Offensive Security Analyst (Structured / Non-Exploit)

Alignerr
York, NY Contractor
POSTED ON 4/12/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/11/2026
About The Role

What if your ability to think like an adversary could directly shape how AI understands and reasons about cybersecurity threats? We're looking for experienced offensive security professionals to analyze real-world attack paths, model adversarial behavior, and help build the training data that powers next-generation AI systems.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role — no exploit development required. The focus is on structured adversarial reasoning: understanding how threats move through systems, where defenses break down, and how risk propagates across modern environments.

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

What You'll Do

  • Analyze attack paths, kill chains, and adversary strategies across realistic production-like environments
  • Identify and classify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and defensive gaps
  • Review red-team style scenarios and intrusion narratives for accuracy and completeness
  • Generate, label, and validate adversarial reasoning data used to train and evaluate AI systems
  • Clearly articulate attack chains, impact assessments, and security tradeoffs in structured formats
  • Work independently and asynchronously on task-based assignments — fully on your own schedule

Who You Are

  • 2 years of hands-on experience in pentesting, red teaming, or a blue-team role with deep attack knowledge
  • Strong understanding of how real attacks unfold in production environments — from initial access to impact
  • Able to think through attacker decision-making, lateral movement, and persistence techniques
  • Clear communicator who can break down complex attack chains into precise, structured explanations
  • Detail-oriented and methodical — you care about getting the analysis right

Nice to Have

  • Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, Cyber Kill Chain, or STRIDE
  • Experience writing threat models, red team reports, or security assessments
  • Background in threat intelligence, incident response, or adversary emulation
  • Exposure to cloud, OT/ICS, or enterprise network security environments
  • Prior experience contributing to AI or data labeling projects

Why Join Us

  • Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside leading research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
  • Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work
  • Apply your offensive security expertise to a domain that's genuinely shaping the future
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
