About the Role
What if your ability to think like an adversary could directly shape how AI understands and reasons about cybersecurity threats? We're looking for Offensive Security Analysts to work with realistic attack scenarios, model how threats move through systems, and help train the next generation of AI systems to reason about risk the way seasoned security professionals do.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role focused on structured adversarial reasoning — not exploit development. If you've spent time in pentesting, red teaming, or a hands-on blue-team role and know how real attacks unfold, your expertise is exactly what we need.
- Organization: Alignerr
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Analyze real-world attack paths, kill chains, and adversary strategies across modern production environments
- Identify and classify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and defensive gaps in realistic scenarios
- Review and evaluate 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 how attack chains unfold, what impact they carry, and where defenses fail
- Work independently and asynchronously on task-based assignments — fully on your own schedule
Who You Are
- 2+ years of hands-on experience in pentesting, red teaming, or a blue-team role with deep attack knowledge
- You understand how real attacks unfold in production environments — not just in theory
- You can break down complex attack chains into clear, structured reasoning that others can follow
- Detail-oriented and systematic — you notice what others miss and communicate it precisely
- Comfortable working independently without close supervision
- No exploit development experience required for this role
Nice to Have
- Familiarity with frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK, Cyber Kill Chain, or STRIDE
- Experience writing threat models, red-team reports, or security assessments
- Background in cloud security, network security, or enterprise infrastructure
- Prior exposure to AI systems, security research, or structured data labeling
- Relevant certifications such as OSCP, CEH, GPEN, or equivalent
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
- Apply your offensive security expertise to a domain that's shaping the future of technology
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
