and likelihood, and recommend appropriate mitigations
- Apply threat modeling frameworks to emerging AI technologies and novel attack surfaces
- Help evaluate and improve AI system behavior so it remains safe, reliable, and aligned with security best practices
- Work independently on task-based assignments — fully on your own schedule
Who You Are
- Background in cybersecurity, information security, or a closely related field
- Solid understanding of threat modeling, vulnerability assessment, and risk classification
- Genuinely curious about how AI systems are built, deployed, and potentially exploited
- Analytical and precise — you think in edge cases and know how to document findings clearly
- Comfortable working independently on complex, open-ended security problems
Nice to Have
- Hands-on experience with penetration testing, red teaming, or adversarial research
- Familiarity with large language models (LLMs), prompt engineering, or AI safety concepts
- Background in application security, API security, or ML infrastructure
- Experience evaluating or auditing AI/ML systems in production environments
- Prior work in emerging technology risk, AI governance, 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, impactful work
- Contribute to AI safety research that has real consequences for how AI is deployed in the world
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
