About the Role
What if your security knowledge could train the next generation of AI systems to reason about risk the way a seasoned expert does?
Alignerr partners with the world's leading AI research labs to build and evaluate cutting-edge AI models. We're looking for application security professionals who understand how software truly breaks in production — and can translate that expertise into structured reasoning that teaches AI to assess, prioritize, and remediate vulnerabilities accurately.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. You set your own hours and work at your own pace.
- Organization: Alignerr
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Analyze realistic application security scenarios spanning code, APIs, and live system behavior
- Classify and assess vulnerabilities including authentication flaws, injection risks, access control gaps, and business logic issues
- Evaluate the quality of secure coding practices and proposed remediation strategies
- Build and validate security-focused reasoning datasets that teach AI how to think like an expert analyst
- Distinguish real-world exploitability from theoretical risk with clear, structured written reasoning
Who You Are
- 2+ years of hands-on experience in application, product, or software security
- Solid working knowledge of the OWASP Top 10 and how vulnerabilities manifest in production systems
- Able to think critically about risk — separating genuine threats from noise
- Strong written communication skills with the ability to explain security reasoning clearly and systematically
- Self-directed and comfortable working asynchronously on task-based assignments
Nice to Have
- Experience with penetration testing, secure code review, or bug bounty programs
- Familiarity with API security, cloud-native architectures, or DevSecOps practices
- Background in writing security documentation, threat models, or vulnerability reports
Why Join Us
- Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top research teams
- Fully remote and flexible — work when and where you want
- Freelance autonomy with the backing of a leading AI training organization
- Meaningful, intellectually engaging work that puts your security expertise to use in a new way
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
