What are the responsibilities and job description for the Purple Team Engineer position at DataAnnotation?
We are looking for experienced cybersecurity professionals to join our team to help train AI models. In this role, you will evaluate AI-generated security content, solve technical cybersecurity problems, and provide feedback to improve how AI systems reason about real-world threats and defenses.
Cybersecurity platforms are increasingly powered by AI, but these systems still require practitioners with real-world experience to validate their outputs. You will work directly with advanced AI models to assess their accuracy, strengthen their reasoning, and contribute to building more reliable tools for the cybersecurity industry.
Benefits
To get started, you will complete a short assessment. If successful, you will gain access to paid work through our platform. Payment is made via PayPal. We will never ask for any money from you. This role is only available to candidates in the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand.
