At Alignerr, we partner with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, safer AI systems. We're looking for experienced data security professionals to help train and evaluate AI that reasons about sensitive information, data leakage, and protection controls.

This is a unique opportunity to apply your real-world security knowledge to frontier AI — analyzing how data leaks happen, how they're detected, and how organizations respond. Your expertise directly shapes how the next generation of AI understands data risk.

What You'll Do

  • Classify data sensitivity levels, exposure paths, and policy violations
  • Evaluate prevention, detection, and incident response strategies
  • Generate, label, and validate data security cases used to train and benchmark AI systems
  • Apply your practical knowledge to help AI reason accurately about data risk in real-world contexts

Who You Are

  • 2 years of experience in data security, compliance, or security operations
  • Hands-on familiarity with DLP tools, data classification frameworks, and privacy or regulatory standards
  • Strong practical understanding of how sensitive data is exposed and protected in real environments
  • Detail-oriented with the ability to analyze complex scenarios and articulate clear findings
  • Self-motivated and comfortable working independently on a flexible schedule

Nice to Have

  • Experience with cloud security platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) or SaaS security tools
  • Background in compliance frameworks such as GDPR, HIPAA, or SOC 2
  • Familiarity with AI systems or data annotation workflows

Why Join Us

  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your schedule, at your own pace
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and collaboration with a global team
  • Make a meaningful impact on how AI handles sensitive data and security reasoning
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
