About the Role

We're partnering with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, safer security intelligence — and we need practitioners who've lived it in the real world.

As a Network & Infrastructure Security Analyst, you'll analyze real-world enterprise security scenarios — firewall events, EDR alerts, email threats, and infrastructure misconfigurations — and use your hands-on experience to help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI systems. Your expertise directly shapes how AI understands, reasons about, and responds to cybersecurity threats.

This is a remote, flexible contract role ideal for experienced security professionals looking to contribute to frontier AI while working on their own schedule.

  • Organization: Alignerr
  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

  • Analyze network, endpoint, and email security scenarios across modern enterprise environments
  • Review firewall, EDR, SIEM, and infrastructure security cases to determine what went wrong and why
  • Classify incidents, misconfigurations, and control failures based on realistic operational data
  • Create, label, and validate security training and evaluation datasets used to improve AI systems
  • Clearly articulate root causes, attacker techniques, and business impact in structured formats
  • Work independently and asynchronously on task-based assignments

Who You Are

  • 2+ years of hands-on experience in network, infrastructure, or endpoint security roles
  • Familiar with enterprise security tooling: firewalls, EDR platforms, email security gateways, IAM, and SIEMs
  • Strong understanding of how real organizations deploy, operate, and fail at security controls
  • Able to communicate complex security issues clearly — not just identify them, but explain them
  • Detail-oriented with a systematic approach to analysis
  • Self-motivated and comfortable working remotely without close supervision

Nice to Have

  • Experience with threat hunting, incident response, or security operations
  • Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, NIST, or CIS Controls
  • Background in red team, blue team, or purple team activities
  • Prior experience contributing to AI, data labeling, or security research projects

Why Join Us

  • Work directly on frontier AI systems with top-tier research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and meaningful contribution to AI safety
  • Put your real-world security knowledge to use in a uniquely impactful way
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
