Job description
Cloud Security Analyst (AI Training)
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
