About the Role
We partner with the world's leading AI research teams to build and evaluate cutting-edge AI models. Right now, we're looking for experienced cloud security practitioners to help train AI systems to reason accurately about how cloud environments fail in the real world.
This is a unique opportunity to do meaningful, high-impact work at the intersection of cloud security and frontier AI — entirely on your own schedule.
- Organization: Alignerr
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Analyze real-world cloud security scenarios across AWS, GCP, and Azure to identify risks and failure patterns
- Review and evaluate IAM configurations, networking setups, storage policies, and container security issues
- Classify security gaps, misconfigurations, and cloud-related failures based on real-world impact and blast radius
- Validate and improve AI-generated security reasoning so it accurately reflects how cloud incidents actually unfold
- Provide structured, expert feedback that directly improves AI security capabilities
Who You Are
- 2+ years of hands-on experience working with cloud environments in production
- Solid understanding of cloud IAM, networking, storage, and container security across one or more major cloud platforms
- Familiar with real-world misconfigurations, incident patterns, and how breaches propagate
- Able to think clearly and communicate precisely about blast radius, risk exposure, and business impact
- Self-motivated and comfortable working independently on async, task-based assignments
Nice to Have
- Experience with cloud security tools, frameworks, or certifications (e.g., AWS Security Specialty, CCSP, CKS)
- Background in incident response, penetration testing, or cloud architecture review
- Familiarity with AI evaluation or data annotation workflows
Why Join Us
- Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top research labs
- Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
- Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
- Make a tangible impact on how AI understands and reasons about cloud security
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
