Alignerr
Phoenix, AZ Contractor
POSTED ON 6/28/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 7/28/2026
Cloud Security Analyst (AI Training)

About The Role

We partner with the world's leading AI research teams and labs to build and train cutting-edge AI models. Right now, we're building datasets and evaluations focused on cloud security and modern infrastructure — and we need practitioners who truly understand how cloud environments fail in the real world.

This is a unique opportunity to apply your hands-on cloud security knowledge to directly influence how the next generation of AI reasons about security incidents, misconfigurations, and risk.

  • 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 assess IAM, networking, storage, and container security issues
  • Classify security gaps, misconfigurations, and cloud-related failures based on real-world impact
  • Validate and improve AI-generated security reasoning so it accurately reflects how cloud incidents actually unfold
  • Help ensure AI systems reason correctly about blast radius, risk exposure, and business impact

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 concepts
  • Familiarity with real-world misconfigurations and security incidents across major cloud providers
  • Able to reason clearly and precisely about security risk, blast radius, and downstream business impact
  • Strong written communication skills for structured feedback and documentation

Nice to Have

  • Experience with cloud security tooling (e.g., AWS Security Hub, GCP Security Command Center, Microsoft Defender for Cloud)
  • Background in penetration testing, threat modeling, or incident response
  • Familiarity with compliance frameworks such as CIS Benchmarks, SOC 2, or NIST
  • Prior experience contributing to AI training or evaluation projects

Why Join Us

  • Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
  • Contribute meaningful work that shapes how AI understands cloud security
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
