About The Role

We're partnering with leading AI research labs to build smarter, more accurate AI security systems — and we need practitioners who understand how cloud environments actually fail in the real world.

This is your opportunity to apply your hands-on cloud security experience to frontier AI development. You'll analyze real-world scenarios, validate AI-generated reasoning, and help shape how the next generation of AI understands cloud risk.

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

What You'll Do

  • Analyze cloud security scenarios across AWS, GCP, and Azure to identify risks and failure patterns
  • Review and evaluate 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
  • 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 concepts
  • Experienced with real-world misconfigurations and security incidents
  • Able to reason clearly about blast radius, risk exposure, and business impact
  • Strong written communication skills for documenting findings and feedback
  • Self-motivated and comfortable working independently on task-based assignments

Nice to Have

  • Experience with cloud security tooling (GuardDuty, Security Command Center, Defender for Cloud, etc.)
  • Background in penetration testing, red teaming, or incident response
  • Familiarity with frameworks like CIS Benchmarks, NIST, or CSA CCM
  • Prior experience with AI evaluation or data annotation workflows

Why Join Us

  • Work directly on frontier AI systems with top research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
  • Make a meaningful impact on how AI reasons about real-world cloud security
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
