Cloud Security Analyst (AI Training)
About The Role
We partner with the world's leading AI research teams to build and evaluate cutting-edge AI models. Right now, we need experienced cloud security practitioners to help train AI systems to reason accurately about how cloud environments fail in the real world.
This isn't a typical security role. Your hands-on knowledge of misconfigurations, IAM failures, and cloud incidents will directly shape how AI understands and responds to modern infrastructure threats.
• 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, misconfigurations, and failure patterns
• Review and evaluate IAM, networking, storage, and container security issues for real-world accuracy
• Classify security gaps and cloud-related failures based on their actual business and operational impact
• Validate and improve AI-generated security reasoning so it reflects how cloud incidents truly unfold
• Provide structured, expert feedback that helps frontier AI models think like a seasoned cloud security professional
Who You Are
• 2+ years of hands-on experience working with cloud environments in production
• Strong familiarity with cloud IAM, networking, storage, and container security concepts
• Real-world experience with misconfigurations and security incidents — you've seen what actually goes wrong
• Able to clearly reason about blast radius, risk exposure, and downstream business impact
• Self-directed and comfortable working asynchronously on your own schedule
Nice to Have
• Experience across multiple cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure)
• Background in cloud security architecture, penetration testing, or incident response
• Familiarity with frameworks like CIS Benchmarks, NIST, or CSA CCM
• Prior experience contributing to AI training, data labeling, or security research projects
Why Join Us
• Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — set your own hours and work on your own terms
• Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and collaboration with a global expert community
• Make a meaningful impact by shaping how AI understands real-world cloud security
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
