Offensive Security Analyst (Structured / Non-Exploit)
About this role
About the Role What if your offensive security expertise could directly shape how AI understands cyber threats, adversary behavior, and real-world attack chains? We're looking for experienced security professionals to analyze and model realistic attack scenarios — helping train and evaluate the AI systems that will define the next generation of cybersecurity reasoning. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No exploit development required — just deep, practical knowledge of how real attacks unfold and a sharp ability to articulate what defenders miss. - 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-style environments - Identify and classify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and defensive gaps across modern infrastructure - Review red-team style scenarios and intrusion narratives for accuracy, completeness, and real-world plausibility - Generate, label, and validate adversarial reasoning data used to train and evaluate frontier AI systems - Clearly explain how attacks propagate, where defenses fail, and how risk compounds across complex environments - Work independently and asynchronously — 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 offensive knowledge - Strong understanding of how real attacks unfold in production environments — from initial access to lateral movement and impact - Able to think like an adversary and clearly communicate attack chains, tradeoffs, and impact to technical audiences - Methodical and detail-oriented — you spot what others overlook and know how to document it clearly - Comfortable working independently across a variety of threat scenarios and system types Nice to Have - Experience with threat modeling, adversary emulation, or structured red team engagements - Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, Cyber Kill Chain, or OWASP - Background in security architecture, incident response, or threat intelligence - Prior experience with AI tools, data labeling, or evaluation workflows Why Join Us - Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside leading AI 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 genuinely novel and high-impact domain - Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
